Cyclic structure of xylose?

Xylose is a 5-carbon sugar that can form a cyclic structure through intramolecular reaction between the C1 carbonyl group and the C5 hydroxyl group. This forms a six-membered ring called a pyranose ring, with oxygen at the anomeric position. The cyclic form of xylose is more common in solution than the open-chain form.
