Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The steps of the sequence of Weerman degradation by using the glucose as the aldose are to be stated. The compound A and compound B are to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Weerman degradation is used to convert an aldose to another aldose with one less carbon atom. In this reaction, an amide of a carbohydrate is degraded in the presence sodium hypochlorite to form aldose with one carbon atom lesser.

A. Arrange the following radicals in order of decreasing rate of bromination. Justify your answer. B. Trehalose and isomaltose are both dimers of glucose. However, they have considerablydifferent reactivities. Concisely explain why these differences are observed. -Isomaltose is a reducing sugar while trehalose is not.-Trehalose is very resistant to acid hydrolysis while isomaltose can be acid-hydrolyzed withease.
