JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2024 - 4th April Evening Shift - No. 2)

Match List I with List II

LIST I LIST II
A. $$\alpha$$ - Glucose and $$\alpha$$ - Galactose I. Functional isomers
B. $$
\alpha \text { - Glucose and } \beta \text { - Glucose }
$$
II. Homologous
C. $$
\alpha \text { - Glucose and } \alpha \text { - Fructose }
$$
III. Anomers
D. $$
\alpha \text { - Glucose and } \alpha \text { - Ribose }
$$
IV. Epimers

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I

Explanation

$$\alpha$$-Glucose and $$\alpha$$-Galactose differ in configuration of one asymmetric carbon. Thus they are epimers.

$$\alpha$$ and $$\beta$$-glucose differ at anomeric carbon. Thus they are anomers.

$$\alpha$$-Glucose and $$\alpha$$-Fructose have different functional groups. Thus they are functional isomers.
