1,2,3,4,5,6-Hexachlorocyclohexane shows cis,trans isomerism. At one time, a crude mixture of these isomers was sold as an insecticide. The insecticidal properties of the mixture arise from one isomer, known as lindane, which is cis-1,2,4,5-trans- 3,6-hexachlorocyclohexane.
Q.) Draw the alternative chair conformation of lindane and again label which chlorine atoms are axial and which are equatorial.
