- D-glucose exists as two epimeric cyclic hemiacetals: a-D-glucopyranose (left, labeled hydroxy group is in the axial position) and B-D-glucopyranose (right, the labeled hydroxy group is in equatorial position). The two anomers equilibrate via the open aldehyde form. Draw the curved arrows to show the complete reaction mechanism for the conversion of one anomer to the other under acidic catalysis. HOH HOH Ho HO HO HO HO- H H HO- OH!-- H H OH H OHI Harrow_forwardWhat product is formed when the following molecule is treated with H2 and a Pd catalyst? -CH₂CH₂CH₂ CH3arrow_forwardTreatment of an aldose with an oxidizing agent such as Tollens’ reagent (Section 15.5) yields a carboxylic acid. Gluconic acid, the product of glucose oxidation, is used as its magnesium salt for the treatment of magnesiumdeficiency. Draw the structure of gluconic acid.arrow_forward
- Which common intermediate is formed during acetal formation and acetal hydrolysis?arrow_forwardfill in with reagent/productsarrow_forwardA D-aldopentose A is reduced to an optically active alditol. Upon Kiliani–Fischer synthesis, A is converted to two D-aldohexoses, B and C. B is oxidized to an optically inactive aldaric acid. C is oxidized to an optically active aldaric acid. What are the structures of A–C?arrow_forward
