Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of th…
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotat…

Chapter 21, Problem 21.16P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The cyanohydrin and carbonyl compound formed by the metabolism of amygdalin are to be stated.

Concept introduction: Amygdalin is a derivative of cyanohydrin. The metabolism of amygdalin involves two steps. The first step is the metabolism of amygdalin to form cyanohydrin. The second step is the further metabolism of cyanohydrin into carbonyl compound (aldehyde). Both steps of this metabolism utilize specific enzymes.
