- Mild hydrolysis of a glycolipid produces an L-glucose molecule and the salt of tetra-decanoate fatty acid. Draw the structure of the glycolipid.arrow_forwardAn unknown trisaccharide was treated with dimethyl sulfate which adds a methyl group to every free OH group. It was then subjected to acid hydrolysis (to break glycoside bonds). The products were 23, 4, 6-tetra-O-methylgalactosc, 23,4-ui-O methyl glucose, and 2,3.6-tri-O methylglucose. Treatment of the intact trisaccharide with 0(1 6)-gaiactosidase yielded galactose and a saccharide. Treatment of this disaccharide with a(l 4)-glucosidase yielded D glucose. Draw the structure of this trisaccharide and give its systematic name.arrow_forwardThe monosaccharide shown below is the CH₂OH OH OH beta- L- D- alpha- Он OH anomer.arrow_forward
