a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The configuration of each of the asymmetric centers in the Fisher projection of D-glucose is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

An asymmetric carbon atom is represented as a cross in Fisher projection.  The carbon chain is kept along the vertical line.  The groups attached asymmetric carbon atoms are arranged according to their configuration in Fisher projection.  The enantiomers of a chiral compound can be named the help of right hand and left hand configuration.

In fisher projection, chiral carbon atom is represented by a cross.  When two groups on a fisher projection are interchanged, the configuration of chiral carbon also changes from (R) to (S) or (S) to (R).

b)

For each reaction below, decide if the first stable organic product that forms in solution will create a new CC bond, and check the appropriate box. Next, for each reaction to which you answered "Yes" to in the table, draw this product in the drawing area below. Note for advanced students: for this problem, don't worry if you think this product will continue to react under the current conditions - just focus on the first stable product you expect to form in solution. ? Will the first MgBr product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond? olo ? OH جمله O Yes Ⓒ No MgCl ? Will the first product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond?
