Carbohydrates - absolute configuration, epimers, common names | MCAT | Khan Academy

[@electricostrich9515]

I was totally lost on how to memorize those structures, I think you may have just saved me with those tips. Thank you so much! :D

Ring Arabian Xylophones Loud
(Ribose Arabinose Xylose Lyxose)
All Altruists Gladly Make Gum In Gallon Tanks
(Allose Altrose Glucose Mannose Gulose Idose Galactose Talose)
We had to create a chart of configuration of D-Aldoses and these were the mnemonics taught to us.

[@rizqirizaldo]

Now I can definitely flip people off saying glucose

[@calvincheung1684]

I believe the first one should actually be D (-) tetrose

[@tomicaa11]

the best mnemotechnique ever

[@sciencenerd7639]

thanks!

[@joshuakim7619]

I like ur pneumonics

[@yasmintelwar]

I feel like the voiceover is done by the actor who plays Norman Bates on Bates Motel

[@mugdhabanduke5685]

Please add videos for advanced organic chemistry for naphthalene,anthracene,etc 🙏..

[@sohailabaheer3405]

OMG the glucose trick!!!!! haha

[@3zOzXzoom]

man
you're amazing
i bet we could knock out our lecturer
and make you both switch places xD

[@shivanksinha704]

Damn.

[@abubakkarsaddiq5299]

thank you soo much sir g

[@broadwayjoe5401]

better mnemonic for D-mannose "Peace Man"

[@hstudy8406]

Nice

[@Om-jg5yj]

If you stick out your middle and ring fingers for D-galactose it could be like the spock hand sign from star trek (minus the pointer and pinky fingers), which is a GALACTIC sign of peace i think

[@shivanksinha704]

Sick man.

[@soura]

Why does Glucose ring formation occurs between C1 and C5
(and not like between C1 and C4/C3/C6)

[@GamingShow11]

thanks a lot i love you

[@aboofahd1679]

fantastic

[@NeuElement]

Mannose is would do a peace sign and say "Man" in a hippy way.

[@arshiatalebi3217]

Isnt galactose a ketohexose?

[@moristhetiger]

presence of just one ketone or aldehydes annihilates the possibility of symmetry popping up 😏

[@maybeokie]

the structures for glucose and galactose are wrong, they are epimers on c-4

[@skashani6]

I'm confused by your comment. They look correct to me? Can you elaborate?

[@muhammadibrahimkhalil7370]

He means both glucose and galactose have same structure but differs at structure at 4th carbon.

[@meax5439]

great video!!!

[@protipsbynani289]

Glucose not gulose

[@jenj4961]

Doesn’t the lowest chiral center have an (S) stero here why did you say R?

[@TheEpiphany101]

.... What is a "threose" ??? :/

[@Marisaprincess47]

He said glucose and mannose are diastereoisomers, but wouldn't they be epimers?

[@usernameisgood]

All epimers are diastereomers

[@Bhan7140]

Could you explain why two D-glucose molecules look different at 3:52?

[@Om-jg5yj]

the first one says D-gulose, which is a different sugar than D-glucose

[@donjam33]

D ➡😮

[@shantanuthakur6081]

Are all D and L molecules enantiomers of each other? (Not just biomolecules)

[@luwluwstarshyne]

9:11 xDD

[@bentom345]

flipping of means something slightly different in the uk

[@97niso]

Am i the only one who doesn't see a man holding a gun for Mannose...?

[@farreladhikaputra5704]

girls love mannose

[@BigBlueEgg]

I'd say they love galactose

[@hazratullahhisham]

You don't have taste like Khan.......
but still good just because you are working in khan academy.

[@shivanksinha704]

?

[@wintaering]

youre lovely.

[@alisonmiller5984]

if i drank alcohol for everytime u said "D" i wld be a drunk mofo . great video tho ;)

Amazing
