Use the following figures to name the given monosaccharides.
(a) C2 epimer of D-allose
(b) C4 epimer of D-galactose
(c) C3 epimer of D-xylose
Which pair of molecules below can be classified as epimers?
Use the given figures to determine the C-3 epimer of D-altrose.
With the help of the given figures, determine the C-2 epimer of D-gulose.
With the help of the given structures, determine the C-4 epimer of D-tagatose.
Write the structure: (i) the C2 epimer of D-glucose, (ii) the C3 epimer of D-galactose.
When galactose isomerizes in a basic solution, talose is one of the products that is formed. However, in the enzyme-catalyzed reaction, only tagatose is formed. Explain.
