Vedclass · Answer

(D) Mutarotation is a characteristic property of reducing sugars,which possess a free hemiacetal or hemiketal group that allows them to exist in equilibrium between their open-chain and cyclic forms. $A$. Glucose is a reducing sugar and shows mutarotation. $B$. Maltose is a reducing sugar and shows mutarotation. $C$. Lactose is a reducing sugar and shows mutarotation. $D$. Sucrose is a non-reducing sugar because both the anomeric carbons of glucose and fructose are involved in the glycosidic linkage. Therefore,it does not show mutarotation.

List-$I$ $(\text{Saccharides})$	List-$II$ $(\text{Glycosidic linkages found})$
$(A)$ Sucrose	$(I)$ $\alpha 1-4$
$(B)$ Maltose	$(II)$ $\alpha 1-4$ and $\alpha 1-6$
$(C)$ Lactose	$(III)$ $\alpha 1-\beta 2$
$(D)$ Amylopectin	$(IV)$ $\beta 1-4$
