Which of the following reactions of glucose can be explained only by its cyclic structure?

A

Glucose forms pentaacetate

B

Glucose reacts with hydroxylamine to form an oxime

C

Pentaacetate of glucose does not react with hydroxylamine

D

Glucose is oxidised by nitric acid to gluconic acid

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Due to absence of free OH group at `C_1`, cyclic structure of glucose pentacetate cannot revert to open chain aldehydic form and hence cannot form an oxime.
