In carbohydrate chemistry, a pair of anomers (from Greek ἄνω 'up, above' and μέρος 'part') is a pair of near-identical stereoisomers or diastereomers...

material in a solution due to a change in proportion of the two constituent anomers (i.e. the interconversion of their respective stereocenters) until equilibrium...

at the anomeric carbon are called anomers. The anomers of D-glucopyranose are diastereomers, with the beta anomer having a hydroxyl (−OH) group pointing...

α-arbutin, is a glycosylated hydroquinone, and an anomer of the naturally occurring arbutin. α-Arbutin is used in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries...

the ring. The resulting possible pair of stereoisomers is called anomers. In the α anomer, the -OH substituent on the anomeric carbon rests on the opposite...

2',6,6'-Tetrasubstituted biphenyls can fit into this latter category. Anomerism is an identity for single bonded ring structures where "cis" or "Z" and...

R* descriptor. To designate two anomers the relative stereodescriptors alpha (α) and beta (β) are used. In the α anomer the anomeric carbon atom and the...

which is not involved in a glycosidic bond, could be either an α- or β-anomer depending on the bond direction of the attached hydroxyl group relative...
