Which of the following pair form the same osazone ?

Options

A. Glucose and fructose
B. Glucose and galactose
C. Glucose and arabinose
D. Lactose and maltose

Answer

A

Explanation

All monosaccharides which differ in configuration at `C_(1)` and `C_(2)` gives the same osazone. Since, glucose and fructose differ from each other only in configuration at `C_(1)` and `C_(2)` therefore, they give the same osazone. All other options given in the questions do not satisfy this condition and hence, do not from the same osazone.
