Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals
Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals • Although, the open chain structures of monosaccharides are consistent with the chemistry of carbohydrates, in reality they are oversimplifications of the true structure of carbohydrates. • It is common knowledge that aldehydes react with alcohols to form hemiacetals. In cases where a molecule is a hydroxyaldehyde such as 4- hydroxybutanal or 5-hydroxypentanal, cyclic hemiacetals result. 9:47 AM 1 Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals • Aldoses often contain an aldehyde group and several hydroxyl groups as part of the same molecule; they have a greater tendency of forming cyclic hemiacetals. In fact, in aqueous solution carbohydrates exist almost exclusively in the ring-closed form At equilibrium, the linear aldehyde or ketone structure represents less than 1% of the sugar present. • Five and six-membered rings are thermodynamically more stable than their corresponding four and seven membered rings, since they are less strained. • Five- (furanoses) and six-membered cyclic hemiacetals (pyranoses) are often more stable than their open-chain forms. In particular the six-membered rings which can adopt a chair conformation are 9:47 AM 2 essentially free from all types of strains. Structures of Monosaccharides Evidence for Existence of Monosacharides as Hemiacetals What physical, chemical and spectroscopic evidence support the existence of monosaccharide sugars as cyclic hemi-acetals. (a) Two anomers of glucose capable of existing independently with different physical (melting points and specific optical rotation) and chemical properties can be obtained by recrystallization. (b) the 1H-NMR and IR-spectra of solutions of pure sugars show the presence of mixtures (anomeric hemiacetals) and absence of an aldehydic peak is a sufficient indicator that the sugars exist in some other form other than the open-chain form. -
Hexose Oxidase from Chondrus Crispus Expressed in Hansenula Polymorpha
Chemical and Technical Assessment 63rdJECFA Hexose Oxidase from Chondrus Crispus expressed in Hansenula Polymorpha CHEMICAL AND TECHNICAL ASSESSMENT (CTA) Prepared by Jim Smith and Zofia Olempska-Beer © FAO 2004 1 Summary Hexose oxidase (HOX) is an enzyme that catalyses the oxidation of C6-sugars to their corresponding lactones. A hexose oxidase enzyme produced from a nonpathogenic and nontoxigenic genetically engineered strain of the yeast Hansenula polymorpha has been developed for use in several food applications. It is encoded by the hexose oxidase gene from the red alga Chondrus crispus that is not known to be pathogenic or toxigenic. C. crispus has a long history of use in food in Asia and is a source of carrageenan used in food as a stabilizer. As this alga is not feasible as a production organism for HOX, Danisco has inserted the HOX gene into the yeast Hansenula polymorpha. The information about this enzyme is provided in a dossier submitted to JECFA by Danisco, Inc. (Danisco, 2003). Based on the hexose oxidase cDNA from C. crispus, a synthetic gene was constructed that is more suitable for expression in yeast. The synthetic gene encodes hexose oxidase with the same amino acid sequence as that of the native C. crispus enzyme. The synthetic gene was combined with regulatory sequences, promoter and terminator derived from H. polymorpha, and inserted into the well-known plasmid pBR322. The URA3 gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker’s yeast) and the HARS1 sequence from H. polymorpha were also inserted into the plasmid. The URA3 gene serves as a selectable marker to identify cells containing the transformation vector. -

In this study, we describe for the first time an approach to analyse intact glycosidic aroma precursors in grapes by high-performance liquid chromatography with a diode array detector (HPLC-DAD), a simple and cheap analytical technique that could be used in wineries. Briefly, the skin of Muscat of Alexandria grapes was extracted using a microwave and purified using solid-phase extraction combining Oasis MCX and LiChrolut EN cartridges. In total, 20 compounds were selected by HPLC-DAD at 195 nm and taking as a reference the spectrum of phenyl β-D-glucopyranoside, whose DAD spectrum showed a first shoulder from 190 to 230 nm and a second around 200–360 nm. -

Aldehydes Can React with Alcohols to Form Hemiacetals
340 14 . Nucleophilic substitution at C=O with loss of carbonyl oxygen You have, in fact, already met some reactions in which the carbonyl oxygen atom can be lost, but you probably didn’t notice at the time. The equilibrium between an aldehyde or ketone and its hydrate (p. 000) is one such reaction. O HO OH H2O + R1 R2 R1 R2 When the hydrate reverts to starting materials, either of its two oxygen atoms must leave: one OPh came from the water and one from the carbonyl group, so 50% of the time the oxygen atom that belonged to the carbonyl group will be lost. Usually, this is of no consequence, but it can be useful. O For example, in 1968 some chemists studying the reactions that take place inside mass spectrometers needed to label the carbonyl oxygen atom of this ketone with the isotope 18 O. 16 18 By stirring the ‘normal’ O compound with a large excess of isotopically labelled water, H 2 O, for a few hours in the presence of a drop of acid they were able to make the required labelled com- í In Chapter 13 we saw this way of pound.

Carbohydrates Adapted from Pellar
Carbohydrates Adapted from Pellar OBJECTIVE: To learn about carbohydrates and their reactivities BACKGROUND: Carbohydrates are a major food source, with most dietary guidelines recommending that 45-65% of daily calories come from carbohydrates. Rice, potatoes, bread, pasta and candy are all high in carbohydrates, specifically starches and sugars. These compounds are just a few examples of carbohydrates. Other carbohydrates include fibers such as cellulose and pectins. In addition to serving as the primary source of energy for the body, sugars play a number of other key roles in biological processes, such as forming part of the backbone of DNA structure, affecting cell-to-cell communication, nerve and brain cell function, and some disease pathways. Carbohydrates are defined as polyhydroxy aldehydes or polyhydroxy ketones, or compounds that break down into these substances. They can be categorized according to the number of carbons in the structure and whether a ketone or an aldehyde group is present. Glucose, for example, is an aldohexose because it contains six carbons and an aldehyde functional group. Similarly, fructose would be classified as a ketohexose. glucose fructose A more general classification scheme exists where carbohydrates are broken down into the groups monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides are often referred to as simple sugars. These compounds cannot be broken down into smaller sugars by acid hydrolysis. Glucose, fructose and ribose are examples of monosaccharides. Monosaccharides exist mostly as cyclic structures containing hemiacetal or hemiketal groups. These structures in solution are in equilibrium with the corresponding open-chain structures bearing aldehyde or ketone functional groups. The chemical linkage of two monosaccharides forms disaccharides. -

The purpose of this year’s project was to teach students how to synthesize a molecule that potentially mimics an existing drug that works against the COVID-19. The available drugs chosen for the project are those that are proposed to work either by prohibiting the easy entry of the virus into respiratory tissues or those who deprive the virus’s ability to reproduce once they enter the cell. An investigative search in historical literature and the current conditions of the virus enabled students to create a unique and innovative product that requires a cumulative learned knowledge. History has shown that when a new virus becomes pandemic it takes time for researchers to create a drug, test the results, and gets approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for public availability. -
