Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given compound is a component of whether (1) a cerebroside but not a ganglioside, (2) a ganglioside but not a cerebroside or (3) both a cerebroside and ganglioside has to be predicted.
Concept introduction: The lipid that is composed of one fatty acid and one carbohydrate unit which is joined to a sphingosine molecule is known as sphingoglycolipid. The fatty acid of sphingoglycolipid is also joined to the sphingosine molecule with the help of amide linkage. The carbohydrate unit joined to a sphingosine molecule with the help of glycosidic linkage.

Now consider the two bicyclic molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more stable molecule, and why?arrow_forward
