A. Structure and Nomenclature
• Carbohydrates means “hydrates of carbon ”
molecular formula (CH2O)n = (C . H2O)n
where n ≥ 3 or Cn(H2O)m
ex.
Glucose (blood sugar): C6H12O6
can also be written as C6(H2O)6
Sucrose (table sugar): C12H22O11
can also be written as C12(H2O)11

CARBOHYDRATES
are polyhydroxyaldehydes, polyhydroxyketones, and their derivatives
all carbons attached to an oxygen
originate from solar-powered combination of CO2 + H2O in plants (photosynthesis)

devised by Hermann Emil Fischer in 1891
is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional organic molecule by projection.
commonly designated using D,L system w/c is very common for sugars
– D,L designation refers to the configuration of
the highest-numbered asymmetric center
– D,L only refers the stereocenter of interest back
to D- and L glyceraldehyde
– D,L do not specify the sign of rotation of plane-
polarized light (that is d and l)

THREE MOST ABUNDANT HEXOSES
1. D-glucose
Glucose, also known as dextrose, is found in largequantities throughout the living world. It is theprimary fuel for living cells. In animals, glucose isthe is the preferred energy source of brain cells andcell that have few or no mitochondria, such aerythrocytes. Cells that have a limited oxygensupply, such as those in the eyeball, also use largeamounts of glucose to generate energy. Dietarysources include plant starch and the disaccharideslactose, maltose and sucrose.

THREE MOST ABUNDANT HEXOSES
2. D-galactose
Galactose is neccesary to synthesize a variety of
biomolecules. These include lactose (in lactating
mammary glands), glycolipids, certain
phospholipids, proteoglycans, and glycoproteins.
Synthesis of these substance is not diminished by
diets that lack galactose of the disaccharide
lactose .

THREE MOST ABUNDANT HEXOSES
3. D-fructose
Fructose, or levulose, is often referred to as fruit sugarbecause of its high content in fruit. It is also found insome vegetables as well as in honey. This molecules isan important member of the ketose family of sugars. Ona per gram basis, fructose is twice as sweet as sucrose. Itcan therefore be used in smaller amounts. For thisreason, fructose is often used as sweetening agent inprocessed food products. Large amounts of fructose areused in the male reproductive tract. It is synthesized inthe seminal vesicles and then incorporated into semen.Sperm use the sugar as an energy source.

D. Amino Sugars
• Only three amino sugars are common in nature: D-glucosamine, D-mannosamine, and D-galactosamine.
• N- Acetyl-D-glucosamine, a derivative of D-glucosamine, is a component of many polysaccharides, including connective tissue such as cartilage.
• It is also a component of chitin, the hard, shell-like exoskeleton of lobsters, crabs, shrimp, and other shellfish.

E. Physical Properties of Monosaccharides
• Monosaccharides are colorless, crystalline solids.
• All monosaccharides are very soluble in water because hydrogen bonding is possible between their polar -OH groups and water.
• They are only slightly soluble in ethanol.
• Insoluble in nonpolar solvents such as diethyl ether, dichloromethane, and benzene.

Cyclic Structures of Monossacharides
• Note cyclic hemiacetals form very readily when hydroxyland carbonyl groups are part of the same molecule and thattheir interaction produces a ring.
• 4-hydroxypentanal contains one stereocenter and thathemiacetal formation generates a second stereocenter atcarbon 1. 36

Anomeric Carbon - the carbon atom which is involved in hemiacetal or acetal formation.The new carbon stereocenter created in forming the cyclic structure.
Anomers - stereoisomers formed when ring is formed (α, β).
A. Haworth Projections
Typically, Haworth projections are most commonly drawn with the anomeric carbon to the right and the hemiacetal oxygen to the back.
![Page 40: Lec3 Carbohydrates-biochem(1).pdf](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020111/55cf9ca9550346d033aa9803/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
In the terminology of carbohydrate chemistry,
β means that the -OH on the anomeric carbon of
the cyclic hemiacetal lies on the same side of the ring
as the terminal -CH2OH
α means that the -OH on the anomeric carbon of
the cyclic hemiacetal lies on the side of the ring
opposite from the terminal -CH2OH.
The α and β anomers of D-glucose interconvert in
aqueous solution by a process called mutarotation.

