Chapter 2, Problem 2.34AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The skeletal structure of the given compound is to drawn and the name of the compound is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The skeletal structure of a compound is represented by the line having several vertices. These vertices in the skeletal structure represent the carbon atoms presents in the structure. In the skeletal structure, the valence of the carbon is satisfied by the hydrogen’s which are not shown. If any atom other than carbon and hydrogen is present in the molecule then it is denoted by its symbol in the skeletal structure.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The Newman projection of the given compound viewed from the direction of carbon-3 is to drawn and the name of the compound is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Newmann projection is a way of representing the groups attached to carbon atoms in the C-C bonds. This is used to determine the interaction between the groups attached to carbon atoms and the dihedral angle. The front carbon atom in the Newmann projection is represented by the dot and the end on carbon atom is represented by the circle. The groups attached to the carbon atoms are then drawn by the line.

Draw Newman projections for the anti, eclipsed, gauche and fully eclipsed conformations of Butane. Indicate their relative stabilities and the reasons for your ranking-need to discuss the stresses involved in each case.     Using suitable specific conformers of specific structures as examples, explain the difference between (a) angle strain  (b) torsional strain and (c) steric strain. Need to draw the confomers and structures         4)   Draw the most stable conformers using chair  structures of the following: (c) cis-1,2-Dibromocyclohexane     (d) trans-1,2-Dibromocyclohexane (e) cis-Decalin     (f) trans-Decalin .   Draw the most stable conformers of trans-1-Bromo-4-methylcyclohexane and cis-1-Bromo-4-methylcyclohexane. Which is more stable?  Explain the reason for your answer. Need to include a discussion of 1,3-Diaxial interaction
4. (a) Draw a skeletal (line-bond) structure for 3,4-dimethylhexane. (b) Draw a sawhorse representation of any staggered conformation of this molecule looking down the carbon-3 to carbon-4 bond. (c) Draw a Newman projection looking down the carbon-3 to carbon-4 bond of the same conformation that you drew as a sawhorse representation.
Consider 1-bromopropane,  CH3CH2CH2Br. (a) Draw a Newman projection for the conformation in which ­ CH3 and -Br are anti (dihedral angle 180°). (b) Draw Newman projections for the conformations in which - CH3 and -Br are gauche (dihedral angles 60° and 300°). (c) Which of these is the lowest energy conformation? (d) Which of these conformations, if any, are related by reflection?
