trans - 1,2 - dimethylcyclobutane is more stable than cis - 1,2 -dimethylcyclobutane, but cis - 1,3 - dimethylcyclobutane is more stable than trans - 1,3 - dimethylcyclobutane. Use drawings to explain these observations.
Question: Which of the following cycloalkanes are capable of geometric (cis-trans) isomerism? Draw the cis and trans isomers
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Draw the structures of the following compounds.
(a) 4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)nonane
(b) 5-(1,2,2-trimethylpropyl)decane
(c) 3,3-diethyl-4-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)nonane
Question: All of the following names are incorrect or incomplete. In each case, draw the structure ( or a possible structure) and name it correctly
Using what you know about the conformational energetics of substituted cyclohexanes, predict which of the two isomers is more stable. Explain your reasoning.
