- Make a model of cyclohexane and draw its shape. Comment on its bond angles and how easily the model fitted together. Draw the boat and chair conformations of cyclohexane. Which arrangement do you think is the most stable?arrow_forward• Draw the chair conformations of the following compounds and determine which geometric isomer is more stable. Also show using Newman projection that one conformation is more stable than the other. a. cis-1-isopropyl-2-methylcyclohexane b. 1-methycyclohexanearrow_forwardWhich projection corresponds to 2,3,4-trimethylhexane? CH,CH3 H3C. CH(CH3)2 ČH3 b. CH3 H CH,CH3 H. ČH3 (CH3)2CH CH3 H3C, C. HY CH;CH(CH3)2 ĊH3 CH3 d. (CH3),CH, H Y CH,CH3 ČH3 a.arrow_forward
- Choose the statement that is incorrect about rings. اختر احدى الاجابات А. Planar cyclobutane is its most stable conformation. В. Planar cyclopentane would have small angle strain but severe torsional strain. C. The chair conformation of cyclohexane has no angle or torsional strain. D. Cyclopropane has the greatest angle strain. Е. The chair conformation has less torsional strain and fewer nonbonded interactions than the twist boat conformation.arrow_forwardConsider 1,2-dimethylcyclohexane.a. Draw structures for the cis and trans isomers using a hexagon for the six-membered ring.b. Draw the two possible chair conformations for the cis isomer. Which conformation, if either, is more stable?c. Draw the two possible chair conformations for the trans isomer. Which conformation, if either, is more stable?d. Which isomer, cis or trans, is more stable and why?arrow_forwardWhich of the following compounds can adopt a chair conformation in which there are no axial methyl groups? O a. cis-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane O b. trans-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane Oc. cis-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane O d. None of the above O e. cis-1,4-dimethylcyclohexanearrow_forward
- What is the preferred IUPAC name of the alkene shown in Figure below? CH3 CH3 CH3 `CH-CH3 A. 1-ethyl-2,4,5-trimethylcyclohexene B. 2-ethyl-1,4,5-trimethylcyclohexene C. 2-ethyl-1,4,5-trimethylcyclohex-1-ene D. 4-ethyl-1,2,5-trimethylcyclohexenearrow_forwardLook at a cyclohexane model:a. Mark the axial bonds. Hold carbon atoms 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 firmly and flip up carbon 4. What is the resulting conformation? b. Then holding carbons 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 firmly, flip down carbon What is now the resulting conformation?arrow_forwardGiven the cyclohexane chair conformation and four similar compounds, identify the relationship of each structure to the chair conformation. CH3 H3C, B H. How is Compound B related to the chair conformation? O It is a conformation isomer (conformer). H3C H3C H O It is a constitutional isomer. O It is not an isomer. H. O It is a stereoisomer.arrow_forward
- For the following structural formula, pick the structure that accurately represents its MOST STABLE conformation. CH3 H₂Cl... Br Br Br H₂C O D. O B. O C. O A. CH3 A CH3 B CH3 ... Br 주 Br H3C C CH3 H3C CH3 Darrow_forwardExplain the concept of Cyclohexane Conformations ?arrow_forwardAnalyze the two Newman projections and determine the relationship between the two. How would you describe the relation between conformations when they are maintained at a temperature too low to permit them to interconvert? CH3 CH3 Br. H H H H A. Identify the relationship. They are identical. They are structural isomers. They are stereoisomers. They are conformers. H H -I H Br H B. What is the relationship at low temperatures? They are identical. They are conformational diastereomers. They are structural isomers. They are conformational enantiomers.arrow_forward
