CAPTER 8 W: CARBYDRATES For all problems, consult the table of D-Monosaccharides provided in lecture if a structure or name is necessary. ISMERIC RELATINSIPS.

CYCLIC EMIACETALS AWRT PRJECTINS. Draw the following compounds as cyclic hemiacetals. For problem b, draw hemiacetals with two different sized rings. a. b.. Explain why the hemiacetal is favored in reaction (), but less so in reaction (). () () C the K would be <. C Reaction () has similar energetics as hydrate formation, which would be K~ for an unconjugated aldehyde. This K is a D G term, so takes into account both D and D S. Since D S is probably unfavorable ( reactants à product), the hemiacetal formation must have a favorable, or negative, D otherwise Reaction () is so similar to reaction () that it probably has a similar D (favorable). owever, a difference is that D S is probably ~zero since the reaction converts reactant à product. With D S no longer a hindrance to hemiacetal formation, the K is favorable in reaction () (Negative D leads to negative D G)..

ISMERIC RELATINSIPS 8. What s the relationship between the carbohydrates in each set? Are they identical, enantiomers, diastereomers, constitutional isomers or not related (not isomers)? C Set C Relationship Diastereomers (or anomers) Constitutional Isomers (doesn t matter they re from the same sugar) MUTARTATIN 9. Explain how the a b forms of the carbohydrate below can interconvert. Draw the structure of a key intermediate in the process. The mutarotation process goes through a flat intermediate (the carbonyl in the open form, shown above), and when the attacks the carbonyl, it can attack from the top or bottom, which leads to the a or b forms.

ACETAL FRMATIN YDRLYSIS. For the following process: S C C C a. Draw the curved arrow mechanism to show formation of one of the acetal products. S C C C C b. Use the mechanism to explain why two acetals can be formed. The mechanism goes through a flat intermediate (shown below), and the C can attack from either the top or bottom to make the two isomers. c. The only methyl ether formed is at C-. Explain why the anomeric carbon is more reactive in this mechanism than carbons -. When the anomeric alcohol becomes protonated and leaves, it forms a resonance stabilized cation (the intermediate shown in the previous problem), which is a low energy intermediate. Reaction of any of the other alcohols would form non-resonance stabilized cations.. Give the curved arrow mechanism to show formation of one of the acetal products.
