    Are you referring to this question?

    When the pentaacetate anomer is heated with ZnCl2 and acetic anhydride, it is converted into the other anomer. Explain why it occurs.

    If so, then the answer would be:

    Glucose Pentaacetate is prepared through the acetylation of glucose with acetic anhydride.

    Alpha-anomer is produced when acidic catalyst is present like zinc chloride. On the other hand, beta-anomer is formed when a basic catalyst is present, like sodium acetate.
