Chapter 23.9, Problem 23.28P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The product formed during the reaction of $\text{α}-\text{D}-\text{glucopyranose}$ sugar react with excess acetic anhydride and pyridine.

Interpretation: The product formed during the reaction of $\text{α}-\text{D}-\text{glucopyranose}$ sugar reacts with excess acetic anhydride and pyridine is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: The sugars are carbohydrates that include monosaccharides and disaccharides. The sugars include glucose, sucrose, fructose, maltose, and many more sugars. The sugars are interconvertible and get converted into glucose. The glucose enters glycolysis and generates cellular energy in terms of $\text{ATP}$ (Adenosine triphosphate).

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The product formed during the reaction of $\text{β}-\text{D}-\text{ribofuranose}$ sugar react with excess acetic anhydride and pyridine.

Interpretation: The product formed during the reaction of $\text{β}-\text{D}-\text{ribofuranose}$ sugar reacts with excess acetic anhydride and pyridine is to be predicted.
