Abstract
The present disclosure describes compositions comprising substantially pure ribitol, pharmaceutical compositions of ribitol, and methods of making ribitol. The methods may include combining a reducing agent (e.g., borohydride) and ribose (e.g. D-ribose), optionally with stirring, to form a first reaction mixture; and contacting the first reaction mixture and an acidic quenching agent, optionally with stirring, to form a second reaction mixture, thereby forming ribitol.
