D-tagatose is a 2-ketohexose which forms same osazone as D-galactose. What is the structure of D-tagatose

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Since D-tagatose (a keto hexose) and D-galactose form the same osazone, they have same configuration at `C-3, C-4, C-5 and C-6`

  • Monosaccharides have -CHO (or C=O) and -OH groups, so they undergo usual oxidation and reduction. Further, monosaccharides from osazone when treated with excess of phenylhdrazine (3 equivalents). In osazone formation only the first two carbon atoms are involved. Thus monosaccharidxes having identical configuration on reset of C atoms except first two will form same osazone, as is the case with glucose and fructose. A, B and C are three hexoses and form same osazone D. Compounds A to D behave as below (A) D overset(HCl)rarr underset(CH_(3)COOH)overset(Zn)rarr D - Fructose (B) A overset(Ni.H_(2))rarr overset(HNO_(3))rarr underset(H_(3)O^(+))overset(Na-Hg)rarr B + C (C ) B overset(HNO_(3))rarr Optically active glycaric acid (D) C overset(HNO_(3))rarr Optically inactive glycaric acid Compound D is an osazone which can be obtained from
