Concept Introduction:

Monosaccharide can be expressed in a cyclic form.  In case of an aldohexose, the hydroxyl group present on the C5 carbon atom reacts with the carbonyl group present in C1 carbon atom resulting in formation of a six-membered ring.  Procedure to be followed for obtaining cyclic structure are given as follows.

  • Carbon skeleton has to be rotated to 90°.  While rotating, the groups that are present on the right side ends up below after rotation.
  • Chain has to be twisted in order to put the hydroxyl group closer to the carbonyl group of aldehyde.  The CH2OH group present on C5 is drawn up.
  • The OH group on the C5 carbon atom reacts with the aldehyde carbonyl resulting in formation of six-membered ring that has a new chiral center.  Considering the orientation of OH group that is present on the new chiral center that is formed, two isomers are possible.

If the OH group in the new chiral center is drawn up means, then it is known as β isomer.  If the OH group in the new chiral center is drawn down means, then it is known as α isomer.

This cyclic form of representation of the monosacccharides as flat, six-membered rings is known as Haworth projections.

The same rule applies for five membered ring also if it is formed from aldopentose and ketohexose.

For each reaction below, decide if the first stable organic product that forms in solution will create a new CC bond, and check the appropriate box. Next, for each reaction to which you answered "Yes" to in the table, draw this product in the drawing area below. Note for advanced students: for this problem, don't worry if you think this product will continue to react under the current conditions - just focus on the first stable product you expect to form in solution. ?

Predicting As the lead product manager at OrganometALEKS Industries, you are trying to decide if the following reaction will make a molecule with a new C - C bond as its major product: H₂N O H 1. ? 2. H3O+ If this reaction will work, draw the major organic product or products you would expect in the drawing area below. If there's more than one major product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Be sure you use wedge and dash bonds if necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. 0 If the major products of this reaction won't have a new CC bond, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank. فا Explanation Check Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
