IMPORTANT REACTIONS OF GLUCOSE(C6H12O6)
Glucose(C6H12O6) is an aldohexose and is also known as dextrose. It is the monomer of many of
the larger carbohydrates, namely starch, cellulose. It is probably the most abundant organic
compound on earth. It was assigned the structure given below on the basis of the following
evidences:
1. On prolonged heating with HI, it forms n-hexane, suggesting that all the six carbon atoms are
linked in a straight chain.
