Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The acetal or hemiacetal grouping of trehalose, reducing or nonreducing property of trehalose and the link between two monosaccharides have to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Reducing sugar: Sugars that contain
Anomeric position is carried by a
Anomeric position is carried by an alkoxy group for acetal sugars.
Hemiacetal sugars are in equilibrium with their open chain form.
Acetal sugars are not in equilibrium with their open chain form.
The linkage between monosaccharides in a disaccharide is referred to as a glycosidic linkage. Two

- Gentiobiose (D-Glc(β1→6)D-Glc) is a disaccharide found in some plantglycosides. Draw the structure of gentiobiose based on its abbreviated name. Is it a reducing sugar? Does it undergo mutarotation?arrow_forwardRaffinose, the most abundant trisaccharide found in nature, occurs in whole grains and numerous vegetables (e.g., asparagus, cabbage, and beans). Hydrolysis of raffinose yields galactose and sucrose. Provide the systematic name for this trisaccharide. Is raffinose a reducing or nonreducing sugar? Is raffinose capable of mutarotation?arrow_forwardComplete the following table by providing the Fischer and Haworth Projections of the given sugars. In the Fischer Projection put an asterisk (*) mark in the chiral centers of the molecule.
