Interpretation: The structure for
Concept introduction: The reaction of hydroxyl groups of a monosaccharide with inorganic oxyacids results in the formation of inorganic esters. Phosphoric acid gives phosphate esters. Phosphate esters are commonly found in biological systems. The esterification of hemiacetal group on carbon 1 and the primary alcohol on carbon 6 gives phosphate esters.
