Chapter 25.5, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The pyranose form of glucose is just one of the cyclic forms that glucose can adopt. It’s also possible for the hydroxyl group on C-4 of glucose to attack the aldehyde. This forms a five-membered ring. We call this form the furanose form, in reference to the cyclic 5-membered ether furan.

Determine the branch points and reducing ends of amylopectin.         A 0.5g sample of amylopectin was analyzed to determine the fraction of the total glucose residues that are branch points in the structure. The sample was methylated and then digested, yielding 50 μmol of 2,3-methylglucose and 0.4 μmol of 1,2,3,6-tetramethyl glucose. (MWglucose = 162 g/mol, minus H2O)  What fraction of the total residues are branch points?  How many reducing ends does the amylopectin have?
