1. Examine the Fischer projection below. How is this carbohydrate classified? A) L enantiomer; aldopentose. B) L enantiomer; ketopentose. C) D enantiomer; aldohexose. D) D enantiomer; ketopentose. 2. Which is the proper Haworth projection of β-D-galactopyranose?
Which statement is not true about this structure? • It is a ketose • It is a beta anomer. • It is a furanose. • It is a pentose. • 4. What is the name of the disaccharide shown below that is formed by joining two monomers of D-glucose? • A) β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-glucopyranose. • B) α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-α-D-glucopyranose. • C) β-D-glucofuranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-glucofuranose. • D) α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)-β-D-glucopyranose.
Objectives • Recognize particular carbohydrate structures • Know general structural elements of cyclic monosaccharides and disaccharides, and their implications for structure/function • Predict the products of condensation reactions and hydrolysis
Straight-chain Monosaccarides • Aldose/ketose terminology • Triose, tetrose, pentose, hexose • Recognize isomerization (TPI—see page 173) • Should I know the mechanism?
Stereochemistry • D/L designation • Fisher Projections
Structures to Know • D-glucose • D-glyceraldehyde • D-Ribose • D-Galactose • D-fructose • dihydroxyacetone
Cyclic Monosaccharides • Pyranose • Haworth Projection • Anomeric carbon • Alpha and beta anomers
Cyclic Monosaccharides • Furanose • Just focus on what is commonly observed • Pyranoses: glucose, galactose • Furanoses: ribose, fructose X
Conformations • Haworth and chair (no envelopes, etc)
Mutarotase • Reaction of cyclic carbohydrates which equilibrates anomers
Structure of Disaccharides • Condensation of Monosacharides • Loss of anomeric hydroxyl group and proton of nucleophilic alcohol • Glycosidic Bond
Structure of Disaccharides • Nomenclature of linkage • Find the acetal! • Reducing sugar • Find the hemiacetal! • “Lactose” • Reducing sugar • Nonreducing sugar • Linkage (number and stereochemistry)
Cellulose • Watch structure carefully!
Answers • B • I • D • A
