Key Points: Haworth Representation

A Haworth projection is important to quickly and easily see the 3D orientation of a cyclic sugar. The Haworth projection is important with sugar molecules.

If the sugar is a D-sugar place a -СН2ОН above the ring on the carbon to the left of the oxygen, for an L-sugar place it below the ring.

Finally, -OH groups on the right go below the ring and those on the left above, using the -CН2OH group as the reference point for both projection.
