Question

Using Newman projections, draw all of the staggered and eclipsed conformations that result from the rotation around the indicated bond. Look down what is labeled as the C2- C3. Draw a rotational energy profile for this rotation and calculate the strain energy for the least stable and most stable conformations. Using these values, what is the barrier to rotation around the indicated bond?
