2-Deoxy-D-arabinohexose, 2-Deoxyglucose Aldrich says that these two names are synonyms of one another.  Does anyone know the etymology of arabinohexose used in this context?
Actually arabinohexose got its name from the family of six carbon membered mono saccharide(i.e. aldohexose) and the first name arabinose is taken from the another popular name i.e. gum arabica because it was first extracted from it!
