The disaccharide lactulose consists of a d-galactopyranose subunit and a d-fructofuranose subunit joined by a β-1,4-glycosidic linkage. After treatmentof lactulose with 1. excess CH3I/Ag2O, 2. HCl/H2O, the d-galactopyranose subunit was found to have one nonmethylated OH group, whereas thed-fructofuranose subunit had two. Draw the structure of α-lactulose.

The disaccharide lactulose consists of a D-galactopyranose subunit and a D-fructofuranose subunit joined by a B-1,4'-glycosidic linkage. After treatment of lactulose with 1. excess CH3I/Ag20, 2. HCI/H20, the D-galactopyranose subunit was found to have one nonmethylated OH group, whereas the D-fructofuranose subunit had two. Draw the structure of a-lactulose.
Researchers analysed a glycopeptide (a peptide carrying one or several oligosaccharide groups) and determined both the sequence of the peptide and the sequence of the sugar molecule. The latter was identified as a diholoside coupled to the peptide by an osidic bond. The systematic name of this sugar is: B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-ß-D-galactopyranose. : Represent the chemical formula of this diholoside in a way that all oses are Question 1 represented according to the Haworth convention. Apart from the furane and/or pyrane cycles all atoms of this molecule must be given.
Draw the structure of a carbohydrate with four b-D-glucopyranosyl units connected by b(1®4) glycosidic linkages, with the second unit being connected via an a(1®6) glycosidic linkage by a side chain having two a-D-galactopyranosyl units connected by an a(1®4) glycosidic linkage.
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?
An unknown reducing disaccharide is found to be unaffected by invertase enzymes. Treatment with an a@galactosidasecleaves the disaccharide to give one molecule of d-fructose and one molecule of d-galactose. When the disaccharideis treated with excess iodomethane and silver oxide and then hydrolyzed in dilute acid, the products are2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methylgalactose and 1,3,4-tri-O-methylfructose. Propose a structure for this disaccharide, and give itscomplete systematic name.
An unknown carbohydrate of formula C12H22O11 reacts with Tollens reagent to form asilver mirror. An a@glycosidase has no effect on the carbohydrate, but a b@galactosidasehydrolyzes it to d-galactose and d-mannose. When the carbohydrate is methylated (usingmethyl iodide and silver oxide) and then hydrolyzed with dilute HCl, the products are2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methylgalactose and 2,3,4-tri-O-methylmannose. Propose a structure forthis unknown carbohydrate
Understanding the optical rotation that we observe in lab is not the same as the specific rotation commonly reported in the literature; a student sets out to explore this on their own. They prepare a 0.083 g/mL sucrose solution, pour it into a 1 dm long optical cell, and measure the optical rotation of this solution to be 5.5 degrees. Use Biot's law to determine the specific rotation of sucrose and then the percent difference in compare this experimentally determined value against the accepted value provided above. Biot's law states www απ [a]lc where a is the observed optical rotation in units of degrees, 1 is the length of the cell in units of decimeters (dm), c is the sample concentration in units of grams per milliliter (g/mL), and [a] is the specific rotation in units of degrees (the formal unit for specific rotation is degrees divided by dmg/mL, but scientific literature uses just degrees). Percent difference = |Experimental value-Accepted value| Accepted value × 100%

4. An iterative approach to oligosaccharide synthesis involves the use of protected glycals (sugars with C1-C2 double bond) as shown below. The product from the reaction of the first glycal with DMDO under anhydrous conditions is treated with another suitably-protected glycal to form a disaccharide glycal, and the process can be repeated to form a trisaccharide glycal, and so on... Crucial to the success of this approach is the stereoselective formation of the intermediate A in the scheme below. Draw the structure of A. DMDO CH₂Cl2 A OH ZnCl₂, THF OH
