The stereochemistry of these sugars is represented using Fischer projections, with D and L configurations indicating the orientation of the hydroxyl group on the chiral carbon furthest from the aldehyde. Understanding these configurations helps in studying the structural and functional properties of carbohydrates.

Note that in both cases the D sugars have the OH going to the right on the chiral center furthest away from the carbonyl. Next rotate the model so that the H and OH of the chiral carbon just below the carbonyl are facing towards you. When converting bonds from going into the page to going out of the page the orientation of the H and OH are reversed.

    The absolute configuration at a chiral center in a molecule is a time-independent and unambiguous symbolic description of the spatial arrangement of ligands around it.

Compounds that arrange the substituent groups in the same way as (+)-glyceraldehyde are given the designation D, while compounds that arrange the substituent groups in the same way as (–)-glyceraldehyde are given the designation L.

Similarly, the –OH groups at C3 alternate two right/two left (2R/2L), the –OH groups at C4 alternate 4R/4L, and the –OH groups at C5 are to the right in all eight (8R). The Fischer projection of a monosaccharide is drawn vertically, with the carbonyl group at or near the top and the –CH 2 OH group at the bottom.
