Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The systematic name should be given for the geraniol.
Concept introduction:
Any organic molecule can be named by using certain rules given by IUPAC (International Union for Pure and applied chemistry). IUPAC name consists of three parts, namely Prefix, suffix and root word.
Prefix- Represents the substituent present in the molecule and its position in the root name.
Suffix- Denotes the presence of
Root word - Represents the longest continuous carbon skeleton of the organic molecule.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of citral should be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Oxidation reaction:
Alcohol undergoes oxidation reaction using oxidising agent like

- Given the structure of disaccharide below: (a) is it reducing? (b) will it react positively with Benedict's reagent and (c) what specific glycosidic linkage is the name of the disaccharide?arrow_forwardCommon names for some triacylglycerols depend on their source. Identify the source. Choices are plant oils (soybean, canola, corn, sunflower, and so on), beef fat, and pork fat. (a) Tallow (b) Cooking oil (c) Lardarrow_forward(a) Draw the condensed structural formula, and give the name and abbreviation for the dipeptide Cys-Pro. (b) For the sugar with the structure shown below: (i) draw an arrow pointing to the anomeric carbon (ii) Is this the alpha or Beta anomer? ОН H OH OH OH OHarrow_forward
- In observing a Haworth or cyclohexane-chair representation of alpha-d-glucopyranose, the anomeric carbon can de best identified by: a) the carbon atom which is bonded to the most H atoms b) the carbon atom which is bonded to the least H atoms c) The carbon atom which has its OH group pointing down d) The carbon atom which is bonded to two oxygen atoms Cellulose differs from amylose in that: a) cellulose has 1-6 branches while amylose does not b) amylose has 1-6 branches while cellulose does not c) amylose has alpha glycosidic bonds while cellulose has beta glycosidic bonds d) cellulose contains sulfate while amylose does not. The glycosaminoglycan (mucopolysaccharide) which is not normally associated with joint tissue is: a) heparin b) keratan sulfate c) chondroitin sulfate d) hyaluronic acid In glycoproteins, which amino acid does not bond sugar molecules? a) Asn b) Ser c) Thr d) Gly Which feature do all lipid molecules share in common? a) fatty acid molecules…arrow_forwardExamine the structures of the following molecules. In each compound circle and identify by name each functional group. a) ethanolamine b) Glucosamine c) Threonine H₂N-C-C-OH H₂ H₂ H₂N HO OH d) Phosphoenolpyruvate с H₂N-CH OH OH OH HC - OH 1 CH3 OH T O=P-O O H₂C=C-C OHarrow_forwardIndicate the FALSE alternative: a) The formation of osazones is a characteristic reaction of aldoses and ketoses. b) Disaccharides formed by aldoses with 1-1' linkages do not have reducing power or mutarotation. c) Glycosides have no reducing power. d) Glycosidic bonds allow the formation of branched structures. e) A characteristic of alditols is that they all have optical activity.arrow_forward
- Acetone, CH3–(C=0) –CH3, and urea, NH2–(C=0)–NH2, have similar chemical structures. (a) Compare the possible intermolecular forces for acetone with those for urea. (b) Compare the intermolecular forces between phycocyanin and acetone with those between phycocyanin and water. Briefly explain how acetone disrupts the folding in phycocyanin. (c) Compare the intermolecular forces between phycocyanin and urea with those between phycocyanin and water. Briefly explain how urea disrupts the folding in phycocyanin. (d) Compare your experimental observation on the disruption of phycocyanin folding in the presence of acetone with that in the presence of urea. Briefly explain whether your comparison is consistent with the properties of acetone and urea.arrow_forwardWhen pentane is exposed to Br2 in the presence of light, a halogenation reaction occurs. Write the formulas of:(a) All possible products containing only one bromine(b) All possible products containing two bromines that are not on the same carbonarrow_forwardSorbitol is a sweetener often substituted for cane sugar, because it is better tolerated by diabetics. It is also an intermediate in the commercial synthesis of vitamin C. Sorbitol is prepared by high-pressure hydrogenation of glucose over a nickel catalyst. What is the structure (including stereochemistry) of sorbitol?arrow_forward
