Best Answer

D and L forms of monosaccharides refer to the configuration of the highest-numbered chiral carbon in a sugar molecule. In the D form, the hydroxyl group on the highest-numbered chiral carbon is on the right side, while in the L form, it is on the left side. The designation of D or L does not indicate the direction of optical rotation.
