Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates

Fun Facts:


Photosynthesis converts more than
100 billion metric tons of CO2 and H20
into carbohydrates annually.
Non-photosynthetic cells can make
there own glucose from amino acids,
fats and other breakdown products.

Haworth Projections





a five- or six-membered cyclic hemiacetal is
represented as a planar ring
groups lie either above or below the plane
the new carbon stereocenter is called an
anomeric carbon
stereoisomers that differ in configuration
only at the anomeric carbon are called
anomers
the anomeric carbon of an aldose is C-1; that
of the most common ketoses is C-2
Haworth Projections

Terminology of carbohydrate chemistry,



 means that the anomeric -OH is on the same
side of the ring as the terminal -CH2OH
 means that the anomeric -OH is on the side of
the ring opposite the terminal -CH2OH
a six-membered hemiacetal ring is called a
pyranose, and a five-membered hemiacetal ring
is called a furanose
Haworth Projections


aldopentoses also form cyclic hemiacetals
the most prevalent forms of D-ribose and
other pentoses in the biological world are
furanoses

Mutarotation: the equilibrium
interconversion of - and -anomers
in aqueous solution

very happy if you can draw

Chemical Properties

Monosaccharides

Hemiacetal into acetal – glycosidic bond



A glycosidic bond slows mutarotation to snails pace.
Acid is needed to break acetal or ketal
Aldose’s reduce Cu2+, Fe3+, and cold MnO4

Only works with the linear aldehyde form
Hemiacetals are in equilibrium with aldehyde form



Called reducing sugars
Glycosides cannot reduce these
Carbonyl can be reduced
Formation of Glycosides

alcohol gives an acetal

Glycosides




a cyclic acetal derived of a
monosaccharide is called a glycoside
the bond from the anomeric carbon to the
-OR group is called a glycosidic bond
mutarotation is VERY SLOW in a
glycoside
glycosides are stable in water and
aqueous base, but like other acetals, are
hydrolyzed in aqueous acid to an alcohol
and a monosaccharide
Oxidation to Aldonic Acids



the aldehyde group of an aldose is oxidized under
basic conditions to a carboxylate anion
the oxidation product is called an aldonic acid
reducing sugar (it reduces the oxidizing agent)

D-Glucuronic Acid



D-glucuronic acid exists in the plants and animals
in humans, it is an important component of the
acidic polysaccharides of connective tissues
it is used to detoxify foreign phenols and alcohols; in
the liver, these compounds are converted to
glycosides of glucuronic acid and excreted in the
urine

Polysaccharides

Polysaccharide: lots of monosaccharide
units


Also called glycans
Can be  or  linked anomers


One we can digest “”
The other we cannot “”
Polysaccharides - 

Starch: an energy storage polymer of Dglucose found in plants



starch can be separated into amylose and
amylopectin
amylose is D-glucose units joined by -1,4-bonds
Amylopectin - D-glucose units joined by -1,4
bonds; at branch points, new chains every 24 to
30 units are started by -1,6-glycosidic bonds
Polysaccharides - 

Glycogen is the energy-reserve
carbohydrate for animals


glycogen - glucose units joined by -1,4- and
-1,6-glycosidic bonds (branches occur every
8 to 12 residues - more compact than starch)
the total amount of glycogen in the body of a
well-nourished adult human is about 350 g,
divided almost equally between liver and
muscle
Polysaccharides - 

Why Store sugar as starch or glycogen?

Osmolarity



Individual sugars would be 0.4 M
Polymers (mostly insoluable) 10-8 M
Cells would burst with water running into
the to equilibrate osmotic pressure!
Polysaccharides - 

Cellulose is a linear polysaccharide of Dglucose units joined by -1,4-glycosidic bonds




it has an average molecular weight of 400,000
g/mol, approximately 2200 glucose units
cellulose molecules act like stiff rods and align
themselves side by side into well-organized waterinsoluble fibers in which the OH groups hydrogen
bond with each other rather than water.
this arrangement of parallel chains in bundles gives
cellulose fibers their high mechanical strength
it is also the reason why cellulose is insoluble in
water
Polysaccharides - 

Cellulose (cont’d)

animals cannot digest cellulose




no contain -glucosidases, enzymes that catalyze
hydrolysis of -glucosidic bonds
we have only -glucosidases; hence we can digest
starch and glycogen
many bacteria and microorganisms have glucosidases and can digest cellulose
termites have such bacteria in their intestines
and can use wood as their principal food
Acidic Polysaccharides

Acidic polysaccharides: contain carboxyl
groups and/or sulfuric ester groups


play important roles in the structure and function
of connective tissues
there are a large number of highly specialized
forms of connective tissue


such as cartilage, bone, synovial fluid, skin, tendons,
blood vessels, intervertebral disks, and cornea
most connective tissues are made up of collagen,
a structural protein, in combination with a variety
of acidic polysaccharides
Acidic Polysaccharides

Hyaluronic acid

Found in embryonic tissues, synovial fluid,
lubricant of joints in the body, and the
vitreous of the eye
