The synthesis of sucrose from C{sup 14}0{sub 22} by green algae has been investigated and the intermediates separated by the method of paper chromatography. It is shown that sucrose is the first free sugar appearing during photosynthesis. It is apparently formed by condensation of the glucose-I-phosphate and a fructose phosphate.

The results indicate that 2-phosphoglyceric acid is the first product synthesized from C0{sub 2} during photosynthesis.
