Mutаrоtаtiоn is the chаnge in оptical rotation observed in sugar solutions as they reach an equilibrium between their α and β anomers. This phenomenon occurs because sugars, particularly those with hemiacetal or hemiketal structures, can open into a linear form in solution and re-close to form either anomer. Each anomer has a distinct optical rotation, and over time, the solution stabilizes to a specific rotation reflecting the equilibrium mixture. Mutarotation is influenced by factors like pH, temperature, and solvent and is significant in biological processes, as enzyme specificity often depends on the sugar’s anomeric form, impacting pathways and reactions where sugars play a role. According to the above Haworth Projection, which carbons determine the stereochemistry and which carbon is the anomeric carbon, respectively?
