Chapter 4.14, Problem 37CC
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Haworth projections of cis and trans-1-4-dimethylcyclohexane are drawn and its stability should be comparatively explained.

Concept Introduction:

Haworth projection:

  • The representation of cyclic chemical compounds by normal ring structure and the substituents can either pointing up or down on this ring is called Haworth projection.

Conformational isomers:

  • The two or more compounds have same molecular formula and different structural formulas from the result of C-C single bond rotations are called conformational isomers.
  • The atom or group is occupy at similar to a vertical axis passing through the chair conformation of Cyclohexane ring is called axial position.
  • The atom or group is occupy at similar to horizontal axis passing through the chair conformation of ring is called equatorial position.
  • The substituents are occupy in equatorial position is more stable than axial because of the 1,3-diaxial interactions are less in equatorial position.
