Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Haworth formula for the β-furanose form of D-fructose is to be written.

Concept introduction:

Haworth formula is a planar representation of the cyclic forms of carbohydrates.

The Haworth formula is drawn with the ring oxygen at the back and the anomeric oxygen to the right.

The hydrogen or hydroxyl groups on C2 onward point up if they are on the left in the Fischer projection, and point down if on the right side.

The ring is completed by forming a bond between the aldehyde group and oxygen of hydroxyl group on C4 or C5 depending on the ring size.
