 BookRags: Walter Haworth Biography
Walter Haworth's earliest research was influenced by his contact with William Perkin at the University of Manchester and involved a study of terpenes, a class of hydrocarbons often found in plants.
Haworth developed a method by which he could determine the sequence of linkages within a molecule and was able to elucidate the detailed formulas for many compounds.
Haworth was married to Violet Chilton Dobbie in 1922.

A Fisher projection is basically the projection of a tetrahedral carbon atom onto a flat surface.
In Fisher projections the molecule is called alpha if the newly formed hydroxyl group on the carbonyl group is on the same side as the lowest chiral atom.
Haworth projections are mostly used for depicting pyranose and furanose rings (six or five atom rings with an oxygen in it).

 Glucose animations with Jmol
The relation between the Fischer projection of D-glucose and the 3-dimensional structure of the beta-D-glucopyranose ring is shown here in the form of a 40 structure animation.
The starting structure resembles the Fischer projection: the carbon chain is vertical, the aldehyde at the top, and the horizontal bonds pointing towards you (in agreement with the definition of the Fischer projection).
Therefore Haworth introduced a projection in which the ring is made flat, and the substituents are pointing either up or down.

The convention is that the two vertical bonds in the projection are pointing behind the plane of projection (plane of paper sheet), and the two horizontal bonds are pointing towards the viewer.
One of the remaining atoms is oriented behind the plane of projection (dashed bond), one towards the viewer (boldface bond).
This projection is difficult to use with acyclic molecules but is most popular for representation of cyclic molecules e.g.

In the Haworth projection the sugar ring is represented as a flat polygon, commonly a pentagon or a hexagon, instead of in proper geometrical conformation like a chair.
The advantages of the Haworth projection are that it is easy to draw, and it is very easy to see whether substituent groups on the ring are on the "top" or the "bottom" of the ring (cis or trans).
Both represent D-sugars since the methoxy group on the #5 C is pointing up in the Haworth projection (in L isomers it would point down).

For instance, the Fischer projection may be given in the passage, but the question may center around the structure in a Haworth projection.
The chirality of the penultimate carbon (carbon five in aldohexoses) is constant according to the D or L status, and the backbone carbons will go from left in the Fischer projection to up in the Haworth projection.
It is rather simple to solve for the chirality of selected carbons in both the Fischer and Haworth projections, after you have done this once.

The Fischer projection is not intended to be a true representation of conformation.
In the Fischer projection of an a-anomer, the exocyclic oxygen atom at the anomeric centre formally is in the cis-configuration to the oxygen attached to the anomeric center; for the b-anomer this oxygen atom is formally trans.
