Glycosidic bond formation is a condensation reaction that links two monosaccharide units through an oxygen bridge. During this process, the hydroxyl group attached to the anomeric carbon of one sugar reacts with a hydroxyl group of another sugar molecule. A molecule of water is eliminated, and a covalent bond known as a glycosidic bond is formed. The bond may be classified as α or β depending on the configuration of the anomeric carbon involved in the linkage. For example, in maltose the bond formed is an α(1→4) glycosidic bond between two glucose molecules,
