Chemistry Question from JEE Main 2025 · 3 April, Shift 1

Which of the following is the correct structure of L-fructose?

  • A
    Fischer-type projection of a six-carbon sugar-like structure with top OH group, carbonyl near the top, and several hydroxyl groups arranged on both sides.
  • B
    Fischer-type projection of a six-carbon ketose-like structure showing top OH, carbonyl at second carbon, and hydroxyl groups placed mostly on the left side.
  • C
    Fischer-type projection of a six-carbon ketose-like structure with top OH, carbonyl near the top, one hydroxyl on the right and lower chiral-center hydroxyl on the left.
  • D
    Fischer-type projection of a six-carbon sugar-like structure without a clear ketone at second carbon, showing multiple hydroxyl groups on alternating sides.
