Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Glycosidic linkage has to be located in given disaccharide.
Concept Introduction:
Carbohydrates that are composed of two monosaccharide units are known as disaccharides. This is formed when one hydroxyl group of one monosaccharide reacts with a hydroxyl group of another monosaccharide. The bond formed between the two monosaccharide units is
Depending on the orientation of the glycosidic linkage, the glycoside bond can be of two types. They are
(b)
Interpretation:
The carbon atoms has to be numbered in both rings of given disaccharide.
(c)
Interpretation:
Glycosidic linkage has to be classified as

- In glycoside formation, the hemiacetal functional group of a cyclic monosaccharide is converted to an acetal group by reaction with a(an)arrow_forwardAmygdalin is a toxic component in the pits of bitter almonds, peaches, and apricots. Q.) Name the two monosaccharide units in amygdalin and describe the glycosidic bond by which they are joined.arrow_forwardSuppose you have two simple sugars, D-arabinose and L-tagatose. Both sugars cyclize and form a non-reducing disaccharide with the glycosidic bond oriented in the alpha position relative to each monosaccharide's structure. Give the full biochemical name for this disaccharide.arrow_forward
- Which statement about the following disaccharide is correct?arrow_forwardName each monosaccharide unit in stachyose and specify whether it is a d-monosaccharide or an l-monosaccharide.arrow_forwardIdentify the glycosidic bond in the following disaccharide. (b) Decide whether the compound is a non-reducing or reducing sugar. (c) Polysaccharide units are usually bonded together with a or b 1, 6 or 1, 4 linkages. What linkage is used in the disaccharide shown below?arrow_forward
- 9 A disaccharide consists of the molecules of D-glucose and D-glucosamine joined by a (1a, 1b)-glucosidic bond. a) Draw the structure of the disaccharide (Haworth projection) if you know that in D- glucose the anomeric carbon has an a-configuration. b) Give the name of the union you drew in question a. c) Draw the structure of the product (cantilever conformation) resulting from the effect of excess acetic anhydride and pyridine on the disaccharide. Hint: D-glucosamine has the same structure as D-glucose, but C-2 has an amino group instead of a hydroxyl.arrow_forwardMonosaccharides are cyclic hemiacetals that can react with alcohols to form acetals. The bond between the anomeric carbon atom of the monosaccharide and the oxygen atom of the -OR group is called a glycosidic bond. The name of the linkage contains the designation alpha (a) or beta (B) (from the anomeric carbon in the glycosidic bond) and the carbon numbers for the carbons from the two sugars. For this example, the linkage is an a-1,4 glycosidic bond. Н НО HO اب تاب است H OH H OH -OH Н Н OH H + OH HO a anomer CH₂OH H Н H О OH H2C OH Н H Classify the glycosidic linkage in the disaccharide.
