The groups showing in straight upward and downward directions are axial and the groups bend slightly right or left are equatorial.

The axial and equatorial groups are represented in the chair conformation as A and E:

1. Start with a 7 carbon chain. Add 2 methyl groups at the 2nd and 4th carbon. Add an alcohol group at the 2nd carbon. Add an additional 4 carbon chain coming off the 6th carbon.
4. Start with NH3 and show step-by-step how the compound N-sec-butyl-N-isopropyl-3-pentanamine can be formed. Draw and name the reactants and products in each reaction (3 separate reactions.) 5. Salicylic acid (shown below) is a polyfunctional molecule (contains more than one functional group.) Circle and identify the functional groups on salicylic acid. Salicylic acid can react with ethanoic acid (acetic acid) to form aspirin. It can also react with ethanol to form ethyl salicylate, a compound with a minty smell used in perfume and artificial flavors. Draw out structures to illustrate each of these reactions. Discuss how these two reactions are similar and how they are different. HO, HO
I need help on letter 4E only. I drew the structural form already*
