Show the products when Salicin undergoes acid-catalyzed hydrolysis.

The hydrochloric acid-catalyzed reaction of either α-D-ribose or β-D-ribose with excess methanol produces a mixture of α and β anomers of methyl D-ribofuranoside. Illustrate the reactants, reagents, and products for the reaction. Identify the aglycone in the products by circling it.

What products will be formed when D-mannose reacts with ethanol and HCl?

Aminoglycosides are relatively stable in basic conditions, but it is readily cleaved by acid. Draw a mechanism for acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of an aliphatic aminoglycoside.

Determine the final product when L-glucose reacts with NaBH₄ in MeOH.
