Chapter 20, Problem 30P
Interpretation Introduction

(1)

Interpretation:

The chiral centers need to be labeled in the given molecules.

Concept introduction:

Chiral carbon is an asymmetric carbon which contains four different types of groups or atoms. Monosaccharides have one or more chiral centers except dihydroxyacetone.

Interpretation Introduction

(2)

Interpretation:

The given molecules need to be classified as D or L monosaccharides.

Concept introduction:

Sugar molecules can name as D or L sugars according to their most oxidized carbon at the top of the Fisher projection.

Interpretation Introduction

(3)

Interpretation:

The enantiomers of the given monosaccharide need to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Carbon group with four different groups attached are chiral. Those compounds and their mirror image are non −superimposable and these are called as enantiomers or optical isomers.

Interpretation Introduction

(4)

Interpretation:

The Fisher projection of the given monosaccharide needs to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Fisher projection is a two dimensional representation of a three dimensional molecule.
