Uniformly labeled D-glucose, D-fructose, and sucrose are prepared by photosynthesis using an appropriate plant and isotopic carbon dioxide 248), Similarly, uniformly labeled D-galactose is obtained by photosynthesis with C 02 and the red alga Irideae laminarioides, where it occurs as a 2-glycerol D-galactopyranoside (65).
