|
Mutarotation |
In the presence of water, a hemiacetal cyclic sugar will rotate between alpha and beta anomer states |
|
Reducing sugar |
Any sugar with a hemiacetal ring; can be reduced in its open form |
|
Tollen's Reagent |
Tests for reducing sugars Ag+ reduced |
|
Benedict's Reagent |
Tests for reducing sugars An aldehyde will become oxidized, and Cu2O precipitate is created |
|
Conjugation |
Alternating single and double bonds. This puts the p orbitals in plane which delocalizes electrons. A quite stable formation |
|
Torsional Strain |
When rotating a molecule around a bond, the torsionalstrain is the repulsion caused by the electrons in between different groupswhen they pass by each other. This occurs if a molecule is forced into an eclipsed or gauche formation |
|
Steric Strain |
In organic chemistry, the increase in potential energy by the repulsion of electrons from atoms that aren't directly bonded to one another |
|
Angle Strain |
A molecule forced into non-ideal angles with the particular hybrid orbitals |
|
Strecker Synthesis |
Reagents Aldehyde NH4Cl KCN Steps Imine formation CN- attack on imine carbon Continuous attack by water |
|
Alkyl Group NMR Reading |
0-3 ppm |
|
Diastereomer |
Same bonding, different spatial arrangement, not mirror images |
|
Epimer |
A diastereomer that differs at only 1 chiral center |
|
Anomer |
An epimer (diastereomer) where the chiral center is the anomeric carbon |
|
Anomeric carbon, alpha and beta anomer |
The carbon atom that, after cyclization, is the stereocenter of the molecule Alpha anomer = axial, trans Beta anomer = equatorial, cis |
|
N+1 Rule |
In NMR, a proton next to "n" adjacent carbons will split into "N+1" peaks |
