Chapter 7, Problem 7.3P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The relative amounts of axial conformations in samples of methylcyclohexane and tert-butylcyclohexane are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The conformation of cyclohexane is a type of 3D shape of cyclohexane molecule. There are total four types of significant conformations of cyclohexane exists which are chair conformation, half-chair conformation, boat conformation and twist-boat conformation. The two positions are present in all the four conformations; equatorial position and axial position.
