CHAPTER 16 CARBOHYDRATES Flashcards
(29 cards)
compound that is formed by the reaction of an aldehyde with an alcohol.
hemiacetal C-1 C-5
compound that is formed by the reaction of a ketone with an alcohol.
hemiketal C2- C5
diastereomers that differ from each other in the configuration at only one chiral carbon, s
epimers
Does not contain a chiral carbon atom.
● Does not exist in non superimposable
mirror-image forms
Dihydroxyacetone
Simplest carbohydrate that contains a
chiral carbon.
● Exists in two isomeric forms that are
mirror images of each other
Glyceraldehyde
cyclic sugar with a five-membered ring. ■ Rings are very nearly planar
furanose
cyclic form of a sugar containing a six-membered ring.
■ Rings exist in solution in the chair conformation.
pyranose
mnemonics for hayworth
alpha-trans
beta- cis
Polyhydroxy alcohols that result when the carbonyl group of a sugar is redacted to a hydroxyl group.
Alditols
How will u know if it will positive in a tollens reagentr
positive= silver, may available na carbonyl group
negative= clear, wala available na anomeric shit
Formed by transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to give the phosphorylated sugar and ADP.
Phosphate esters
compound formed when a hemiacetal carbon reacts with an alcohol to give a full acetal.
glycoside
Sugars with a substituted amino group (–NH2) as part of its structure.
amino sugars
Proteins, peptide bond; carbohydrates, ____
glycosidic bond
Notation for the Linkage Specifies sa carbohydrates
ung anomeric form is involved parehas, ung diretion niya is based from the alpha and beta again.
make sure to check na ung anomeric form ung nagbbond
Sugars can undergo ____ reactions and form esters
oxidation
How will you know uif the end has a reducing sugfar?
Dapat may free na OH or Carbonyl bond= reducing sugar
if ung anomeric bond= nonreducing end
SOME IMPORTANT OLIGOSACCHARIDES
Sucrose, Lactose, Maltose
Made up of β-D-galactose and D-glucose
LACTOSE
Consists of two residues of G-glucose joined by an α(1 → 4) linkage.
MALTOSE
Branched-chain polymer of α-D-glucose.
● Consists of a chain α(1 → 4) linkages with α(1 → 6)
linkages at the branch poin
GLYCOGEN
Linear homopolysaccharide of β-D-glucose.
CELLULOSE
Contain carbohydrate residues that are covalently linked to the polypeptide chain.
GLYCOPROTEINS
It is a major nonpolysaccharide component in plant cell walls.
● Polymer of coniferyl alcohol
Lignin
