(a)With HI/P: It undergoes reduction to form n-hexane while with sodium amalgam it forms s orbitol.

n-hexane


(b)  With H2O: It forms neutral solution

(c)  With Hydroxylamine (NH2OH)

(d)  With HCN: It forms addition product cyanohydrin

(e)  Oxidation: Glucose on oxidation with Br2 gives gluconic acid which on further oxidation with HNO3 gives saccaric acid

(f)   With Tollen reagent and Fehling solution. Glucose forms silver mirror and red ppt. of Cu2O respectively.

(g)  With acetic anhydride. In presence of pyridine glucose forms pentaacetate.


(h)   With conc. HCl acid: Glucose gives laevulinic acid