The terms furanose and pyranose are used
because monosaccharide five- and six- membered
rings correspond to the heterocyclic compounds
furan and pyran.

Ketohexoses Cyclic Formation
• Ketohexoses also occur in α and β anomeric forms. • In these compounds the hydroxyl group at C-5 (or C-6)
reacts with the keto group at C-2, forming a furanose (or pyranose) ring containing a hemiketal linkage

Glycoside - a carbohydrate in which the --OH group on its anomeric
carbon is replaced by an --OR group.
Glycosidic bond - the bond from the anomeric carbon of a glycoside
to –OR group.

A. Formation of Glycosides (Acetals)
• Mutarotation is not possible in a glycoside because anacetal—unlike a hemiacetal—is no longer inequilibrium with the open-chain carbonyl containingcompound. Glycosides are stable in water andaqueous base; like other acetals, however, they arehydrolyzed in aqueous acid to an alcohol and amonosaccharide.

B. Reduction to Alditols The carbonyl group of a monosaccharide can be reduced to a
hydroxyl group by a variety of reducing agents, includinghydrogen in the presence of a transition metal catalyst andsodium borohydride.

B. Reduction to Alditols
• We name alditols by dropping the -ose from the name of the monosaccharide and adding -itol.
• Reduction of D-glucose gives D-glucitol, more commonly known as D-sorbitol.
• Sorbitol is found in the plant world in many berries and in cherries, plums, pears, apples, seaweed, and algae. It is about 60% as sweet as sucrose (table sugar) and is used in the manufacture of candies and as a sugar substitute for diabetics.

C. Oxidation to Aldonic Acids (Reducing Sugars)
The aldehyde group of an aldose can be oxidized, under basic conditions, to a carboxylate group.
70
• Any carbohydrate that reacts with an oxidizing agent to form an aldonic
acid is classified as a reducing sugar (it reduces the oxidizing agent).
![Page 71: Lec3 Carbohydrates-biochem(1).pdf](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020111/55cf9ca9550346d033aa9803/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
C. Oxidation to Aldonic Acids (Reducing Sugars)
2-ketoses are also reducing sugars but carbon 1 (a CH2OH) of ketose is not oxidized directly. Instead, a 2-ketose exists in equilibrium with an aldose by way of an enediol intermediate.

D. Oxidation to Uronic Acids
Enzyme-catalyzed oxidation of the primary alcohol at carbon 6 of a hexose yields a uronic acid.
72• D-glucuronic acid is widely distributed in both the plant and animal worlds.

D. Oxidation to Uronic Acids
•In humans, D-glucuronic acids serves as an importantcomponent of the acidic polysaccharides of connective tissues.The body also uses D-glucuronic acid to detoxify foreign phenolsand alcohols. In the liver, these compounds are converted toglycosides of glucuronic acid (glucuronides) and excreted in theurine. The intravenous anesthetic propofol, for example, isconverted to the following glucuronide and then excreted inurine:

E. The Formation of Phosphoric Esters
• In the synthesis and metabolism of carbohydrates, theintermediates are very often not the sugars themselvesbut their phosphorylated derivatives.
• Condensation of phosphoric acid with one of the hydroxylgroups of a sugar forms a phosphate ester, as in glucose 6-phosphate.
• Sugar phosphates are relatively stable at neutral pH andbear a negative charge.
• One effect of sugar phosphorylation within cells is to trapthe sugar inside the cell; most cells do not have plasmamembrane transporters for phosphorylated sugars.
• Phosphorylation also activates sugars for subsequentchemical transformation.

