Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the specific form of aldose is to be given.
Concept introduction:
An atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as the chiral atom. Chiral centers are also called asymmetric or stereogenic centers. The chiral atom sometimes results in the formation of enantiomers which are the non-superimposable mirror images of each other. The enantiomers have same chemical structure.
(b)
Interpretation:
The name of the specific form of aldose is to be given.
Concept introduction:
Sugars show different types of isomerism. They may be enantiomers, epimers, anomers, or diastereomers depending upon chirality and plane of symmetry in molecules. It also depends on stereochemistry of different carbons.
The epimers are compounds with same chemical structure with different configuration at different carbons.
