Oxidation of glucose using Benedict's or Barfoed's reagent results in a mixture of compounds including a glycolic acid (2 carbons) and erythronic acid (4 carbons). Identify the carbon-carbon bond that is broken in glucose (shown below) to yield these two acids (following further oxidation) and draw "electron pushing arrows" to indicate the electron source and electron sink involved in breaking this bond OH OH HO `H OH OH