Disaccharides - a carbohydrate containing twomonosaccharide units joined by a glycosidic bond.
Oligosaccharides - a carbohydrate containing from six toten monossacharide units, each joined to the next by aglycosidic bond
Polysaccharide - a carbohydrate containing a large number of monosaccharide units, each joined to the next by one or more glycosidic bonds

DISACCHARIDESA. Sucrose
• Sucrose (table sugar) is the most abundant disaccharide in thebiological world. It is obtained principally from the juice of sugarcane and sugar beets.
• In sucrose, carbon 1 of α-D-glucopyranose bonds to carbon 2of D-fructofuranose by an α-1,2-glycosidic bond.
• Because the anomeric carbons of both the glucopyranose andfructofuranose units are involved in formation of the glycosidicbond, neither monosaccharide unit is in equilibrium with itsopen-chain form. Thus sucrose is a nonreducing sugar.
• In the production of sucrose, sugar cane or sugar beet isboiled with water, and the resulting solution is cooled. Sucrosecrystals separate and are collected. Subsequent boiling toconcentrate the solution followed by cooling yields a dark, thicksyrup known as molasses.

DISACCHARIDESB. Lactose
• Lactose is the principal sugar present in milk. It accounts for 5 to 8% of human milk and 4 to 6% of cow’s milk. • This disaccharide consists of D-galactopyranosebonded by a β-1,4-glycosidic bond to carbon 4 of D-glucopyranose. • Lactose is a reducing sugar, because the cyclic hemiacetal of the D-glucopyranose unit is in equilibrium with its open-chain form and can be oxidized to a carboxyl group.
![Page 81: Lec3 Carbohydrates-biochem(1).pdf](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020111/55cf9ca9550346d033aa9803/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)

DISACCHARIDESC. Maltose
• Maltose derives its name from its presence in malt, the juice from sprouted barley and other cereal grains.
• It consists of two units of D-glucopyranose joined by a glycosidic bond between carbon 1 (the anomericcarbon) of one unit and carbon 4 of the other unit.
• Because the oxygen atom on the anomeric carbon of the first glucopyranose unit is alpha, the bond joining the two units is an a-1,4-glycosidic bond.
• Following are a Haworth projection and a chair conformation for β-maltose, so named because the -OH groups on the anomeric carbon of the glucose unit on the right are beta.

DISACCHARIDESD. Relative Sweetness
The sweet taste of honey is due largely to D-fructose and D-glucose.
Lactose has almost no sweetness and is sometimes added to foods as
a filler. Some people cannot tolerate lactose well, however, and should
avoid these foods.

POLYSACCHARIDES
• Most carbohydrates found in nature occur as polysaccharides, polymers of medium to high molecular weight.
• Polysaccharides, also called glycans, differ from each other in the identity of their:
– recurring monosaccharide units,
– in the length of their chains,
– in the types of bonds
– linking the units,
– and in the degree of branching.87

• Starch is used for energy storage in plants. It is found in all plant seeds and tubers and is the form in which glucose is stored for later use.
• Most starches contain 20 to 25% amylose and 75 to 80% amylopectin.
• Complete hydrolysis of both amylose and mylopectin yields only D-glucose.

POLYSACCHARIDES
• Cellulose molecules act much like stiff rods, acharacteristic that enables them to align themselves sideby side into well-organized, water-insoluble fibers inwhich the OH groups form numerous intermolecularhydrogen bonds.
• This arrangement of parallel chains in bundles givescellulose fibers their high mechanical strength. It alsoexplains why cellulose is insoluble in water. When a pieceof cellulose-containing material is placed in water, thereare not enough -OH groups on the surface of the fiber topull individual cellulose molecules away from thestrongly hydrogen-bonded fiber.

POLYSACCHARIDES
• Humans and other animals cannot use cellulose asfood because our digestive systems do not contain β-glucosidases, enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis ofβ -glucosidic bonds.
• Instead, we have only α-glucosidases; hence, we usethe polysaccharides starch and glycogen as sources ofglucose.
• Glycogen and starch ingested in the diet arehydrolyzed by β-amylases, enzymes in saliva andintestinal secretions that break (α1→4) glycosidicbonds between glucose units.

POLYSACCHARIDES
• Many bacteria and microorganisms do contain β-glucosidases and so can digest cellulose.
• Termites (much to our regret) have such bacteria intheir intestines and can use wood as their principalfood. Ruminants (cud-chewing animals) and horsescan also digest grasses and hay because β-glucosidase-containing microorganisms are present intheir alimentary systems.
