Question

hown below: Google Search and learning resour [Review Topics] A Fischer projection of a monosaccharide is shown below: CHO H- OH OH CH2OH a. Classify this monosaccharide (e.g., aldotriose) b. Does it have the D or L configuration? c. Which carbon and oxygen become bonded in the furanose ring form of this monosaccharide the oxygen carbon "not formed")? d. Which carbon and oxygen become bonded in the pyranose ring form of this monosaccharide Retry Entire Group 4 more group attempts remaining Submit Answer

Explanation / Answer

Ans 1 .

A) The monosaccharide is an aldotetrose because it has an aldehyde group and 4 carbons in its molecule.

B) it has D configuration because OH group of 3rd carbon is at the right .

C) The 4rth carbon and oxygen on carbon 1 will bond in the five membered furanose ring.

D) pyranose ring form is not formed because it is six membered whereas the molecule has only 4 carbons.
