• Glucose is a simple sugar with six carbon atoms and one aldehyde
group has a chemical formula C6H12O6.
• It is also known as dextrose. It is referred to as aldohexose as it
contains 6 carbon atoms and an aldehyde group.
• Glucose is optically active dextrorotatory isomer and hence known as Dextrose.
• Glucose is found in most sweet fruits, especially grapes
(20–30%), and honey. It is an essential constituent of
human blood. The blood normally contain 65 to 110 mg
(0.06 to 0.1%) of glucose per 100 ml. in diabetic persons
the level may be much higher.
• In the combined form glucose occurs in abundance
in cane sugar and in polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose.
PREPARATION OF GLUCOSE.
Glucose is produced commercially by the hydrolysis of
starch with dilute hydrochloric acid at high temperature
under pressure.
An aqueous suspension of starch obtained from corn is acidified withhydrochloric acid, It is then heated when the hydrolysis is complete, theliquid is neutralised with sodium carbonate the resulting solution isconcentrated under reduced pressure to get the crystals of glucose.

Glucose can also be prepared by hydrolysing
the Cane sugar in presence of mineral acid like dilute
hydrochloric acid or by action of an enzyme invertase.
Physical properties of glucose.
Glucose is a white crystalline solid, When crystallized from cold
water, it forms glucose monohydrate (C6H12O6.H2O), mp 86°C.
It is extremely soluble in water, only sparingly so in ethanol, and
insoluble in ether. It is about three-fourths as sweet as cane sugar (sucrose).
It is optically active, and the ordinary naturally occurring form is (+)-
glucose.

Elucidation of glucose.
The structure of glucose may be elucidated using the following points:
• Open Chain formula
• Configuration
• Cyclic structure
• Haworth representation.

Open Chain formula
1. Molecular Formula: The elemental analysis and molecular weight determination have
established that glucose has the molecular formula C6H12O6.
2. Presence of 5 OH group:
Glucose reacts with acetyl chloride or with acetic anhydride to form
pentaacetyl derivative. This shows the presence of five hydroxyl
groups in glucose. Since glucose is a stable compound, no two OH groups are
attached to the same carbon. In other words, the five OH group are on
different carbons.
7 July 2021 Mrs. G. JEELANI BEGUM 28
3. Presence of carbonyl ( C=O) group:
Glucose reacts with hydroxylamine to form an oxime and with phenyl hydrazine it form phenylhydrazone. These reaction suggests the presence of a carbonyl group in glucose.
4. Presence of aldehyde(-CHO) group: On mild oxidation with bromine water, glucose is converted to
gluconicacid with the same number of carbon atoms. This show that the carbonyl group in glucose is an aldehyde not a ketogroup. That -CHO group has been oxidised to -COOH.
Further the presence of aldehyde group is confirmed by reduction with sodium-amalgam forming hexahydric alcohol, Sorbitol. Here -CHO
7 July 2021 Mrs. G. JEELANI BEGUM 29
5. Presence of 6-carbon arranged in straight chain:
The complete reduction of glucose with concentrated hydrogen iodide
and red phosphorus at 370K it gives 2-iodohexane and on prolonged
heating gives n-hexane. This proves that glucose molecule is made of
six-carbon chain arranged in straight chain. (C-C-C-C-C-C)
6. Construction of open-chain formula.
Knowing that glucose has a straight 6-carbon chain
with a terminal CHO, the five OH groups, Baeyer
proposed the open-chain structure for glucose and it
can be written as :

7. Configuration of D-Glucose
The configuration of D-glucose was proved by Emil Fischer and it isstated below:
Construction of four possible D-pentoses:
• Taking the configuration of
D-glyceraldehyde as the standard, two
possible D-aldotetroses (A and B) is
obtained by adding a CHOH just
below CHO, placing OH to the right
and then to the left.
7 July 2021 Mrs. G. JEELANI BEGUM 31
• Similarly, each of the two D-tetroses (A and B) gives two D-aldopentoses. Thus four possible D-aldopentoses are shownbelow:
7 July 2021 Mrs. G. JEELANI BEGUM 32
D-Arabinose has configuration II or IV.
• Oxidation of D-arabinose with nitric acid oxidizes theterminal CHO and CH2OH groups forming two opticallyactive (asymmetric) dicarboxylic acids. The forms II and IVcan form two optically active (asymmetric) dicarboxylicacids, whereas I and III can give mesoacids only that has aplane of symmetry. Therefore, D-arabinose is either II or IV.
Configuration II confirmed for D-arabinose.
• D-arabinose by Killiani -Fischer synthesis yields twoepimeric aldohexoses, D-glucose and D-mannose. These onoxidation with nitric acid form two optically active(asymmetric) dicarboxylic acids. This is possible only if D-arabinose has the configuration II and not IV.
7 July 2021 Mrs. G. JEELANI BEGUM 33
• If D arabinose has configuration IV, of the two dicarboxylicacids derived from it, one gives meso form and the other one is asymmetric (optically active). Hence D-arabinose has configuration II.
Ruff degradation of D-glucose and D-mannose produces D- arabinose in each case.
• In ruff degradation, the CHOH below CHOH is destroyed. Therefore, the configuration of the two aldohexoses, D-glucose and D-mannose, can be derived by adding a new CHOH below CHO in form II of D-arabinose.
