Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of the α-pyranose form of Ddigitoxose is to be represented.

Concept introduction:

Hydrogenolysis is a chemical reaction in which a carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom single bond is cleaved by hydrogen. The heteroatom may be oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen.

Hydrogenolysis is conducted catalytically using hydrogen gas.

Hydrogenolysis reaction is the one in which catalytic hydrogenation cleaves the C6H5CH2O bond of benzyl ethers.
