Concept explainers

Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of th…
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotat…

Chapter 20.7, Problem 20.18P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The glycosidic linkages in chondroitin and heparin should be classified as a or β. Their location should be designated using the numbers.

Concept Introduction:

When numbering carbons in a cyclic carbohydrate, the numbering starts at acetal or hemiacetal carbon that means at the anomeric carbon, giving it the number 1. And the numbering continues clockwise. O atom in the ring is not given a number.

If the glycosidic linkage is oriented down or below the plane of the ring, then it is an a glycoside. If the glycosidic linkage is oriented up, above the plane of the ring, then it is a β-glycoside.
