Methyl –D-glucoside and methyl –D- glucoside are

A.epimers
B.anomers✓ Correct
C.enantiomers
D.conformational diastereomers
Explanation

The isomers which differ in configuration at asymmetric carbon C₁ produced due to ring formation are known as anomers. Methyl –D-glucoside and methyl –D- glucoside differ in configuration at C₁ carbon. Hence are anomers.
