Question For the cyclic monosaccharides below, determine the following: a) Circle the anomeric carbon . b) Give the name for the main sugar ring (i.e. furanose or pyranose) I don’t understand how to determine the name of main sugar ring, how to know if it’s pyranose or furanose? Based on what factors to circle the anomeric carbon ?
