Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The conformational formulas of the given compounds are to be represented.

Concept Introduction:

▸ Conformation of a molecule is the spatial arrangement of its atoms through free rotation around the single bonds. The single spatial arrangement obtained, as a result of such rotation is referred to as conformational form or structure of that molecule.

▸ The conformations are interconvertible structures. The conformational structures of a compound may be represented as open chain, sawhorse, chair form or Newman’s projections.
