Furanose to Pyranose: The Mystery Finally Explained!
Conformational analysis, a pivotal technique in stereochemistry, provides a framework for understanding the dynamic equilibrium between furanose and pyranose forms. The Anomeric Effect profoundly influences this equilibrium, favoring specific anomers due to electronic stabilization within the cyclic structure. Carbohydrate Chemistry as a field extensively studies these interconversions, revealing the underlying principles governing the furanose to […]
