aldoses, and
those with

aldoses,
which have an
aldehyde group, and the ketoses,
which have a

Ketoses must

principle that, when heated,
ketoses are more
rapidly dehydrated than

-
monosaccharide ketoses are
reducing sugars,
because they can
tautomerize into
aldoses via an
enediol intermediate, and the
resulting aldehyde group can be oxidised...
