Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The Fischer projections for the oxidation and reduction of following sugars should be determined at
Concept Introduction: A convention used to represent a 3-D stereo formula in 2-D representation is said to be Fischer projections. In this projection, the vertical lines represent bonds below the plane of the paper and horizontal lines represents bonds above the plane of the paper.
(b)
Interpretation: The Fischer projections for the oxidation and reduction of following sugars should be determined at aldehyde carbon:
