Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: A number to the anomeric carbon atom of the given
Concept introduction: A compound that possesses a carbon atom which is attached with a hydroxyl group as well as with an alkoxy group is known as hemiacetal compound. This carbon atom that is attached with both hydroxyl group and alkoxy group is known as hemiacetal carbon.
Carbon atom which behaves as a stereocenter in the cyclic form of the hemiacetal compound is known as anomeric carbon.
Haworth projection is a method that is used to provide the three-dimensional cyclic form of a monosaccharide.
