A Fischer projection of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine is given in Section 12.1D.
(a) Draw a Haworth projection and a chair conformation for the ß-pyranose form of this monosaccharide.
(b) Draw a Haworth projection and a chair conformation for the disaccharide formed by joining two units of the pyranose form of N-acetyl-Dglucosamine with a ß-1,4-glycosidic bond. If you draw them correctly, you will have a structural formula for the repeating dimer of chitin, the structural polysaccharide component of the shell of lobsters and other crustaceans.
