Chapter 20.6, Problem 20.15P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The link between monosaccharides in cellobiose has to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Cellobiose is a disaccharide composed of two β-D-glucose.

The linkage between monosaccharides in a disaccharide is referred to as a glycosidic linkage. Glycosidic linkage forms by reaction of the OH group on the anomeric carbon of one monosaccharide with a OH group of a second monosaccharide, the naming of linkage is according to the number of the carbon at which the linkage begins and the carbon on the second monosaccharide at which the linkage ends.
