What is Carbohydrates? - The empiric formula is (CH 2 O)n, “hydrates of carbon ” CHEMICAL ELEMENTS CARBON , HYDROGEN , OXYGEN
What is a MONOMER? It means “ Building Block ”. A molecule that can be bonded to other identical molecules to form a polymer. What is the monomer of CARBOHYDRATES? Saccharides Sugar Glucose (C6H12O6) Energy ( brain cells/ thinking,breathing,moving ) Aids in digestive process,breaking down and digesting fats and proteins
LET’S WATCH THE VIDEO OF CARBOHYDRATES…
“Eat more and it will turns to FAT” “If we eat more carbohydrates than are needed for energy, the extra is stored in the liver or in the tissues as FAT.
What is Saccharides? 3
What are the functions of Carbohydrates? Provide energy (most important) Provide bulk in the diet Provide dietary Fiber Assist in the metabolism of fats Spare protein for tissue maintenance
What are the forms of Carbohydrates? COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES( a.k.a.“starches ”) POLYSACCHARIDES (many) e.g., starches,cellulose,fibers SIMPLE CARBOHYDRATES(a.k.a. “sugars”) MONOSACCHARIDES (1) DISACCHARIDES (2)
What are some sources of Starch and Sugars? Sources of Sugars Fruits, honey, milk, juices (100% cocktails), alcohol, syrups, cakes, cookies,candies,soda,added to many refined foods. Sources of starch cereals grains( wheat,oats,rice,etc ), pasta,breads,legumes , vegetables,potatoes,anything made with flour
Types of Carbohydrates?
2 Carbohydrates C arbohydrates are broadly defined as polyhydroxy as al d ehy d es or ke t one s a n d t h eir derivat i ves or substances that yields one of these compounds Composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen Functional groups present include hydroxyl groups -ose indicates sugar
C arbohydrates are the most abundant of all the organic compounds in nature. In plants, energy from the Sun is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into the carbohydrate glucose. Many of the glucose molecules are made into long-chain polymers of starch that store energy. About 65% of the foods in our diet consist of carbohydrates. Each day we utilize carbohydrates in foods such as bread, pasta, potatoes, and rice. Other carbohydrates called disaccharides include sucrose (table sugar) and lactose in milk. During digestion and cellular metabolism, carbohydrates are converted into glucose, which is oxidized further in our cells to provide our bodies with energy and to provide the cells with carbon atoms for building molecules of protein, lipids, and nucleic acids. In plants, a polymer of glucose called cellulose builds the structural framework. Cellulose has other important uses, too. The wood in our furniture, the pages in your notebook, and the cotton in our clothing are made of cellulose.

5 Classification of Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are classified according to the number of subunits that make them up 3 Types of Carbohydrates Monosaccharides Oligosaccharides Disaccharides Trisaccharides T etrasa c charides Polysaccharides
6 Monosaccharides are simple sugars, or the compounds which possess a free aldehyde (CHO) or ketone (C=O) group and two or more hydroxyl (OH) groups. They are the simplest sugars and cannot be hydrolysed further into smaller units. Monosaccharides contain a single carbon chain and are classified on the basis of number of carbon atoms they possess, and as aldoses or ketoses depending upon their groups.

A component of each disaccharide . Monosaccharides Hexoses Galac t ose The essential energy source for all body functions . Seldom occurs freely in nature Binds with glucose to form sugar in milk: lactose. Once absorbed by the body, galactose is converted to glucose to provide energy.
