Explain why glucose penta acetate does not react with hydroxylamine ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To explain why glucose pentaacetate does not react with hydroxylamine, we can break down the reasoning into several steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Structure of Glucose Pentaacetate Glucose pentaacetate is a derivative of glucose where all five hydroxyl (-OH) groups of glucose are converted into acetate (-OCOCH3) groups. In its cyclic form, glucose pentaacetate has a specific structure where the carbonyl group (aldehyde) is involved in the formation of the cyclic structure. ### Step 2: Identify the Functional Groups Hydroxylamine (NH2OH) reacts primarily with carbonyl compounds, such as aldehydes and ketones, to form oximes. In glucose pentaacetate, the carbonyl group (CHO) that would typically react with hydroxylamine is not available because it is involved in the cyclic structure. ...
