27 Draw the condensed structural formula for the product in each of the following  

The simplest carbohydrates are monosaccharides, which consist of a chain of carbon atoms. They all contain several hydroxyl (—OH) groups as well as an aldehyde (—CHO) group as the first carbon, or a ketone (C=0) group as the second carbon. The most common monosaccharide—glucose, also known as blood sugar—is an aldehyde. Fructose, the sweetest carbohydrate, is a ketone. Both glucose and fructose are found in honey. 

Galactose, a monosaccharide found in milk and milk products, has the structure shown at right  

A disaccharide consists of two monosaccharide units joined together. For example, ordinary table sugar, sucrose, is a disaccharide that contains one molecule of glucose and one molecule of firactose. Polysaccharides are carbohydrates that are naturally occurring polymers such as amylose and cellulose, which contain many monosaccharide units of glucose. Although we

Section 8.5 is now titled Biochemical Compounds Extended Topic, which discusses functional groups in carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. 

Chapter 8, Chemical Reactions, looks at the interaction of atoms and molecnles in chemical reactions. Chemical equations are balanced and organized into combination, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, and combnstion reactions. Section 8.4, Functional Gronps and Reactions of Organic Componnds, and Section 8.5, Biochemical Compounds, are now Extended Topics, which classify compounds according to their strnctures to predict their properties and reactions. The Chemistry Link to Health featnres, Amines in Health and Medicine and Omega-3 Fatty Acids in Fish Oils, ... 

Basic data coverage in this section commences with fluonnated methanes, ethanes, ethylenes, acrylates, aliphatic monofluondes (pnmary, secondary, and tertiary), and geminal difluondes (pnmary and secondary) The compilation continues with six categones of tnfluoromethylated compounds and finishes with aromatic fluondes 19F-NMR applications extend greatly beyond simple structure determination Six of these special topics are bnefly surveyed, including analytical NMR methods and biochemical NMR studies...
