Why does two phenylhydrazine molecule react with glucose in osazone formation?
As according to modern mechanism it has first reacted with formyl then goes for tautomers and to form an intermediate..which further form iminoketone ,as phenylhydrazine is in excess then it again react with the c=o formed on C2 and then with carbon first and give osazone .  And as further reaction stops by H- bonding between H and Nitrogen of each phenyl hydrazine which forms chelation and makes it stable.
