Optical rotations of some compounds along with their structures are given below which of them have D configuration.

Question

Optical rotations of some compounds along with their structures are given below which of them have D configuration. (I) (II) (III)

Philoid · Accepted Answer

All the three monosaccharides have D configuration because the hydroxyl group on the lowest asymmetric carbon is on the right hand side. Thus, option (i) is correct.

Options (ii), (iii) and (iv) are incorrect because all the three monosaccharides have D configuration.
