I might be in the minority opinion here but personally I wouldn't 
use D for enterprise applications in a Fortune 500 type 
environment unless there was a significant order of magnitude 
advantage to doing so (i.e. some niche that D really shines in 
compared to Java/C#). I'd say this for the following reasons:

a. Eco-system. D is a great language but it's eco-system of 
libraries is very weak compared to more mature stacks, 
integration in a heterogeneous enterprise environment is not 
going to be D's forte.

b. Talent availability. Java/C# developers are easy to find, D 
not so much
