Question:
Pyranose ring of glucose is formed due to the reaction between:
Pyranose ring of glucose is formed due to the reaction between:
Show Hint
When studying sugar chemistry, remember that the pyranose ring forms when the aldehyde on C\(_1\) reacts with the hydroxyl group on C\(_5\).

- C\(_1\) and C\(_3\)
- C\(_1\) and C\(_5\)
- C\(_1\) and C\(_4\)
- C\(_1\) and C\(_2\)
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The pyranose ring of glucose is formed by a reaction between the hydroxyl group on carbon C\(_5\) and the aldehyde group on carbon C\(_1\), resulting in a cyclic structure. This reaction is an example of intramolecular hemiacetal formation. The resulting structure is a six-membered ring, known as the pyranose form of glucose.
