What are the correct structural descriptions for $\mathbf{M}$ and $\mathbf{N}$ ?
Figure

  • A
    $\mathbf{M}$ is $\beta$-D-(+)-glucopyranose and $\mathbf{N}$ is $\beta$-D-(-)-fructofuranose
  • B
    $\mathbf{M}$ is $\alpha$-D-(+)-glucopyranose and $\mathbf{N}$ is $\alpha$-D-(-)-fructofuranose
  • C
    $\mathbf{M}$ is $\alpha$-D-(+)-glucofuranose and $\mathbf{N}$ is $\beta$-D-(-)-fructopyranose
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\mathbf{M}$ is $\alpha$-D-(+)-glucopyranose and $\mathbf{N}$ is $\beta$-D-(-)-fructofuranose

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
