Chapter 29.6, Problem 9P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To predict the carbon atoms of glugose into specific functionality in a methyl.

Answer:

a) The carbon atoms C-1 and C-6 of glucose become –CH3 groups.

b) The C-3 and C-4 atoms become CO2.

Explanation:

Showing a molecule of α-glucose the overall result of glycolysis can be summarized by the following equation: [The carbon atoms are numbered].

The figure shows that the carbon atoms numbered 1 and 6 and coloured green end up as the –CH3 of pyruvate. The carbon atoms C-3 and C-4 in violet end up as CO2.

Conclusion:

The conversion of the carbon atoms of glucose into specific functionalities is a methyl –CH3 and a CO2 (carbond ioxide) in pyruvate is shown in the reaction.
