AQA A Level Biology復(fù)習(xí)筆記1.1.7 Disaccharides
Disaccharides: Common Examples
- Monosaccharides?can join together via?condensation reactions?to form?disaccharides
- A condensation reaction is one in which two molecules join together via the formation of a new chemical bond, with a?molecule of water?being?released?in the process
- The new chemical bond that forms between two monosaccharides is known as a?glycosidic bond
- To calculate the chemical formula of a disaccharide, you add all the carbons, hydrogens and oxygens in both monomers then subtract 2x H and 1x O (for the water molecule lost)
- Common examples of disaccharides include:
- Maltose?(the sugar formed in the production and breakdown of starch)
- Sucrose?(the main sugar produced in plants)
- Lactose?(a sugar found only in milk)
- All three of the common examples above have the formula?C12H22O11
Common Disaccharides and their Monosaccharide Monomers Table
The disaccharide maltose is formed from two α-glucose monomers (sub-units)
The disaccharide sucrose is formed from α-glucose and fructose monomers (sub-units)
Exam Tip
Like glucose, galactose and fructose are monosaccharides and actually have the same molecular formula as glucose. However, the atoms that make up these three monosaccharides are arranged in different ways, meaning they each have slightly different molecular structures, giving them slightly different properties.
