Natural glucose is termed \(D-\) glucose because
- A \(- OH\) on the second carbon is on the right side in Fischer projection
- B \(- OH\) on the sixth carbon is on the right side in Fischer projection
- C \(- OH\) on the fifth carbon is on the right side in Fischer projection
- D It is dextrorotatory
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(- OH\) on the fifth carbon is on the right side in Fischer projection
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Fisher gave the prefix \('D''\) to compounds whosebottom chiral hasits \(OH\) to the right. So natural glucoseis called \(D\,-\) glucose is called \(D\,-\) glucose or dextrose. Structure of \(D\,-\) glucose :
