Question

Show the products that result from hydrolysis of amygdalin in dilute acid. Can you suggest why amygdalin might be toxic to tumor (and possibly other) cells?

Accepted Answer

Hello, everyone. Today we have the following problem show the products when solicit undergoes acid catalyzed hydraulics. Sis. So before we do that, let's make note of a few things. Sugars can be in different forms and sugars in the form of a stalls are known as Glencoe sides. And because they exist as stable a settles rather than hemi a settles, they are locked in there and ceramic form like other settlers, they hydro hydrolyzed in Aquarius acid to basically form a free sugar and alcohol. So these form a sugar and an alcohol within an agreed solution. Of course, on the other hand, we have sugars known as a lie cones and a glass cones are essentially when we have a hetero atom or an atom other than carbon bonded to the panoramic carbon atom. So in this given reaction, we're going to have two products, we're gonna have a glucose molecule and we're gonna have an ache like home. So we're gonna draw the products down here. We're gonna have following glucose molecules and then we are going to form are a Google icon, which is going to be the following cyclic structure. We're gonna have a methyl hydroxy group down there. And we're also going to have a hydroxyl group here. So we have our a girl icon and then we have our glucose molecule and with that, we have solved the problem overall, I hope this helped. And until next time.
