Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A four-step mechanism for the mutarotation of D-glucopyranose in aqueous base is to be written using curved arrows to track electron flow.

Concept introduction:

The hemiacetal which are the forms of carbohydrates are interconvertible in water.

The mutarotation is a slow process in aqueous solutions but can be catalyzed by either acid or base.
