Chapter 20, Problem 20.46P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The hemiacetal carbon of the given monosaccharide should be identified.

Concept introduction:

When an alcohol and ether group is attached to the same carbon, it is called the hemiacetal carbon.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

By identifying the unique features in the anomeric carbon, α or β nature should be decided.

Concept introduction:

Two anomers can be constructed as alpha (α) ** beta (β), depending on the configuration difference in the anomeric Carbon.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

By applying necessary amendments to the anomeric carbon of the given structure, β anomer should be derived.

Concept introduction:

In a cyclic simple sugar 2 anomers exists depending on the bond arrangement on anomeric carbon.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

A stereoisomer should be derived by making necessary changes to the C3position of the given monosaccharide.

Concept introduction:

When a carbon atom has 4 different entities bound to it, it is called as a stereocenter.
