Concept explainers
a.
Interpretation:
Monosaccharides that are stereoisomers has to be identified from monosaccharides D, E, and F.
Concept Introduction:
Stereoisomers of a compounds are the ones that have the same structural formula but different configuration at the chiral center. They rotate the plane polarized light.
b.
Interpretation:
Monosaccharides that are consititutional isomers has to be identified from monosaccharides D, E, and F.
c.
Interpretation:
Enantiomer of structure F has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Enantiomers are two stereoisomers of a compound that rotate the plane polarized light exactly opposite. The configuration present in the enantiomers will be exactly opposite to each other.
d.
Interpretation:
Fischer projection for structure D has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Fischer projection formula simply uses cross for representing tetrahedral carbon atom. The carbon atom that is present in the intersection point in cross. The horizontal bonds means they are coming forward and they are present on wedge bond. The vertical bonds means they are pointing away and they are present on dashed lines.
