Trehalose, C12H22O11, is a nonreducing sugar that is only 45% as sweet as sugar. When hydrolyzed by aqueous acid or the enzyme maltase, it formsonly d-glucose. When it is treated with excess methyl iodide in the presence of Ag2O and then hydrolyzed with water under acidic conditions, only2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methyl-d-glucose is formed. Draw the structure of trehalose.
Treatment of either anomer of fructose with excess ethanol in the presence of a trace ofHCl gives a mixture of the a and b anomers of ethyl-d-fructofuranoside. Draw the startingmaterials, reagents, and products for this reaction. Circle the aglycone in each product
Hyaluronic acid, a component of connective tissue, is the fluid that lubricates joints. It is a polymer of alternating N-acetyl-d-glucosamine and d-glucuronic acid subunits joined by β-1,3'-glycosidic linkages. Draw a short segment of hyaluronic acid.