Compiled and Edited by Dr.Syed Ismail,MAU, Parbhani 9 Steriochemistry Optical isomers (= enantiomers) differ from each other in the disposition of the various atoms or groups of atoms in space around the asymmetric carbon atom. These are, in fact, the mirror image of each other. These may also be likened to left- and right-handed gloves. One form in which H atom at carbon 2 is projected to the left side and OH group to the right is designated as D-form and the other form where H atom is projected to the right side and OH group to the left is called as L-form (note the use of small capital letters D and L) For example, the glyceraldehyde has only one asymmetric carbon atom (numbered as 2) and it can, therefore, exist in 2 isomeric forms :
D-Aldoses containing three , four , five and six atoms 10
11 Properties of monosaccharides Mutarotation : when a monosaccharide is dissolved in water, the optical rotatory power of the solution gradually changes until it reaches a constant value. For ex : when D- glucose is dissolved in water, a specific rotation of +112.2 o is obtained, but this slowly changes , so that at 24h the value has become +52.7 o . This gradual change in specific rotation is known as mutarotation. This phenomenon is shown by number of pentoses, hexoses and reducing disaccharides. Glucoside formation : when D-glucose solution is treated with methanol and HCl, two compounds are formed, these are α – and β-D- glucosides. Thus, formed glucosides are not reducing sugar and also doesnot show phenomenon of mutarotation Reducing power : Sugars having free or potentially free aldehyde or ketone group have an ability to reduce the cupric copper to cuprous oxidized + 2Cu + Reducing sugar + 2 Cu ++ (cupric) sugar (cuprous) Oxidation / Reduction: The alcoholic OH, aldehyde (COH) or keto (C=O) group are oxidized to carboxyl group with certain oxidizing agents. The oxidation may be brought under mild or with vigorous oxidizing condition With mild oxidant like BrH 2 O : In this group only aldehyde is oxidized to produce gluconic acid (monocarbonic). Ketoses do not respond to this reaction.
12 With strong Oxidizing agent like Conc HNO 3 : Both aldehyde or ketone groups are oxidized to yield dicarboxylic acids Oxidation with metal hydroxides: Metal hydroxides like Cu(OH)2, Ag OH oxidize free aldehyde or ketone group of mutarotating sugar and reduce themselves to lower oxides of free metals Reduction: The aldehyde or ketone group present can be reduced to its respective alcohol with sodium amalgum. For ex: Fructose and glucose give the hexahydric alcohol i.e. Sorbitol and Mannitol Dehydration : The monosaccharides when treated with Conc H 2 SO 4 , it get dehydrated to from 5 – hydroxyl – methyl furfural derivative Methylation or Esterification : The glucosidic and alcoholic OH group of mono saccharides and reducing disaccharides react with acetylating agent like acetic anhydride in pyridine to from acetate derivatives called esters.
C arbohydrates with free carbonyl groups or in hemiacetal form give positive tests to Benedict’s and Fehling’s reagents without having been hydrolyzed are referred as ‘reducing’ sugars ; others ( i . e ., the acetal types) are then ‘non-reducing’ sugars
Oligosaccharides These are compound sugars that yield 2 to 10 molecules of the same or different monosaccharides on hydrolysis. Accordingly, an oligosaccharide yielding 2 molecules of monosaccharide on hydrolysis is designated as a disaccharide, and the one yielding 3 molecules of monosaccharide as a trisaccharide and so on. Disaccharides – Sucrose, Lactose, Maltose, Cellobiose, Trehalose, Gentiobiose, Melibiose Trisaccharides – Rhamninose, Gentianose, Raffinose (= Melitose), Rabinose, Melezitose Tetrasaccharides – Stachyose, Scorodose Pentasaccharide – Verbascose The molecular composition of the 3 legume oligosaccharides (viz., raffinose, stachyose and verbascose) is shown below : α-Galactose (1–6) α-Glucose (1–2) β-Fructose Raffinose α-Galactose (1–6) α-Galactose (1–6) α-Glucose (1–2) β-Fructose Stachyose α-Galactose (1–6) α-Galactose (1–6) α-Galactose (1–6) α-Glucose (1–2) β-Fructose Verbascose
15 Disaccharides Composed of 2 monosaccharides cells can make disaccharides by joining two monosaccharides by biosynthesis. Glucose + fructose = sucrose Table sugar Found naturally in plants: sugar cane, sugar beets, honey, maple syrup Sucrose may be purified from plant sources into Brown, White and Powdered Sugars. Glucose + galactose = lactose The primary sugar in milk and milk products. Many people have problems digesting large amounts of lactose (lactose intolerance) Glucose + glucose = Maltose Produced when starch breaks down. Used naturally in fermentation reactions of alcohol and beer manufacturing.
