Vedclass · Answer

(D) Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of $D-(+)$-glucose and $D-(-)$-fructose linked by a glycosidic bond. It is a non-reducing sugar because both anomeric carbons are involved in the glycosidic linkage. On hydrolysis,it yields an equimolar mixture of $D-(+)$-glucose and $D-(-)$-fructose. Aspartame is an artificial sweetener made from aspartic acid and phenylalanine,not from sucrose. Therefore,the statement that sucrose gives aspartame on heating is false.
