Question
Chapter 15, Problem 15.51AQAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The differences in the Fischer projections of D-galactose and L-galactose should be examined.
Concept introduction:
► Fischer projection involves 2D representation of a 3D structure through vertical and horizontal lines. The vertical lines represent groups that project out of the plane of the paper while horizontal lines represent groups that point to the back of the paper. The intersection represents a carbon atom
► Application of Fischer projections is to differentiate enantiomers
