Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The acetal group in the structure of amygdalin molecule should be labeled.

Concept Introduction:

Carbohydrates are biomolecules that are composed of certain monomer units, known as monosaccharides or sugar molecules. Glucose is one of the simplest monosaccharides which is a polyhydroxy carbonyl compound with molecular formula C6H12O6. It can exist in the cyclic and open-chain structure. The cyclic structure of the glucose, the molecule can be further classified as a and β-forms on the basis of the presence of −OH group at anomeric C atom of the molecule.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The chiral center in the structure of amygdalin molecule should be determined.
