7. Formation of the ring
• In glucose the carbonyl group
is linked to the 5th C-atom
• New asymmetric C-atom (C1)
→ anomeric C-atom
• 2 stereoisomers
o Differ in position of OH-
group of C1
α-D-glucose Open form β-D-glucose
8. Haworth projection
• OH-group right → OH-group
below plane of ring
• OH-group left → OH-group
above plane of ring
• Beta = oben
α-D-glucose β-D-glucose
α-D-glucopyranose β -D-glucopyranose
• There is an equilibrium between the different forms
of glucose in an aqueous solution
• Mutarotation describes the phenomenon that the

rotation angle of a freshly made solution might
change over time until it reaches a constant value
