Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify.

Purpose and description
Enable an agent to identify keto-D-fructose, assess evidence for its presence and abundance in a material, and select appropriate analytical or handling actions.
Keto-D-fructose is the open-chain form of D-fructose, a six-carbon monosaccharide with a ketone group at carbon 2 and the absolute configuration (3S,4R,5R).
It can be Resolve a proposed chemical record against the open-chain structure and identify broader mappings.; Specify an assay capable of separating open-chain abundance from total fructose.; Compare speciation measurements obtained under compatible conditions.; Calculate open-chain concentration when total concentration and species fraction share a valid basis.; Assess whether a property or handling record applies to the sample and intended operation..
Distinguishing features
Match an acyclic six-carbon structure with a C2 ketone and the stereochemistry encoded by ChEBI, rather than identifying it from the name fructose alone. Reference: [ChEBI structure](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/CHEBI:48095).
Verify D-fructose stereochemistry; keto-L-fructose is the enantiomer and cannot be distinguished by molecular formula alone. Reference: [ChEBI relationships](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/CHEBI:48095).
Require evidence of the open-chain form before interpreting a total-fructose assay as a measurement of this species.
Reject mappings to 5-keto-D-fructose: that record has formula C6H10O6, whereas this entry has C6H12O6. References: [PubChem 5-keto-D-fructose](https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/99513), [ChEBI keto-D-fructose](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/CHEBI:48095).

+ Relationships to cyclic D-fructose forms and the broader D-fructose concept
+ Evidence for open-chain abundance under specified sample conditions
+ Chemical purity, stereochemical purity and sample composition
+ Applicability of physical-property, hazard and regulatory records to the represented species
- Cyclic fructofuranose and fructopyranose forms as independently modelled species

Characteristics
- Molecular identity
- C6H12O6; neutral open-chain D-fructose; CHEBI:48095 Anchors the species independently of commercial naming; supported by [ChEBI](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/CHEBI:48095).
- Identifier equivalence
- Exact species match | broader D-fructose record | unresolved mapping Prevents a shared identifier from transferring properties of bulk fructose to the open-chain species.
- Open-chain fraction
- mol/mol of total D-fructose, with uncertainty and detection limit Separates species abundance from total fructose concentration.
- Total D-fructose concentration
- mol/L or mol/kg, with denominator and sample basis Provides the reference quantity for calculating an open-chain concentration.
- Speciation conditions
- Solvent, temperature in K, pH where meaningful, concentration and elapsed time Makes abundance measurements comparable and limits their transfer to other samples.
- Purity basis
- Mass fraction of fructose, D-enantiomer fraction and open-chain mole fraction recorded separately A high fructose assay does not establish a high open-chain fraction.
- Physical-property attribution
- Species-specific | equilibrium mixture | bulk solid | predicted | unresolved Controls whether melting, boiling, decomposition or solubility data apply.
- Handling evidence
- Applicable supplier SDS, jurisdiction, material form, revision date and intended operation Connects handling decisions to the actual material rather than a molecular label.

Purity interpretation
Interpret supplier grade and assay without treating either as an open-chain specification.
