Interpretation Introduction

Concept introduction:

We redraw the pyranose cyclic structure of the given L aldohexose as follows:

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 25.SE, Problem 28VC

For the L sugar the CH2OH group is at the bottom of the ring.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Give the full biochemical name for an L-ketohexose with the following pattern of chiral centers: carbon #3 = L, carbon #4 = D.
Emil Fischer synthesized l-gulose, an unusual aldohexose that reduces to give d-glucitol.Suggest a structure for this l sugar, and show how l-gulose gives the same alditol asd-glucose. (Hint: d-Glucitol has ¬CH2OH groups at both ends. Either of these primaryalcohol groups might have come from reduction of an aldehyde.)
(d) Use the diagram below to complete the cyclic alpha form of structure V (e) Circle the hemiacetal in cyclic alpha form of structure V. (f) Redraw the cyclic alpha form of structure V but replace the OH group on the anomericcarbon with a methoxy group. Is this modified monosaccharide a reducing sugar or anonreducing sugar?
