Abstract: D-Galactose phenylhydrazone was degraded with H₂O₂ in the presence of molybdate ions to D-lyxose in 50% yield. The oxidative degrdn. of D-galactose 2,5-dichlorophenylhydrazone and D-galactose 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone gave D-lyxose and D-galactose in the ratio 4:1 and 1:9, resp. 2,6-Anhydro-1-deoxy-1-nitro-D-galactitol was prepd. from D-lyxose.
