Interpretation:
The Fischer projection formulas for the given compounds, using given data are to be written.
Concept Introduction:
▸ Oxidation of aldoses by nitric acid produces optically inactive aldaric acids. This is due to the formation of meso compounds. Compounds that do not form meso structures are optically active.
▸ The Fischer projection is a way of representing
▸ The Ruff degradation reaction is used for decreasing the number of carbon atoms of the respective aldoses, thereby, shortening the carbon chain of the compound. It works in two steps: 1) Using bromine water to oxidize an aldose to the respective aldonic acid and, 2) using
