Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The name of the aldose is to be stated. The Fischer projection of the aldose is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Aldose is a carbohydrate which contains an aldehyde group. Furanose is the cyclic form of the aldose which consists of a five-membered ring made up of four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. The furanose ring is substituted with hydroxy groups, hydrogen atoms, and a CH2OH group. Fischer projections is a two dimensional representation of organic compounds. It was proposed to represent glucose molecules.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The name of the aldose is to be stated. The carbons which have same and different configuration from glucose are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Aldose is a carbohydrate which contains an aldehyde group. Pyranose is the cyclic form of the aldose which consists of a six-membered ring made up of four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. The pyranose ring is substituted with hydroxy groups, hydrogen atoms, and a CH2OH group.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The name of the aldose is to be stated. The Fischer projection of the aldose is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Aldose is a carbohydrate which contains an aldehyde group. Furanose is the cyclic form of the aldose which consists of a five-membered ring made up of four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. The furanose ring is substituted with hydroxy groups, hydrogen atoms, and a CH2OH group. The carbon atom adjacent to the oxygen atom which is substituted by the hydroxyl group is known as anomeric carbon.

In Fehling's reaction aldehyde group of carbohydrate is: a)Product b)Ensuring environment c)Reducer Give a clear handwritten answer and explain...?
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.
