Chapter 5, Problem 11PIAT
Summary Introduction
To review:
The type of glycosidic bond linking monosaccharides α-glucose and β-fructose in disaccharide, sucrose.
Introduction:
Sucrose is a disaccharide made up of monosaccharides α-d-glucose and β-d-fructose. The two monosaccharides of the sucrose are joined by an ether bond called the glycosidic bond. The bond is formed by the condensation reaction in which a molecule of water is released.
