L-xylo-2-Hexulosonic Acid Hydrate is the direct precursor of vitamin C (A786990); a physiological antioxidant and coenzyme for a number of hydroxylation reactions. Required for collagen synthesis and widely distributed in plants and animals. Inadequate intake results in deficiency syndromes such as scurvy. Also used as an antimicrobial and antioxidant in foodstuffs. | [Definition]
ChEBI: 2-dehydro-L-idonic acid is a ketoaldonic acid. It is functionally related to a L-idonic acid and a L-gulonic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 2-dehydro-L-idonate. |
