Xylitol pentacetate is an organic compound with the formula C15H22O10. It is an acetylated sugar alcohol that is used as an intermediary in the production of xylitol pentanitrate.[2] It is also commonly made to isolate and identify xylitol from complex organic mixtures.[3][1]
Synthesis
Xylitol pentacetate is made by the addition of acetic anhydride and sodium acetate to xylitol.[1]
