Question
List the reactions of glucose which cannot be explained by its open chain structure.
✓
Answer
- Despite having the aldehyde group, glucose does not give 2, 4-DNP test or Schiff’s test.
- It does not form the hydrogensulphite addition product with NaHSO3.
- The pentaacetate of glucose does not react with hydroxylamine indicating the absence of free –CHO group.
