Chitin Molecule Model Kit

The glucose model kit is intended mainly for showing the various important sugars. However, chitin is composed of glucosamine which is only slightly different from cellulose. It is as important to insects as cellulose is to plants for maintaining structural integrity.

The nitrogen atomns shown in the image below have a planar geometry although some texts/on-line sources indicate a tetrahedral geometry. Use the planar carbons, nitrogens & single oxygens along with the double bond "X" pegs to build the amine group. The double bond itself uses a 20mm "wobbly"™ and 20mm thin bond.

Models You Can Make with the Glucose Kit
α, β Glucose	Glucose, Galactose	Glucose, Fructose
Lactose	Sucrose	Maltose
Cellulose	Starch	Chitin
