Ribose and 2 -deoxyribose can be differentiated by
- A Fehling's reagent
- B Tollen's reagent
- C Barfoed's reagent
- D Osazone formation
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Osazone formation
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Ribose forms osazone with \(\mathrm{Ph}-\mathrm{NH}-\mathrm{NH}_{2}\) whereas in deoxyribose, one - OH group is missing, due to which, it cannot form osazone.
