(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.
(b)
Interpretation:
The Newman projection of the given compound viewed from the direction of

- Hello, I was reading an answer from the book Organic Chemistry by Brown et al. The question is 2.51 "Draw alternative chair conformations for each substituted cyclohexane and state which chair is more stable." There are then 4 cyclohexanes (labeled a-d). For the "a" cyclohexane, the substituents are arranged as a combination of axial and equatorial in both chair conformations. However, for the "b," "c," and "d," cyclohexanes one chair has only equatorial substituents, and the other chair has only axial substituents. Why is the "a" chair conformation different? https://www.bartleby.com/solution-answer/chapter-2-problem-251p-organic-chemistry-8th-edition/9781305580350/draw-alternative-chair-conformations-for-each-substituted-cyclohexane-and-state-which-chair-is-more/4532cd91-c341-11e9-8385-02ee952b546earrow_forward4 Draw the Newman projection of each of the following conformationa along the C-C bond and the corresponding energy diagram for these conformations.arrow_forwardBelow is the energy diagram of different conformations of cyclohexane.
