Question

Hydrolysis of sucrose gives :

(A) α-D-(–)-Glucose and β-D-(–)-Fructose
(B) α-D-(+)-Glucose and α-D-(–)-Fructose
(C) α-D-(–)-Glucose and α-D-(+)-Fructose
(D) α-D-(+)-Glucose and β-D-(–)-Fructose

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Sucrose is formed by α–D(+) Glucose + β–D (–) Fructose. We obtain these monomers on hydrolysis.
