Question
Chapter 20.8, Problem 20.20P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The structural difference between N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine should be described. Whether the two compounds are constitutional, or stereoisomers should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Constitutional isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula with different connectivity of atoms. So, constitutional isomers will have different functional groups. Stereoisomers are compounds that differ in the spatial arrangement of atoms.
