Question
Chapter 22, Problem 13PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The structure of L-(+)-threose and L-(+)-erythrose is to be represented and the aldotriose, which must be used for the preparation of the above-mentioned compounds in the Kiliani-Fischer synthesis, is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
▸ The Kiliani-Fischer reaction is used for increasing the number of carbon atoms of an aldose molecule, as a result of the formation of the epimeric aldonic acid.
▸ It is an effective and economic process for the synthesis of monosaccharides by the process of hydrolysis of a cyanohydrin.
▸ Furthermore, it can also be used for the production of epimers of higher aldoses from a lower aldose, that is, a single aldose produces a mixture of two diastereomeric sugars called epimers.

Identify monomeric and multimeric (di-,tri-meric, for example) saccharides
from this group. If you come across multimeric polypeptides, state the mono-
mers that form these multimers. State the nature of the bond that links two
units together in each case.
(a) Maltose
(b) Trehalose
(c) Lactose
(d) Sucrose
(e) Cellobiose
(f) Agarose
An optically active D-aldopentose (A) produced an optically inactive alditol (B) upon treatment with H2/Pt. When the aldopentose (A) was subjected to a Ruff degradation, D-aldotetrose (C) was generated. The aldotetrose (C) gave an optically active aldaric acid (D) upon oxidation with HNO3. D-aldopentose (A) can be prepared from D-threose by a Killani Fischer synthesis. Propose structure of A through D.
The following observations are obtained after a D-hexose was made to react with several reagents:
(1) The reactions of a D-hexose with (a) to (d) below yields an aldaric acid
(a) NH₂OH,
(b) (CH3CO)₂O, NaOCOCH 3, and,
(c) NaOCH3, and then,
(d) HNO3, H₂O
(2) HNO3 oxidation of the same D-hexose gives an aldaric acid.
Predict the structures of the three (3) possible hexoses that can undergo the above reactions?
