Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
The systematic name of the given compound and the configuration (R or S) of each asymmetric center is to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
Carbohydrates are the polyhydroxy
The isomer present in the clockwise direction when the highest priority group is place next to the highest priority substituent has the R configuration
The isomer present in the anticlockwise direction when the highest priority group is place next to the highest priority substituent has the S configuration
b)
Interpretation:
The systematic name of the given compound and the configuration ( R or S) of each asymmetric center is to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
Carbohydrates are the polyhydroxy ketones or polyhydroxy aldehydes and they are represented by Fischer projections. Polyhydroxy aldehydes are known as aldoses and polyhydroxy ketones are known as ketoses.
