Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of th…
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotat…

Chapter 19, Problem 8P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The meaning of the designations D and L as used to specify the configuration of a monosaccharide should be explained.

Concept Introduction:

In a monosaccharide, if at the last stereocenter the hydroxyl group is at right in the Fischer projection, the monosaccharide is known to have D configuration. Opposite to it if the hydroxyl group is at left, the monosaccharide will have L configuration.
