Sucrose is a Disaccharide.
Disaccharides are sugars which are formed when two simple sugars combine to form a disaccharide.
Cyclic monosaccharides get reacted with alcohols to form acetyls and ketals and function very similarly to alcohols.
When these two monosaccharides are linked together by glyosidic linkage the resulting product is a disaccharide.
This linkage is known as glycosidic linkage and is an oxide linkage formed by the loss of a water molecule.
