Summary
-
1.
Comparison of the hydrolysis rates of D′-methoxy-D-hydroxy-methyldiglycolaldehyde and α-methylglucoside showed that a CHO group in the α-position relative to an acetal bond lowers the stability of the latter in an acid medium.
-
2.
The formation of CHO groups at C2 and C3 in an oxidized unit of a cellulose molecule must lead to weakening of the acetal bond in it in an acid medium.
