Question
Chapter 11, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The structure and formation of ß-anomer from a-anomer should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Anomers are the glycosides or cyclic monosaccharides that are epimers. These are different from each other in the configuration of C-1 (aldoses) or at C-2 if (ketoses).

Draw the structure.
Saccharide X occurs in the roots of several species of plants. Deduce the structure of saccharide x from the following data:
1. Acidic hydrolysis of 1 mol of stachyose yields 2 mol of D-galactose, 1 mol of D-glucose, and 1 mol of D-fructose.
2. Stachyose is a nonreducing sugar.
3. Treating stachyose with an a-galactosidase produces a mixture containing D-galactose, sucrose, and a nonreducing trisaccharide called
raffinose.
4. Acidic hydrolysis of raffinose gives D-glucose, D-fructose, and D-galactose. Treating raffinose with an a-galactosidase yields D-galactose
and sucrose. Treating raffinose with invertase (an enzyme that hydrolyzes sucrose) yields fructose and melibiose
5. Methylation of saccharide x followed by hydrolysis yields 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methyl-D-galactose, 2,3,4-tri-0-methyl-D-galactose,
2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-D-glucose, and 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-methyl-D-fructose.
On the trail of carbons. Tissue culture cells were incubated with
glutamine labeled with 15NN in the amide group. Subsequently,
