in a-furanose form should be identified along with the name of the sugar.

Concept introduction:

A Haworth projection is common way to represent the cyclic structure of monosaccharides.

Five and six membered hemiacetals are represented as planar pentagons or hexagons.

  α -form of the Haworth projection indicates, the exocyclic O group at the anomeric centre is on the opposite face as to the CH2OH group.

  β -form of the Haworth projection, the exocyclic O group at the anomeric centre is on the same face as to the CH2OH group.

In the Haworth projection - CH2OH group is present in the RIGHT side of the ring is called D- form.

In the Haworth projection - CH2OH group is present in the LEFT side of the ring is called L- form.

For example:

Explanation of Solution

The given structure is as follows.

  BIOCHEMISTRY BOOKS ALC&MOD MST/ET PKG, Chapter 9, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  4

Above structure has 5 carbons and on 3rd carbon –OH group is present in the left side of the carbon chain. Therefore, the name of the sugar is α-D-Xylofuranose .

Let’s draw the Haworth projection of α-D-Xylofuranose .

In the D form of Haworth projection, the exocyclic O group at the anomeric centre is on the opposite face as to the CH2OH group.
