Question

Lab scientists have synthesized two new forms of maltose: one with an alpha (1, 1) glycosidic bond and the other one with an a (1, 2) glycosidic bond, instead of the normal alpha (1, 4) linkage. The following statements are about the new forms of maltose. The new form of maltose with an alpha (1, 1) glycosidic bond is a reducing sugar. The new form of maltose with an alpha (1, 2) glycosidic bond is a reducing sugar. The new form of maltose with an alpha (1, 1) glycosidic bond has an anomeric carbon. The new form of maltose with an alpha (1, 2) glycosidic bond has an anomeric carbon. Which of the following statements is/are correct? A, B, C and D. Only B, C and D Only B and D Only C

Explanation / Answer

14. answer (a) All option A, B, C, and D are correct because maltose is a reducing sugar and has anomeric carbon and its property is not linked with the kind of linkage maltose is having.
