Chapter 20, Problem 69P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether Daltrose exists preferentially as a pyranose or furanose has to be predicted.

Concept Introduction:

Carbohydrates are made from carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms and the wide numbers of isomers exist for the carbohydrates because of the presence of chiral Carbon atoms.

Pyranose are the compounds that comprise six-membered ring made of one Oxygen and five Carbon atoms, whereas furanose is the carbohydrates that comprise five-membered ring made of one Oxygen and four carbon atoms.

Draw the structures (using chair conformations of pyranoses) of the following disaccharides.(a) 4-O-(a-d-glucopyranosyl)-d-galactopyranose(
Predict whether d-altrose exists preferentially as a pyranose or a furanose. (Hint: In the most stable arrangement for a five-membered ring, all theadjacent substituents are trans.)
Trehalose and maltose are both dimers of glucose. However, they have considereably different reactivities. Concisely explain why these differences are observed. но но HO HO но "HO он но он OH O HO OHOH но trehalose maltose 1. Malthose is a reducing sugar while trehalose is not. 2. Trehalose is very resistant to acid hydrolysis while maltose can be acid-hydrolyzed with ease.
