List the reactions of glucose which cannot be explained by its open chain structure.

Answer

  1. Despite having the aldehyde group, glucose does not give 2, 4-DNP test or Schiff’s test.
  2. It does not form the hydrogensulphite addition product with NaHSO3.
  3. The pentaacetate of glucose does not react with hydroxylamine indicating the absence of free –CHO group.
