Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The preferred form of α- or β-pyranose at equilibrium in aqueous solution for the given compounds are to be provided.

Concept Introduction:

The name of the cyclic form depends upon the position of the substituents present at anomeric centre. Both the cyclic forms are stable.

The anomers are cyclic monosaccharides which are differ in configuration at C1 in aldoses and at C2 in ketoses. These carbon atoms are called anomeric centre. The anomeric centre is labeled by α or β.

Aldohexoses 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.
Pyrethrin II and pyrethrosin are two natural products isolated from plants of the chrysanthemum family. Pyrethrin II is a natural insecticide and is marketed as such. Q, Show that the bicyclic ring system of pyrethrosin is composed of three isoprene units.
