Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The axial and equatorial chair conformation of Bromocyclohexane should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Conformational isomers:

  • The two or more compounds have same molecular formula and different structural formulas are called conformational isomers.
  • The cyclohexanes have a chair and boat conformations.
  • The boat conformation of cyclohexane is more stable than boat form.
  • The boat conformation of cyclohexane has two positions of substituent's which are axial and equatorial.
  • The substituent occupy at similar to a vertical axis passing through the chair conformation of cyclohexane ring is called axial position.
  • The substituent occupy at similar to a horizontal axis passing through the chair conformation of cyclohexane ring is called equatorial position.

To draw the axial and equatorial chair conformations of Bromocyclohexane.
