3. Given the chemical information below, determine the structure of the saccharide i. It is a non-reducing sugar, a...
will rate, thanks When a certain trisaccharide is completely methylated (i.e. all of the free OH groups have been converted to OCH3 groups) and then hydrolyzed (i.e. all of the glycosidic linkages have been broken) equal molar amounts of 2, 3, 4, 6-tetra-O-methyl-D-galactose, 2, 3, 4-tri-O-methyl-D-mannose, and 1, 2, 4, 6-tetra-O- methyl-D-glucose are obtained. When this same trisaccaride is treated with B-galactosidase (an enzyme that hydrolyzes the indicated glycosidic bond indicated by its name) it yields D-galactose and a disaccharide....
15 points) You are given a carbohydrate to analyze. It behaves as a reducing sugar with a Tollen's test. When you exhaustively methylate it with alkaline CH3l and then hydrolyze with strong acid, you get the following in an equal molar ratio (1:1); 2,3,4,6-tetra-o-methylgalactose 2,3,6-tri-O-methylglucose You try reacting it with different glycosidases, and get the following results: a-galactosidase: No reaction B-galactosidase: produces galactose and glucose (1:1) as products a-glucosidase: No reaction B-glucosidase: No reaction . (2 point) Based upon these...
A derivative of sucrose that is found in sugar beets and higher plants was analyzed and found to have the properties listed in the following. (a) Mol. Formula: C18H22O16 MW = 504.4 Assuming the compound is made up of C6 sugars, how many sugars to you expect to find in the molecule? (b) The compound was subjected to acid hydrolysis and gas chromatographic (GC) analysis of its sugar components by means of their per-O-trimethylsilyl ether derivatives. The sugar components...
Name the following aldoses. (Include in the names the stereochemical designation D or L and, where appropriate, the configuration of the anomeric carbon, alpha or beta. This question is case-sensitive, so capitalize only the D or L.) ball & stick labels ball & stick labels The following model is that of an aldopentose: ball & stick - + labels Draw the alpha anomer of the sugar in its furanose form. • Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where...
