Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Glycosidic linkage has to be located in cellobiose.
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 cellobiose.
(c)
Interpretation:
Glycosidic linkage has to be classified as
Concept Introduction:
Refer part (a).
