JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2008 - No. 15)
$$\alpha$$-D-(+)-glucose and $$\beta$$-D-(+)-glucose are
conformers
epimers
anomers
enantiomers
Spiegazione
Since $$\alpha - D - \left( + \right) - \,\,$$ glucose and $$\beta - D - \left( + \right)\,\,$$ glucose differ in configuration at $$C-1$$ atom so they are anomers.
NOTE : Anomers are those diastereomers that differ in configuration at $$C-1$$ atom. i.e., $$(c)$$ in the correct answer.
