The beta (β) Fructose molecule - rotatable in 3 dimensions. Fructose (fruit sugar) is a monosaccharide - formula C 6 H 12 O 6. It shares the same empirical formula with other 6-carbon (hexose) sugars such as glucose and galactose.
Compare Alpha and Beta Fructose; Compare Glucose and Fructose in the Chair Structures; Problems; Contributors; Fructose is more commonly found together with glucose and sucrose in honey and fruit juices. Fructose, along with glucose are the monosaccharides found in disaccharide, sucrose.
Although fructose is a hexose (6 carbon sugar), it generally exists as a 5-member hemiketal ring (a furanose). This structure is responsible for the long metabolic pathway and high reactivity compared to glucose (See below structure -note: hydrogens not shown)
Fischer Projection. representation of a 3D molecule as a flat structure where a tetrahedral carbon is represented as two crossed lines.
In this chapter, we’ll first consider how macromolecules are built. Then we’ll examine the structure and function of all four classes of large biological molecules: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
Molecular and Structure Formula of Fructose Fructose is a levorotatory monosaccharide, which means it rotates the plane-polarised light in the left direction. The chemical composition of fructose is C 6 H 12 O 6 but shows different bonding from glucose.
