Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The given chair forms should be converted into an open-chain form and to Fischer projections. Also, name the monosaccharide so formed.
Concept Introduction:
A chair form is most stable conformation of cyclic hydrocarbon.Here, hydrogens are at axial positions and hydroxyl groups are at equilitorial positions.
The Fischer projection is two dimensional representation of the three-dimensional projection. It is used to differentiate between D and L molecules. In the D configuration, the carbon next to the last has hydrogen on the left and hydroxyl group on the right whereas in L configuration, the hydrogen is on the right a hydroxyl group on the left.
All the horizontal bonds in the Fischer projection are directed towards the viewer and vertical bonds are directed away from the viewer.
