Chapter 22, Problem 43P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The explanation for physical property (here, boiling point) of a compound based on its structural formula is to suggested.

Concept introduction:

Methyl 2,3anhydroDribofuranoside exists in both αand β anomeric forms. The two forms show ring conformations with methoxy and hydroxymethyl substituents involved in intra-molecular hydrogen bonding.

The NMR(nuclear magnetic resonance)-based studies on ribofuranoside conformations revealed the above information. The NMR is an analytical technique in chemistry to identify the structure of a compound. It is an important tool in structure elucidation of organic compounds.

b) Disaccharide E is a reducing sugar. It is hydrolyzed by an α-glycosidase enzyme, which means it contains an α- glycoside link. Treatment of E with Ag2O and excess Mel gives an octamethyl derivative F. Hydrolysis of F in dilute aqueous acid gives the pair of molecules shown below. Write the structures of E and F. (If the stereochemistry at a particular carbon is not determined by the above data, indicate this with a wavy line as shown below.) HO OMe OMe Is is MeO MeO MOH OMe mOH OMe OMe
Draw the structures (using chair conformations of pyranoses) of the following disaccharides.(a) 4-O-(a-d-glucopyranosyl)-d-galactopyranose(
b) Compounds A and B have the following properties: Compound A (C5H1005) is an optically active D-pentose that exists exclusively as an acyclic molecule. (Hint: that sentence alone completely determines the structure of A! But we generously give you more information.) • Compound A does not react with Br₂/H₂O. • Reduction of A with NaBH4 gives only one product, B (C5H12O5), which is optically active. Write acyclic Fischer projection structures of A and B.
