Strain-driven epimerization is a concept in organic chemistry that relies on the intrinsic strain or energy associated with a specific conformation of a molecule. When a sugar molecule is forced into a strained conformation, it becomes more susceptible to epimerization at certain chiral centers. This concept can be harnessed to selectively convert one sugar epimer into another.
