Chapter 20, Problem 68P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A structure for the disaccharide is to be proposed.

Concept Introduction:

The disaccharides formed from the monosaccharide units that are connected with each other through the glycosidic bonds.  Glycosidic bonds are the type of covalent bonds.  The condensation reactions are also involved in the formation of disaccharides.  The elimination of water molecules takes place during the condensation reactions.

Monosaccharide units are made from the biomolecules that comprise carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms.  These molecules cannot be broken into the simpler compounds.  The numbers of isomers are obtained from biomolecules due to the chiral nature of carbon atoms.

An unknown disaccharide gives a positive Tollens’ test. A glycosidase hydrolyzes it to d-galactose and d-mannose. When the disaccharide is treated with methyl iodide and Ag2O and then hydrolyzed with dilute HCl, the products are 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methylgalactose and 2,3,4-tri-O-methylmannose. Propose a structure for the disaccharide.
Consider D-idose1) Using Haworth, draw Beta and Alpha anomer of D-idose.2) Draw a disaccharide made up of 2 Alpha anomers of D-idose linked through Alpha-1,6 glycosidic bond
Raffinose is a trisaccharide (C18H32O16) isolated from cottonseed meal. Raffinose doesnot reduce Tollens reagent, and it does not mutarotate. Complete hydrolysis of raffinosegives d-glucose, d-fructose, and d-galactose. When raffinose is treated with invertase,the products are d-fructose and a reducing disaccharide called melibiose. Raffinose isunaffected by treatment with a b@galactosidase, but an a@galactosidase hydrolyzes itto d-galactose and sucrose. When raffinose is treated with dimethyl sulfate and basefollowed by hydrolysis, the products are 2,3,4-tri-O-methylglucose, 1,3,4,6-tetraO-methylfructose, and 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methylgalactose. Determine the completestructures of raffinose and melibiose, and give a systematic name for melibiose.
