Chapter 17, Problem 17.34E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reaction between the monosaccharide and Cu2+ ion is to be completed.

Concept introduction:

Benedict’s reagent is an alkaline solution of Cu2+ ions. It is used for the identification of simpler carbohydrates. The reducing sugars possess the ability to transfer hydrogen atoms or electrons to other compounds due to the presence of OH group connected to their anomeric carbon atom. The Benedict’s test is used to identify the reducing sugars because they are oxidized by Cu2+ solution.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The reaction between the carbohydrate containing hemiacetal group and alcohol is to be completed.

Concept introduction:

Acetal is an organic compound with general formula RHC(OR')2. The two alkoxy groups (OR') are bonded with terminal carbon atom and the R' group can be same or different.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The reaction between the carbohydrate containing hemiketal group and alcohol is to be completed.

Concept introduction:

Ketal is an organic compound with general formula R2C(OR')2. The two alkoxy groups (OR') are bonded with same carbon atom in between the chain. The R' and R groups can be same or different.

Draw the titration curve of (i) weak acid vs. strong base; (ii) weak acid vs. weakbase; (iii) diprotic acid with strong base (iii) triprotic acid with strong base.
Complete the reaction in the drawing area below by adding the major products to the right-hand side. If there won't be any products, because nothing will happen under these reaction conditions, check the box under the drawing area instead. Note: if the products contain one or more pairs of enantiomers, don't worry about drawing each enantiomer with dash and wedge bonds. Just draw one molecule to represent each pair of enantiomers, using line bonds at the chiral center. More... No reaction. my ㄖˋ + 1. Na O Me Click and drag to start drawing a structure. 2. H +
