Q2.
Answer any TWO of the following parts:
(a) Draw the two main conformations that exist for cyclohexane. Explain clearly
why one conformer is more stable than the other.
Using cis-1-ethyl-3-methylcyclohexane, as an example, explain how ring
flipping occurs.
Draw both conformers of cis-1-ethyl-3-methylcyclohexane and explain clearly
which one predominates.
(b) What is polarimetry? The specific rotation of (R)-carvone is - 61°. A chemist
prepared a 750 mg mixture of (R)-carvone and its enantiomer in 10 ml of
ethanol and placed the solution in a 10 cm polarimeter cell. The observed
rotation was - 4.125°.
Calculate the specific rotation for the above mixture.
What is meant by enantiomeric excess? Then determine the %
enantiomeric excess (% ee) in the mixture.
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
What % of the mixture is (R)-carvone and (S)-carvone?
Create Newman projections depicting
conformations along the carbon-carbon bond
described above in the lowest energy staggered
conformation, gauche conformation, and highest
energy eclipsed conformation. Appropriately label
these conformations
Please draw each out separately and do not just
draw arrows on the molecule.

ОН
Draw the Newman projection so that it corresponds to the molecule and conformation shown when viewed down the red bond in the direction of the red arrow. Your projection should be oriented as shown by the arrow marked up. So the CH2SH group on the front carbon should be above the H and H3C groups, no matter which template you use
