(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of D-erythrose has to be identified from the given structures.
Concept introduction:
The configuration of stereoisomer is determined by Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system rules.
According to Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system,
The group attached to asymmetric center should be ranked based on the
For Fischer projection formula: Check the direction of arrow drawn in the direction of decreasing priority. If the arrow points clockwise direction, then the compound has R configuration. If the arrow points counterclockwise direction, then the compound has S configuration. If the group with lowest priority is bonded in horizontal line, then the configuration is assigned as just reverse.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of D-threose has to be identified from the given structures.
Concept introduction:
The configuration of stereoisomer is determined by Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system rules.
According to Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system,
The group attached to asymmetric center should be ranked based on the atomic number of atom which directly connected to asymmetric center. The higher the atomic number of atom, higher the priority. If there is tie, then consider the next atoms attached to the connected atom and so on.
For Fischer projection formula: Check the direction of arrow drawn in the direction of decreasing priority. If the arrow points clockwise direction, then the compound has R configuration. If the arrow points counterclockwise direction, then the compound has S configuration. If the group with lowest priority is bonded in horizontal line, then the configuration is assigned as just reverse.

- 9 A disaccharide consists of the molecules of D-glucose and D-glucosamine joined by a (1a, 1b)-glucosidic bond. a) Draw the structure of the disaccharide (Haworth projection) if you know that in D- glucose the anomeric carbon has an a-configuration. b) Give the name of the union you drew in question a. c) Draw the structure of the product (cantilever conformation) resulting from the effect of excess acetic anhydride and pyridine on the disaccharide. Hint: D-glucosamine has the same structure as D-glucose, but C-2 has an amino group instead of a hydroxyl.arrow_forwardm) Which pyranose ring (A, B, C, or D) in the tetrasaccharide below is derived from D-altrose?
