Chapter 22, Problem 8Q
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The saccharides obtained by the hydrolysis of (+)-sucrose are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Carbohydrates containing single units of sugar molecule are called monosaccharides while those containing two units of sugar are called disaccharides.

Hydrolysis is the process in which a larger compound breaks into smaller compounds in the presence of water.

Compound A is a D-aldopentose that can be oxidized to an optically inactive aldaric acid B. On Kiliani-Fischer chain extension, A is converted into C and D; C can be oxidized to an optically active aldaric acid E, but D is oxidized to an optically inactive aldaric acid F. What is the structure of compound F? • Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. If a group is achiral, do not use wedged or hashed bonds on it. • Show stereochemistry in a meso compound. • Do not include lone pairs in your answer. They will not be considered in the grading.
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
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 MeDgives 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 MeO MeO OH OMe Am OH OMe OMe
