Write mechanisms that account for the products of the following reactions. Describe a category of the reactions (e.g. E1, E2, S1, and S,2) Is rearrangement possible?


3. Relationship between the given molecules • D-glucose and L-glucose - Both are enantiomers of each other. • D-glucose and D-galactose-Both are diastereomers of each other. And also, the difference between these two is found in C4 carbon so these two are epimers of each other. • L-glucose and L-fructose- Both are constitutional isomers of each other.


Discuss whether the results from Series I concur with the interfacial film theory of Schulman and Cockbain.
