Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The reactions for Ruff degradation of D-arabinose and Kiliani Fischer synthesis of D-erythrose are to be shown and the structure of D-ribose is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Ruff degradation is a method which is used to shorten sugar chain. It is a two step process which starts with a bromine-water oxidation of the aldose to its aldonic acid. Then in the second step treatment of aldonic acid with hydrogen peroxide and ferric sulfate oxidizes the carbonyl group to
The Kiliani Fischer synthesis is a method of lengthening an aldose carbon chain by adding one carbon atom to the
Ruff degradation and Kiliani Fischer synthesis are the opposite methods of each other.

- NH2 1. CH3–MgCl 2. H3O+ ? As the lead product manager at OrganometALEKS Industries, you are trying to decide if the following reaction will make a molecule with a new C - C bond as its major product: If this reaction will work, draw the major organic product or products you would expect in the drawing area below. If there's more than one major product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Be sure you use wedge and dash bonds if necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. If the major products of this reaction won't have a new C - C bond, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. This reaction will not make a product with a new C - C bond. Х ☐: Carrow_forwardPredict the major products of this organic reaction. If there will be no major products, check the box under the drawing area instead.
