Vedclass · Answer

(A) Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of one molecule of $\alpha-D$-glucose and one molecule of $\beta-D$-fructose.These two monosaccharide units are linked by a glycosidic linkage between $C1$ of $\alpha-D$-glucose and $C2$ of $\beta-D$-fructose.Therefore,the systematic $IUPAC$ name of sucrose is $\alpha-D$-glucopyranosyl-$\beta-D$-fructofuranoside.
