Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The preferred form of α- or β-pyranose at equilibrium in aqueous solution for the given compounds are to be provided.

Concept Introduction:

The name of the cyclic form depends upon the position of the substituents present at anomeric centre. Both the cyclic forms are stable.

The anomers are cyclic monosaccharides which are differ in configuration at C1 in aldoses and at C2 in ketoses. These carbon atoms are called anomeric centre. The anomeric centre is labeled by α or β.

Compound A is a D-aldopentose that can be oxidized to an optically inactive aldaric acid B. On Kiliani-Fischer chain extension, A is converted into C and D; C can be oxidized to an optically active aldaric acid E, but D is oxidized to an optically inactive aldaric acid F. What is the structure of compound F? • Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. If a group is achiral, do not use wedged or hashed bonds on it. • Show stereochemistry in a meso compound. • Do not include lone pairs in your answer. They will not be considered in the grading.
