Comprehension Based

Paragraph-I

There are three aldohexoses, A, B and C. Compounds A and B yield the same optically active alditol when they are reduced with hydrogen and catalyst; A and B yield different phenylosazones when treated with phenyl hydrazine; B and C gives the same phenylosazone but different alditols. A, B and C, all are D sugars.

Question. The aldohexose ‘A’ is –?

Answer : A

Question. The aldohexose ‘B’ is –?

Answer : B

Question. The aldohexose ‘C’ is –?

Answer : D

Paragraph – II

An ordinary D(+) glucose has melting point 146ºC and specific rotation, [α]²⁵_D = +112°. One another form of D(+) glucose has melting point 150ºC and specific rotation [α]²⁵_D] = +18.7°. The two forms have significantly different optical rotations but when on aqueous solution of either form is allowed to stand, its rotation changes. The specific rotation of one form decreases and rotation of other increases. This change in rotation towards an equilibrium value is called mutarotation.

Question. Mutarotation is a characteristic feature of:
a. epimers
b. enantiomers
c. anomers
d. ring-chain isomers
Answer : C
