- When some sugars dissolve in water they spontaneously undergo changes in optical rotation called mutarrotation. The Mutarrotation of D-glucopyranose is catalyzed by acid and bases. 2-Hydroxypyridine is a more effective catalyst than phenol and pyridine for this reaction because: a.Both oxygen and N in 2-hydroxypyridine act as bases increasing the rapid interconversion of sugar b. The OH of 2-hydroxypyridine serves as the base while the current N as the acid. c. 2-hydroxypyridine acts both as a base to remove the proton from the hydroxyl group in the hemiacetal and as an acid to provide a proton to the oxygen in the hemiacetal. d.Phenol and pyridine are very expensive.arrow_forwardIn the conversion of acetone to aceto-cyanohydrin, the effect of electron-donating substituents on the tetrahedral intermediate is to: a) stabilize the charge on oxygen b) make the intermediate more crowded c) destabilize the charge on oxygen d) destabilize the carbocation formedarrow_forwardA) Describe substrate structure and condition that favor SN1 reactions taking place over SN2.
