प्रश्न
Give two evidences for presence of formyl group in glucose.
Advertisements
उत्तर
- Glucose gets oxidized to a six-carbon monocarboxylic acid called gluconic acid on reaction with bromine water which is a mild oxidizing agent. Thus, the carbonyl group in glucose is in the form of formyl (–CHO).
- Hemiacetal group of glucopyranose structure is a potential aldehyde (formyl) group. It imparts reducing properties to glucose. Thus, glucose gives positive Tollen’s test or Fehling test.
