l-Streptose is a branched monosaccharide similar to apiose in structure. l-Streptose is one of the sugars in streptomycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic that has toxic effects in the kidney and other side effects.

l-Streptose has been prepared from a carbohydrate derivative.^[1] The protected monosaccharide was reacted with an organolithium sulfur compound and then catalytically hydrolyzed to produce l-streptose.
