Conduritol or 1,2,3,4-cyclohexenetetrol is any of the with chemical formula C6H10O4, that can be seen as derivatives of cyclohexene with four hydroxyl functional group (OH) replacing hydrogen atoms on the four carbon atoms not adjacent to the double bond. They are therefore cyclic or . (1990) Tetrahedron, Vol 46, No 11, 3715 - 3742.
The compounds in this group exhibit cis–trans isomerism, with six isomers that differ by the relative positions of the hydroxyls compared to the mean plane of the ring. In addition, some of these can exist as two distinct .
Only the A and B isomers have been found in nature. The first conduritol was isolated in 1908 by K. Kübler K. Kübler (1908), Arch. Phann. Ber. Stsch. Pharm. 246,620. from the bark of the vine Ruehssia cundurango subsp. cundurango (syn. Marsdenia cundurango), hence its name.
