These two compounds are enantiomers

Because of the convention of the Fischer Projection (i.e., the vertical lines are going back and the horizonal lines are coming forward) the 90° rotated Fisher projection is actually the enantiomer of the original

2. If one group of the Fischer projection is held steady, the other groups can be rotated either clockwise or counter clockwise. hold this group steady

1. Assign priorities to the four substituents according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog convention. 2. Perform the two allowed manipulations of the Fischer projection to place the lowest priority group on one of the vertical positions (either top or bottom) 3. If the priorities of the other three groups (1-2-3) proceed clockwise, the stereogenic center is assigned as R. If the priorities of the other three groups (1-2-3) proceed counter clockwise, the stereogenic center is assigned as S. 4 H

Carbohydrates and amino acids are designated as D- or L- according to the stereochemistry of the highest numbered carbon in the Fischer projection. If the hydroxyl group (or amino group for amino acids) is pointing to the right in the Fischer Projection, the sugar (or amino acid) is designated as D. If the hydroxyl group (or amino group for amino acids) is pointing to the left in the Fischer projection, the sugar (or amino acid) is designated as L. Most naturally occurring carbohydrates are of the D-configuration while most naturally occurring amino acids are L. 1 CHO H 2 OH 3 HO H 4 H OH highest numbered stereogenic carbon

Converting Fischer Projections into Haworth Projections. 1. Identify the hydroxyl group which is cyclizing onto the carbonyl group. This hydroxy will become the ring oxygen in the hemiacetal or hemiketal form of the carbohydrate. For D-glucose, it is the C5 hydroxyl in the pyranose form; for D-ribose, it is the C4-hydroxyl for the furanose form. 2. Manipulate the Fischer projection so this hydroxyl group is on the bottom. 3. Draw the Haworth projection so that the ring oxygen is on the top. For pyranoses, draw the sixmembered ring laying on it side with a oxygen at the upper right. 4. Substituents on the right side of the Fischer projection will be on the bottom face of the Haworth projection. Substituents on the left side of the Fischer projection will be on the top face of the Haworth projection. 5. Remember that in the cyclic form, the C1-hydroxyl group (the anomeric center) can usually adopt either the up or down configuration. T T
