Interpretation Introduction

Concept introduction:

We redraw the pyranose cyclic structure of the given L aldohexose as follows:

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 25.SE, Problem 28VC

For the L sugar the CH2OH group is at the bottom of the ring.

Give the full biochemical name for an L-ketohexose with the following pattern of chiral centers: carbon #3 = L, carbon #4 = D.
Emil Fischer synthesized l-gulose, an unusual aldohexose that reduces to give d-glucitol.Suggest a structure for this l sugar, and show how l-gulose gives the same alditol asd-glucose. (Hint: d-Glucitol has ¬CH2OH groups at both ends. Either of these primaryalcohol groups might have come from reduction of an aldehyde.)
Trehalose, C12H22O11, is a nonreducing sugar that is only 45% as sweet as sugar. When hydrolyzed by aqueous acid or the enzyme maltase, it forms only d-glucose. When it is treated with excess methyl iodide in the presence of Ag2O and then hydrolyzed with water under acidic conditions, only 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methyl-d-glucose is formed. Draw the structure of trehalose
