Calculate the free energy difference, delta Go, between a and ß forms (36:64) of D-glucose at 298K

Question

David · Accepted Answer

The main difference between α form and β form of D-glucose is that position of anomeric 
OH group at C1. In α form the hydroxyl group is in axial position which will have 1, 3-diaxial 
strain whereas in β form the hydroxyl group is in equatorial position which lacks the 1, 3-
diaxial strain.
