The energy difference between a tert-butyl group going from equatorial to axial in a cyclohexane is 18.3 kJ/mol. When two of the carbon atoms are replaced with oxygen atoms (molecule B) the energy difference between the two chair conformations drops to 5.9 kJ/mol. Explain this difference. (Hint: Consider what makes putting groups axial unfavorable).
It is easy to imagine a cyclohexane as a flat hexagon and a lot of the time we draw it
that way. Looking at 1,3,5-triethylcyclohexane we cannot tell the stability of the
molecule from looking at the flat 2D drawing. Explain why we need to look at the 3D
configuration and what conformation (axial,equatorial) would each of the three ethyl
groups be in for the most stable configuration.

(a) cyclopropane (b) cyclobutane (c) cyclopentan (d) cyclohexanearrow_forwardI don't understand why the first one and second one are cis and trans respectively. Wouldn't the first one be trans-1,2-dimethylcyclobutane because the torsional strain wouldn't allow the carbons to be in the same conformation. Meaning one of the carbons would be up and then the next would be down and so on. Since both methyl groups are equatorial and the first and second carbons are arranged up and down, wouldn't it be trans. Same logic for the second molecule. Carbon 1, which is attached to the methyl is down, carbon 3 which is attached to the methyl should be down also because of torsional strain, and since both methyl are in axial (or equatorial?), it would be cis. Or is it based off of the way the carbons are positioned in the picture?arrow_forward

Which of those isomers do you think is the most stable? Explainarrow_forwardHello, I was reading an answer from the book Organic Chemistry by Brown et al. The question is 2.51 "Draw alternative chair conformations for each substituted cyclohexane and state which chair is more stable." There are then 4 cyclohexanes (labeled a-d). For the "a" cyclohexane, the substituents are arranged as a combination of axial and equatorial in both chair conformations. However, for the "b," "c," and "d," cyclohexanes one chair has only equatorial substituents, and the other chair has only axial substituents. Why is the "a" chair conformation different? https://www.bartleby.com/solution-answer/chapter-2-problem-251p-organic-chemistry-8th-edition/9781305580350/draw-alternative-chair-conformations-for-each-substituted-cyclohexane-and-state-which-chair-is-more/4532cd91-c341-11e9-8385-02ee952b546earrow_forward
