Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Compounds A, B, C and D are to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
The structural representation of sugar molecule in cyclic form is known as Haworth projection. Sugar molecule that has six-membered-ring is known as pyranose and sugar molecule that has five-membered-ring is called furanose. A sugar molecule in which hydroxyl groups of second last carbon atom is on left side is known as
The Wohl degradation is used in order to reduce the chain of an aldose by one carbon and Kiliani-Fischer synthesis is used to increase the chain length of an aldose sugar.
