Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The Fischer projections of all 2-ketopentose need to be drawn along with their descriptions as D-2-ketopentoses, L-2-ketopentoses and enantiomers.

Concept Introduction: A convention used to represent a 3-D stereoformula 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.

For a D-sugar, the -OH group attached to the bottom chiral carbon is present at the right-hand side whereas for L-sugar it is present at left-hand side.

Each of the highlighted carbon atoms is connected to hydrogen atoms.
く 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. Explanation Check O + G 1.
