- Ruff degradation of d-arabinose gives d-erythrose. The Kiliani–Fischer synthesis converts d-erythrose to a mixture of d-arabinose and d-ribose. Draw out these reactions, andgive the structure of d-ribosearrow_forwardGive a clear handwritten answer with explanation....give the all stereoisomers with explanation given bleow structurearrow_forwardto make this compound, why 'chiral pool' method of asymmetric synthesis can be used?arrow_forward
- how are fused heterocycles numbered? i have three examples and please explain how and what rule they follow. additionally what changes if anything if i add a carboxylic acid. please write the full names as well as an explanation of how it was achievedarrow_forwardDraw the arrow pushing mechanism for the reaction of camphor to isoborneol. For each step on the mechanism give one DETAILED sentence on what is occurring and why. Examples: "Loss of water to form a tertiary carbocation", "nucleophilic attack of ____ to increase acidity of ____", "methyl shift of ____ to form ____", etc. Thank you!arrow_forwardName the following aldose. (Include in the names the stereochemical designation D or L and, where appropriate, the configuration of the anomeric carbon, alpha or beta. This question is case-sensitive, so capitalize only the D or L.)arrow_forward
- Illustrate the treatment of methyl α-D-glucopyranoside with aqueous acid forms a mixture of α- and β-D-glucose and methanol ?arrow_forwardAldohexoses A and B both undergo Ruff degradation to give aldopentose C. On treatment with warm nitric acid, aldopentose C gives an optically active aldaric acid. B alsoreacts with warm nitric acid to give an optically active aldaric acid, but A reacts to givean optically inactive aldaric acid. Aldopentose C is degraded to aldotetrose D, whichgives optically active tartaric acid when it is treated with nitric acid. Aldotetrose D isdegraded to (+)@glyceraldehyde. Deduce the structures of sugars A, B, C, and D, and useFigure 23-3 to determine the correct names of these sugars.arrow_forwardJustify why do electrophilic substitution reaction in naphthalene take place at Alpha position. and write the short note of Asymmetric?arrow_forward
- An aldose A, is reduced by sodium borohydride to an optically inactive alditol B. The Ruff degredation of A forms C. Oxidation of C by nitric acid generates the optically inactive diacid D. The ruff degreation of C forms D-glyceraldehyde. draw the structures for compounds A through D and discuss a mechanism for the reduction step using sodium borohydridearrow_forward(a) Which of the d-aldopentoses will give optically active aldaric acids on oxidation with HNO3 ?(b) Which of the d-aldotetroses will give optically active aldaric acids on oxidation with HNO3 ?(c) Sugar X is known to be a d-aldohexose. On oxidation with HNO3, X gives an optically inactive aldaric acid. WhenX is degraded to an aldopentose, oxidation of the aldopentose gives an optically active aldaric acid. Determine thestructure of X.(d) Even though sugar X gives an optically inactive aldaric acid, the pentose formed by degradation gives an opticallyactive aldaric acid. Does this finding contradict the principle that optically inactive reagents cannot form opticallyactive products?(e) Show what product results if the aldopentose formed from degradation of X is further degraded to an aldotetrose.Does HNO3 oxidize this aldotetrose to an optically active aldaric acid?arrow_forwardAn unknown β-d-aldohexose has only one axial substituent. A Wohl degradation forms a compound which, when treated with sodium borohydride, forms an optically active alditol. This information allows you to arrive at two possible structures for the β-d-aldohexose. What experiment can you carry out to distinguish between the two possibilities?arrow_forward
