Concept introduction:
Conformers are molecules that differ only by a rotation of one part of the molecule about a single bond.
Conformation analysis is nothing but the study of energy changes that occur during the rotation about the
A Newman projection of a molecule is the representation of its three dimensional structure looking along the bond of interest. The atom at the front end, typically a carbon atom, is represented by a point. The bonds to the three groups attached to it converge on this point. The carbon atom at the back is represented by a circle, with the three bonds to its attached groups ending on the circle.
Depending on the relative positions of the groups on the front and the back carbon, the conformations are classified into two main types.
Eclipsed conformation is one in which the dihedral angle is
Depending on the presence and interactions between bulky groups, the staggered conformation is further divided into anti and gauche conformers. In the anti-conformation, the dihedral angle between bulky groups is

- Draw the structure for 2-bromo-2-chloro-3,4-dimethylhexane and state which if any carbons are chiral using the carbon number. Example: C1.arrow_forwardIf you rotate the hydrogen atoms to a different position in a a model of C2H6 by turning about the central C—C bond, do you get different structural (or constitutional) isomers of C2H5Cl?arrow_forwardBuild and draw the molecular models of n-butane and 1-butene to illustrate their conformations. Discuss the differences between these models.arrow_forward
- In an advanced analytical chemistry lab, a team analyzing a compound 'Q' known to be a structural isomer of octane (C8H18). To determine the specific structure of 'Q', a series of spectroscopic analyses are performed. The sequence of the analysis involves: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, which indicates the absence of functional groups like alcohols, ketones, and carboxylic acids. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, showing signals indicative of only methyl and methylene groups, with no evidence of methine (CH) or quaternary carbon environments. Mass spectrometry (MS), revealing a fragmentation pattern consistent with branched alkane structures. Based on this sequence of analyses, what is the most likely structure of compound 'Q'? Options: A. 2,2,4- Trimethylpentane B. n-Octane C. 2-Methylheptane D. 3-Ethylhexane Don't use chatgpt please provide valuable answerarrow_forward2,2,4-trimethylpentane is the name of the 100 octane rating in gasoline. Select this molecule and any isomer(s) that contain a five-carbon chain and three methyl substituents (branches).arrow_forwardDraw the structure of trans-1,4-dimethyl cyclohexane. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms.arrow_forward
- For the following, you must draw an appropriate structure that has the chemical formula C5H7O2Cl with the indicated functional group(s) and/or property. In each case, identify any other functional groups in the molecule you draw, that were not indicated in the question. You may use Lewis or bond- line structures to draw your molecules. You may not use the same structure to answer more than 1 question. a) An acyclic molecule that cannot form hydrogen bonds with itself b) A tertiary chloride c) A cyclic etherarrow_forwardDraw and name the four cycloalkanes of formula C6H12 that do have cis-trans isomers.arrow_forward(iii) In the presence of a suitable catalyst, 2-methylpropene forms a mixture of dimers. Two of these dimers react with hydrogen to form * 2,2,4-trimethylpentane. Draw the skeletal formula for 2,2,4-trimethylpentane. Use this to draw the skeletal structure of one of the dimers formed from 2-methylpropene. 2,2,4-trimethylpentane Dimerarrow_forward
- Perspective drawings of both geometric isomers of CICH=CHCl (1,2-dichloroethene) Make two models that have different spatial arrangement of the substitutions (the two Cl atoms) across the double bond. Draw the perspective formulae for the two isomers and label them with their correct designations. What type of isomerism do these represent?arrow_forwardA certain hydrocarbon has a molecular formula of C5H8. Which of the following is not a structural possibility for this hydrocarbon? (a) It is a cycloalkane. (b) It contains one ring and one double bond. (c) It contains two double bonds and no rings. (d) It is an alkyne.arrow_forwardDraw a structural formula for the one constitutional isomer of the unbranched alkane C7H16 in which the longest carbon chain has 4 atoms. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.arrow_forward
