The Organic Chemistry of Carbohydrates 6th Edition Paula Yurkanis Bruice Chapter 22 The Organic Chemistry of Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates General molecular formula is Cn(H2O)n. Structurally, are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones. The most abundant carbohydrate in nature is glucose.

Simple carbohydrates are monosaccharides Complex carbohydrates contain two or more sugar units linked together: Disaccharides Oligosaccharides Polysaccharides Polyhydroxy aldehydes are aldoses Polyhydroxy ketones are ketoses

D and L notations are used to describe the configurations of carbohydrates:

Configurations of Aldoses Aldotetroses have two asymmetric centers and four stereoisomers: Aldopentoses have three asymmetric centers and eight stereoisomers Aldohexoses have four asymmetric centers and 16 stereoisomers

Diastereomers that differ in configuration at only one asymmetric center are called epimers: D-Mannose is the C-2 epimer of D-glucose D-Galactose is the C-4 epimer of D-glucose

A ketose has one fewer asymmetric center than an aldose. Therefore, ketoses have fewer stereoisomers than aldoses. Naturally occurring ketoses have the ketone group in the 2-position.

Mechanism for the base-catalyzed epimerization of a monosaccharide:

Mechanism for the base-catalyzed enediol rearrangement of a monosaccharide:

Redox Reactions of Monosaccharides The carbonyl of aldoses and ketoses can be reduced by the carbonyl-group reducing agents:

Oxidation The aldehyde groups can be oxidized by Br2 Ketones and alcohols cannot be oxidized by Br2

Both aldoses and ketoses are oxidized to aldonic acids by Tollens reagent:

A strong oxidizing agent such as HNO3 can oxidize both the aldehyde and the alcohol groups: A primary alcohol is the one most easily oxidized

Osazone Formation Aldoses and ketoses react with three equivalents of phenylhydrazine to form osazones:

The C-2 epimers of aldoses form identical osazones… …because the configuration of the C-2 carbon is lost during osazone formation

The C-1 and C-2 carbons of ketoses also react with phenylhydrazine:

The carbon chain of an aldose can be increased by one carbon in a Kiliani–Fischer synthesis: This reaction leads to a pair of C-2 epimers

The Wohl degradation shortens an aldose chain by one carbon:

D-Glucose exists in three different forms: anomer The specific rotation of pure a-D-glucose or b-D-glucose changes over time to reach an equilibrium (mutarotation) anomer

If an aldose can form a five- or six-membered ring, it will exist predominantly as a cyclic hemiacetal:

Six-membered rings are called pyranoses. Five-membered rings are called furanoses. The prefix a- indicates the configuration about the anomeric carbon.

Ketoses also exist predominantly in cyclic forms:

b-D-Glucose is the most stable of all aldohexoses and predominates at equilibrium:

Formation of Glycosides The acetal (or ketal) of a sugar is called a glycoside:

Mechanism for glycoside formation

Formation of an N-Glycoside

Hilbert–Johnson Reaction Selective -anomer formation: Oxocarbocation formation:

-Nucleophilic attack: Hydrolysis:

Glycoside Formation in Diabetes Glucose can form glycosides with amine groups on HEME: Glycated hemoglobin test: Without diabetes, 5.5 to 9% glycated HEME With diabetes, 10.9 to 15.5% glycated HEME

The Anomeric Effect The preference of certain substituents bonded to the anomeric carbon for the axial position is called the anomeric effect:

Reducing and Nonreducing Sugars A sugar with an aldehyde, a ketone, a hemiacetal, or a hemiketal group is a reducing sugar A sugar without one of these groups is a nonreducing sugar Nonreducing sugar cannot reduce Ag+ or Br2

Disaccharides Composed of two monosaccharide subunits hooked together by an acetal linkage: In a-maltose, the OH group bonded to the anomeric carbon is axial Maltose is a reducing sugar

In cellobiose, the two subunits are hooked together by a b-1,4-glycosidic linkage Cellobiose is a reducing sugar

In lactose, the two different subunits are joined by a b-1,4-glycosidic linkage: The -1,4 glycosidic linkage is cleaved by the enzyme lactase Without lactase, lactose is turned into gases by flora in the lower bowel, producing flatulence and bloating Lactose is a reducing sugar and undergoes mutarotation

The most common disaccharide is sucrose Sucrose is not a reducing sugar and does not exhibit mutarotation

How Does Beano Work? Raffinose trisaccharide is found in beans and a variety of grains and vegetables -GAL is not in the human digestive tract. Raffinose is not cleaved to sucrose and galactose. Lower gut flora converts raffinose to gases; flatulence results. Galactose Cleaved by -galactosidase (-GAL) Sucrose Glucose Fructose Beano contains fungal -GAL that cleaves raffinose and other polysaccharides

Polysaccharides Amylose is a component of starch:

Amylopectin is another polysaccharide component of starch that has a branched structure:

Cellulose is the structural material of higher plants: a-1,4-Glycosidic linkages are easier to hydrolyze than b-1,4-glycosidic linkages because of the anomeric effect

An example of a naturally occurring product derived from carbohydrates:

D-Ribose is the sugar component of ribonucleic acid D-2-Deoxyribose is the sugar component of deoxyribonucleic acid

Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) is synthesized from D-glucose:

Proteins bonded to oligosaccharides are called glycoproteins:

Blood type is determined by the nature of the sugar bound to the protein on the surface of red blood cells:
