Mannose is a naturally occurring sugar that is important to human metabolism. Mannose can exist in an open chain form (D‑mannose) or can cyclize to form a cyclic structure (β-D‑mannopyranose). Answer the questions below about D‑mannose and β-D‑mannopyranose. Which of the Fischer projections (A-F) below represent D‑mannose? [Fischer] Which of the chair conformations (T-Z) below represent the MOST stable conformation of β-D‑mannopyranose? [chair1] Which of the chair conformations (T-Z) below represent the LEAST stable conformation of β-D‑mannopyranose? [chair2] How many total possible stereoisomers are there for β-D‑mannopyranose (including the one drawn)? [stereopyr] How many diastereomers are possible for D-mannose? [diasman] The anomeric center of a cyclic sugar is the newly formed chiral center resulting from the cyclization reaction. Which of the carbon atoms labeled 1-6 above is the anomeric center? [anomeric] Identify ONE chair conformation (T-Z) that represents the enantiomer of β-D‑mannopyranose. [enantiomer] What is the relationship between the Fischer projections labeled D and E? [relationship]

Consider the hydrobromination reaction shown below and answer the questions that follow. In this reaction, a “MAJOR PRODUCT” is formed, i.e. a product that is formed in preference to the other. Assuming that the major product is derived from the most stable possible carbocation intermediate, which of the following molecules (A-F) would be the MAJOR product? [major] A “MINOR PRODUCT” is also possible in this reaction, i.e. any possible product that is not the major product. Which of the following molecules (A-F) would be the MINOR product? [minor] Considering only the major product, how many stereoisomers are possible for this molecule? [stereomajor] Considering only the minor product, how many stereoisomers are possible for this molecule? [stereominor]

Rank the following carbocations in order of increasing stability. least stable [1] < [2] < [3] < [4] most stable
