Glycosidic bond formation is a condensation reaction that links two monosaccharide units through an oxygen atom. It occurs when the hydroxyl group (–OH) of the anomeric carbon of one sugar reacts with a hydroxyl group of another sugar. During this reaction, a molecule of water is eliminated, and a covalent bond known as a glycosidic bond is formed. The bond is described based on the carbons involved and the configuration of the anomeric carbon, such as α(1→4), β(1→4), or α(1→2). For example, in maltose, two glucose molecules are joined by an
