Fisher Projection is developed by
Emil Fischer
29
2 dimensional representation of 3D molecule using vertical and horizontal line

Determine the # of stereoisomers in a monosaccharide
Van’t hoff rule
32
Provide a more exact representation of the three-dimensional conformation of sugars in nature
"boat and "chair" forms
33
Compounds with the same molecular formula but with different structures.
Isomers
34
Stereoisomer also known as
configurational isomers
35
Compounds wherein the atoms are connected in the same way, but differ in how it’s arranged in space.
Stereoisomer
36
4 different attachments one that has four different groups attached to it. cannot be superimposed on its mirror image
Chiral molecule
37
Stereoisomers that are non-superimposable images of each other Chirality is a property of it.
Enantiomer
38
Differ in some stereocenter but are not mirror image. Stereoisomers that are not enantiomers/mirror images of each other.
DIASTEREOMER
39
Diastereomers that differ ONLY in the configuration at a single chiral carbon atom
EPIMER
40
The only carbon in the molecule that is bonded to two oxygen atoms, usually carbon. The carbon on which this occurs is therefore called an anomeric carbon.
ANOMER
41
An organic chemical reaction by an aldehyde or ketone with a cyanide anion or a nitrile to form a cyanohydrin
Cyanohydrin formation
42
Cyanohydrin formation is also known as
Kiliani Fischer
43
A reaction used to increase the # of carbon of a sugar
Cyanohydrin formation
44
Removal of 1 carbon atom from molecule of an aldose
Ruff Degradation
45
Interconversion or transformation from aldose to ketose or from ketose to aldose, this process will then perform unsaturated alcohol
Lobry de Bruyn Degradation
46
The carbonyl group of Aldose will be linked to phenylhydrazine
Osazonereaction
47
means the addition of oxygen to a molecule or the removal of hydrogen from a molecule.
Oxidation reaction
48
means the addition of hydrogen to a molecule or the removal of oxygen from a molecule
