To synthesize D-galactose, a student went to the stockroom to get some D-lyxose to use as a starting material. She found that the labels had fallen off the bottles containing D-lyxose and D-xylose. How can she determine which bottle contains D-lyxose?
If anisole is allowed to sit in D2O that contains a small amount of D2SO4, what products are formed?
In 1891, Emil Fischer determined the structures of glucose and the seven other d-aldohexoses using only simple chemical reactions and clever reasoning about stereochemistry andsymmetry. He received the Nobel Prize for this work in 1902. Fischer had determined thatd-glucose is an aldohexose, and he used Ruff degradations to degrade it to (+)-glyceraldehyde. Therefore, the eight d-aldohexose structures shown in Figure 23-3 are the possiblestructures for glucose.Pretend that no names are shown in Figure 23-3 except for glyceraldehyde, and usethe following results to prove which of these structures represent glucose, mannose,arabinose, and erythrose.(a) Upon Ruff degradation, glucose and mannose give the same aldopentose: arabinose.Nitric acid oxidation of arabinose gives an optically active aldaric acid.