16 Trisaccharides: Composed of three monosaccharide ex: Raffinose (Formed by one mole of each i.e. glu, fruc, galac) Tetrasaccharides : ex: Stachyose (composed of two moles of galactose one mole of glu & one mole of fruct)
Compiled and Edited by Dr.Syed Ismail,MAU, Parbhani 17 Polysaccharides C ontaining 10 or more monosaccharide units attached together Examples Starch- digestible Glycogen- digestible Fiber- indigestible Long chains of glucose units form these polysaccharides Cellulose gives structure to plants, fiber to our diet Glycogen is an energy storage sugar produced by animals Liver cells synthesize glycogen after a meal to maintain blood glucose levels
homopolysaccharides , which yield, on hydrolysis, a single monosaccharide and heteropolysaccharides ,which produce a mixture of monosaccharides on hydrolysis. Based on their functional aspect, the polysaccharides may be grouped under two heads : Nutrient (or digestible ) polysaccharides. These act as metabolic reserve of monosaccharides in plants and animals, e.g ., starch, glycogen and inulin. Structural (or indigestible ) polysaccharides. These serve as rigid mechanical structures in plants and animals, e.g .,cellulose, pectin and chitin and also hyaluronic acid and chondroitin . A great majority of carbohydrates of nature occur as polysaccharides C hemically , the polysaccharides may be distinguished into
19 Types of Polysaccharides 1. Starch The major digestible polysaccharide in our diet. The storage form of carbohydrate in plants. Sources: Wheat, rice, corn, rye, barley, potatoes, tubers, yams, etc. Two types of plant starch: Amylose Amylopectin
20 Amylose : is in the form of straight chain linked together with α- 1-4, linkages indicating 300 – 5,500 glucose units per molecules, molecular wt range from 10 5 to 10 6 . Generally it is water soluble and gives blue colour with iodine. Amylopectins : It contain beside straight chain several branched chains, which are arranged in α—1-4 and β-1-6 linkage units, one molecule of amylopectin contains 50,000 to 5,00,000 glucose molecules, molecular wt. range from 10 7 to 10 8 , it is insoluble in water and gives purple colour with iodine .
Compiled and Edited by Dr.Syed Ismail, MAU, Parbhani 21 Types of Polysaccharides 2. Cellulose - form cell walls in plant cells also called fiber or ruffage indigestible by humans
22 Types of Polysaccharides 3. Glycogen The storage form of glucose in the body. Stored in the liver and muscles. Found in tiny amounts in meat sources. Not found in plants. Not a significant food source of carbohydrate.
Glucose is the most important energy source of carbohydrates to the mammals (except ruminants). The bulk of dietary carbohydrate (starch) is digested and finally absorbed as glucose into the body. Dextrose (glucose in solution in dextrorotatory form) is frequently used in medical practice. Fructose is abundantly found in the semen which is utilized by the sperms for energy. Several diseases are associated with carbohydrate's e.g., diabetes mellitus, glycogen storage diseases galactosemia. Accumulation of sorbitol and dulcitol in the tissues may cause certain pathological conditions e.g. cataract, nephropathy. The non-digestible carbohydrate cellulose plays a significant role in human nutrition. These include decreasing the intestinal absorption of glucose and cholesterol, and increasing bulk of feces to avoid constipation. The mucopolysaccharide hyaluronic acid serves as lubricant and shock absorbent in joints. The mucopolysaccharide heparin is an anticoagulant( prevents blood clotting). The survival of Antarctic fish below -2 o C is attributed to the antifreeze glycoproteins. streptomycin is a glycoside employed in the treatment of tuberculosis Some clinical concepts

Stereoisomerism
STRUCTURAL ISOMERISM GEOMETRICAL ISOMERISM Occurs due to the restricted rotation of C=C double bonds... two forms… CIS and TRANS OPTICAL ISOMERISM CHAIN ISOMERISM Same molecular formula but different structural formulae Occurs when molecules have a chiral centre. Get two non- superimposable mirror images. STEREOISOMERISM Same molecular formula but atoms occupy different positions in space. POSITION ISOMERISM FUNCTIONAL GROUP ISOMERISM
Geometric isomers
In alkenes CIS Groups/atoms are on the SAME SI DE of the double bond TRANS Groups/atoms are on OPPOSITE SIDES across the double bond
RESTRICTED ROTATION OF C=C BONDS Single covalent bonds can easily rotate . What appears to be a different structure is not. It looks like it but, due to the way structures are written out, they are the same. ALL THESE STRUCTURES ARE THE SAME BECAUSE C-C BONDS HAVE ‘FREE’ ROTATION
RESTRICTED ROTATION OF C=C BONDS C=C bonds have restricted rotation so the groups on either end of the bond are ‘frozen’ in one position; it isn’t easy to flip between the two. This produces two possibilities . The two structures cannot interchange easily so the atoms in the two molecules occupy different positions in space .
