(a)
Interpretation: In the given pair of species, the group that has higher priority in
Concept introduction: A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers.
The priorities of the atoms that are directly attached to the stereogenic center are assigned in the order of decreasing

Concept introduction: A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers.
The priorities of the atoms that are directly attached to the stereogenic center are assigned in the order of decreasing atomic number. An atom of higher atomic number gets higher priority.

Looking down at the C1:C2 bond draw the Newman projection with the lowest energy B. looking down at the C1:C2 bond draw the Newman projection highest energyarrow_forwardH3C. CH3 HO CH3 2-isopropyl-3-methylcyclohexanol There are four cis, trans isomers for 2-isopropyl-3-methylcyclohexanol, where the cis,trans designations of the substituents are made relative to the OH group: • up, up, up (cis.cis) • up, up, down (cis,trans) • up, down, down (trans,cis) up, down, up (trans,trans) Consider the most stable chair for each of these isomers, and then draw the most stable and least stable isomer based on a comparison of the best chair for each one. To simplify matters, consider only axial vs equatorial energies of the groups (i.e. do not worry about the interactions between the groups, which in reality is also important). Use the wedge hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • Use "flat" representations of rings, not chairs, in your drawing.
