Question

D(+)-Glucose reacts with hydroxylamine and forms oxime. The structure of oxime would be:

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Hint:

When glucose reacts with hydroxylamine, the aldehyde group (-CHO) reacts to form an oxime (-C=NOH) in which the nitrogen atom is bonded to the carbon of the aldehyde group.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

When glucose reacts with hydroxylamine, it forms an oxime. In this reaction, the aldehyde group (-CHO) in glucose reacts with hydroxylamine (NH₂OH) to form the oxime group (-C=NOH). The correct structure of the oxime formed from glucose would be: The structure would show the oxime group (-C=NOH) replacing the aldehyde group, and the rest of the glucose structure remains the same.
