5 Questions

Which reagent is used to form osazones with sugars?

Phenylhydrazine

What type of sugars can form osazone crystals?

Sugars containing free carbonyl group

What is the characteristic of osazone crystals?

They are well-defined and distinctive crystals

What products are typically generated when D-Mono Saccharides are fermented?

Ethanol and carbon dioxide

How do D-Mono Saccharides typically undergo fermentation?

By the action of bacteria or yeast

Learn about the condensation reaction involved in the formation of osazones from sugars like glucose and fructose with Pheny! hydrazine. Explore how all sugars containing a free carbonyl group can form osazone crystals and how D-Mono Saccharides undergo fermentation by bacteria or yeast, resulting in the production of cue and ethyl alcohol.
