Chapter 7, Problem 4P
Summary Introduction

To determine: The bond in α-D-glucose  must be broken to change its configuration to β-D-glucose.

Introduction: Diastereomers are those stereoisomers who differ in orientation of two chiral centers due to which the isomers are not the mirror images of each other. The cyclic forms of diastereoisomeric sugars which differ at the anomeric carbon (carbonyl carbon which reacts to form hemiacetal) are known as anomers. Hemiacetal is formed when the carbonyl carbon (partially positive) and oxygen of hydroxyl group (partially negative) forms a bond. The hemiacetal anomers exist in alpha and beta forms based on the site of substituent at anomeric carbon.

Summary Introduction

Imagine an electrochemical cell based on these two half reactions with electrolyte concentrations as given below:   Oxidation: Pb(s) → Pb2+(aq, 0.10 M) + 2 e– Reduction: MnO4–(aq, 1.50 M) + 4 H+(aq, 2.0 M) + 3 e– → MnO2(s) + 2 H2O(l) Calculate Ecell (assuming temperature is standard 25 °C).
: ☐ + Draw the Fischer projection of the most common naturally-occurring form of aspartate, with the acid group at the top and the side chain at the bottom. Important: be sure your structure shows the molecule as it would exist at physiological pH. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. ✓
For a silver-silver chloride electrode, the following potentials are observed: E°cell = 0.222 V and E(saturated KCl) = 0.197 V Use this information to find the [Cl–] (technically it’s the activity of Cl– that’s relevant here, but we’ll just call it “concentration” for simplicity) in saturated KCl.
