Glycosidic linkage between $C_1$ of $\alpha$-glucose and $C_2$ of $\beta$-fructose is found in
- Amaltose
- Correct answerBsucrose
- Clactose
- Damylose
Solution
- Maltose is composed of two glucose units.
- Sucrose has glycosidic linkage between $\mathrm{C}_1$ of $\alpha$-glucose and $C_2$ of $\beta$-fructose.
- Lactose is composed of galactose and glucose
- Amylose has glycosidic linkage between $C_1$ of $\alpha$-glucose $C_4$ of $\alpha$-glucose.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
