Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The two possible structures of arabinose are to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Ruff degradation is a method which is used to shorten sugar chain. It is a two step process which starts with a bromine-water oxidation of the aldose to its aldonic acid. Then in the second step, treatment of aldonic acid with hydrogen peroxide and ferric sulfate oxidizes the carbonyl group to
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of erythrose is to be shown.
