Chapter 15 Carbohydrates 15.5Disaccharides
Important Disaccharides A disaccharide • consists of two monosaccharides Monosaccharides Disaccharide Glucose + glucose maltose + H2O Glucose + galactose lactose + H2O Glucose + fructose sucrose + H2O
Maltose Maltose is • a disaccharide also known as malt sugar • composed of two D-glucose molecules • obtained from the hydrolysis of starch • linked by an -1,4-glycosidic bond between the —OH on C1 of the first glucose and —OH on C4 of the second glucose • used in cereals, candies, and brewing • found in both the - and - forms
Lactose Lactose • is a disaccharide of -D-galactose and - or-D-glucose • contains a -1,4-glycosidic bond • is found in milk and milk products • is found in both the - and - forms
Sucrose Sucrose, or table sugar, • is obtained from sugar cane and sugar beets • consists of -D-glucose and -D-fructose • has an ,-1,2-glycosidic bond
Learning Check Draw the Haworth structures and give the names of the two monosaccharides that form when sucrose is hydrolyzed.
Sweeteners Sugars and artificial sweeteners • differ in sweetness • are compared to sucrose (table sugar), which is assigned a value of 100
Learning Check Identify the monosaccharides in each of the following: A. lactose 1) -D-glucose 2) -D-fructose 3) -D-galactose B. maltose 1) -D-glucose 2) -D-fructose 3) -D-galactose C. sucrose 1) -D-glucose 2) -D-fructose 3) -D-galactose
Solution Identify the monosaccharides in each of the following: A. lactose 1) -D-glucose 3) -D-galactose B. maltose 1) -D-glucose C. sucrose 1) -D-glucose 2) -D-fructose
