  2. Haworth projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haworth_projection

    In chemistry, a Haworth projection is a common way of writing a structural formula to represent the cyclic structure of monosaccharides with a simple three-dimensional perspective. Haworth projection approximate the shapes of the actual molecules better for furanoses —which are in reality nearly planar—than for pyranoses that exist in ...

  3. L-Glucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-Glucose

    l-Glucose is an organic compound with formula C 6 H 12 O 6 or O=CH[CH(OH)] 5 H, specifically one of the aldohexose monosaccharides. As the l-isomer of glucose, it is the enantiomer of the more common d-glucose. l-Glucose does not occur naturally in living organisms, but can be synthesized in the laboratory.

  4. Anomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomer

    2, 3 = Haworth projections. 4 = Mills projection. Every two anomers are designated alpha (α) or beta (β), according to the configurational relationship between the anomeric centre and the anomeric reference atom , hence they are relative stereodescriptors . [ 2 ]

  5. Pyranose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyranose

    Haworth drew the ring as a flat hexagon with groups above and below the plane of the ring – the Haworth projection. [ 3 ] A further refinement to the conformation of pyranose rings came when Sponsler and Dore (1926) realized that Sachse's mathematical treatment of six-membered rings could be applied to their X-ray structure of cellulose .

  6. Glucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose

    Glucose is a sugar with the molecular formula C 6 H 12 O 6.It is overall the most abundant monosaccharide, [4] a subcategory of carbohydrates.It is mainly made by plants and most algae during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight.

  7. Galactose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactose

    Galactose (/ ɡ ə ˈ l æ k t oʊ s /, galacto-+ -ose, "milk sugar"), sometimes abbreviated Gal, is a monosaccharide sugar that is about as sweet as glucose, and about 65% as sweet as sucrose. [2] It is an aldohexose and a C-4 epimer of glucose. [3] A galactose molecule linked with a glucose molecule forms a lactose molecule.

  9. Glycoside - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycoside

    The given definition is the one used by IUPAC, which recommends the Haworth projection to correctly assign stereochemical configurations. [ 4 ] Many authors require in addition that the sugar be bonded to a non-sugar for the molecule to qualify as a glycoside, thus excluding polysaccharides .
