Chapter 7, Problem 3P
Summary Introduction

To explain: The reason that why does glucose and mannose, and similarly galactose and talose, form osazone derivatives with the same melting points.

Introduction:

Osazone is a derivation of carbohydrate studied in organic chemistry. This osazone formed when carbohydrate or sugar groups react with excess amount of phenylhydrazine. This osazone is developed by German chemist name Emil Fischer to identify the epimers of carbohydrate.

Given:

Tabular representation: Table 1 represents the melting points of some aldose-osazone derivatives.

Monosaccharide Melting point of anhydrous monosaccharide (°C) Melting point of osazone derivative (°C)
Glucose 146 205
Mannose 132 205
Galactose 165-168 201
Talose 128-130 201

Table 1: Melting points of aldose-osazone derivatives.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
