Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of the α- and β- glucose anomers upon its dissolution in the solvent water. This process is usually seen in the chemistry of carbohydrates.
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotating the polarized light’s plane in the direction anticlockwise. L isomers are one of the 2 isomers formed by the configurational stereochemistry of the carbohydrates.

Reagents and conditions
Mechanistic details
El mechanism for tertiary or secondary allylic or benzylic
substrates: the leaving group departs in a unimolecular rate-
limiting step, generating the carbocation, which in the second
step is deprotonated (with base) on the carbon adjacent to the
cationc center, yielding the olefin; carbocation rearrangements
may compete
variety of conditions and
solvents
usually strong bases favor
E2 mechanism
E2 mechanism favored by strong bases: the base removes a
proton from the carbon adjacent to one bearing the leaving group
in a one-step bimolecular reaction that requires periplanar
orientation of the hydrogen and the leaving group (anti-
periplanar preferred)
competition with substitution reactions (S₁1and SN2) often
observed
Usually the most substituted olefin is the major product
