Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The use of periodic acid as a distinguishing reagent between an aldohexose and a ketohexose. Further, the product formed with each of the compounds and the respective number of molar equivalents of HIO4 consumed is also to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

▸ The aldose or ketose carbon sugars that have six membered carbon atoms are referred to as aldohexoses and ketohexoses, respectively. Glucose is an example of aldohexose and fructose is an example of ketohexose. The structures of each have been described below:

▸ Furthermore, both the aldohexoses and ketohexoses undergo periodate oxidation, in order to yield different products, as a result of the cleavage of the CC bonds.

Predict the products formed when the following sugars react with excess acetic anhydrideand pyridine.(a) a-d-glucopyranose
d-Glucuronic acid is found widely in plants and animals. One of its functions is to detoxify poisonous HO-containing compounds by reacting with them in the liver to form glucuronides. Glucuronides are water soluble and, therefore, readily excreted. After ingestion of a poison such as turpentine or phenol, the glucuronides of these compounds are found in urine. Draw the structure of the glucuronide formed by the reaction of beta-d-glucuronic acid and phenol.
3-Fucosyllactose is another HMO found in breast milk. (a) Locate any acetal and hemiacetal. (b) What products are formed when 3-fucosyllactose is hydrolyzed in aqueous acid?
