Question
Chapter 24.6, Problem 6P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The Howarth formulas corresponding to the the given carbohydrates are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
A carbon atom that has four non-equivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as the chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centres are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centres.
A Fisher projection of a sugar is said to be D-sugar and L-sugar configuration, if the
The Howarth formula of sugars is represented by the ring containing oxygen atom and the anomeric carbon atom at its right side.
