Concept explainers
a.
To determine:
The similarity in the conformational isomers.
Introduction:
Conformational isomers are the isomers that can be interconverted when there is a rotation in the single bonds. These isomers are a form of stereoisomers having the same connectivity but differ in the spatial arrangements. For example, gauche and eclipsed are the conformational isomers of one another.
b.
To determine:
The difference in the conformational isomers.
Introduction:
Conformational isomers are the isomers that can be interconverted when there is a rotation in the single bonds. These isomers are a form of stereoisomers having the same connectivity but differ in the spatial arrangements. For example, gauche and eclipsed are the conformational isomers of one another.
