Look at the diagram below and then please answer the following questions: 1) What is the name of the least stable conformation associated with the 6-atom ring? 2) Illustrate a chair-chair interconversion equilibrium for the compound. Show all ring substituents (including H atoms), and give axial or equatorial labels only for the non-H substituents. Which side of your equilibrium is favored and why? (CH2)3CH3 2 OH HOH2C OH 4