cis tra ns cis tra ns
Isomerism Constitutional Isomers: Same atoms but linked (bonded) together differently. Spatial orientation not important. 3-methylpentane h e x a n e cyclohexane Are these constitutional isomers of cis but-2-ene? Not this one! It is 2-butene. Cis / trans does not matter.
Stereoisomerism Stereoisomers : Same molecular formulae, same connectivity; same constitutional isomer. Different spatial orientation of the bonds. Are these stereoisomers of cis but-2-ene? How does the connectivity differ between these two?
Enantiomers and Diastereomers Two kinds of Stereoisomers Enantiomers : stereoisomers which are mirror objects of each other. Enantiomers are different objects, not superimposable. Diastereomers : stereoisomers which are not mirror objects of each other. If a molecule has one or more tetrahedral carbons having four different substituents then enantiomers will occur. If there are two or more such carbons then diastereomers may also occur.
Isomers, contain same atoms, same formula Constitutional isomers, different connectivities, bonding. Stereoisomers, same connectivity, different three dimensional orientation of bonds Enantiomers, mirror objects Diastereomers, not mirror objects Summary of Isomerism Concepts
Mirror Ob j ects – Carbon with 4 di f fe r ent substituen t s. W e These are m differently ? irror o ? Can We can superimpose two atoms. but not all four atoms. expect enantiomers (mirror objects). Reflect! The mirror plane still relates the two structures. Notice that we can characterize or name the molecules by putting the blue in the back, drawing a circle from purple, to red, to green. Clockwise on the right and counterclockwise on the left. Arbitrarily call them R and S. R S Arrange both structures with the light blue atoms towards the rear…. Notice how the reflection is done, straight through the mirror!
Recap: Tetrahedral Carbon with four D i f ferent Substituents. Enantiom e rs Simple Rotation, Sa me Simple Rotation, Sa me Mirror objects. Different, not su p er i mp o sa b l e . E n a n tiom e rs
But the reflection might have been done differently. Position the mirror differently…. Reflection can give any of the following… mirror object? All three of these structures are the same, just made by different mirrors. The structures are superimposable. What rotations of the whole molecules are needed to superimpose the structures?
Now Superimposable mirror objects : Tetrahedral Carbon with at least two identical substituents . Reflection can interchange the two red substituents. Clearly interchanging the two reds leads to the same structure, superimposable ! Remember it does not make any difference where the mirror is held for the reflection. This molecule does not have an enantiomer; the mirror object is superimposable on the original, the same object.
Polarized light vibrates in one plane only, in contrast to ordinary light, which vibrates in all planes. What causes such a rotation of the plane of polarized liight? According to the van’t Hoff theory, such an effect on the plane polarized light is due to the presence of one or more chiral carbon atoms.
Fischer projection A two-dimensional method of indicating the structure of an enantiomer. Horizontal lines indicate bonds extending forward from the paper and the vertical lines indicate bonds extending backward from the paper. The formulas are always written with the aldehyde(or ketone) group)-the most highly oxidized-at the top. C HO H C O H CH 2 OH H O H C H O CH 2 OH convert to a Fischer projection
