Hey! Generally, your reasoning is correct. However, problem 1 is a tough one in that the conformation with the two groups on the equatorial position is the more stable one, even though the largest group (tertbutyl) is the axial group. To see why, try drawing the Newman projection. In the Newman projection, you will see that when the tert-butyl is on the equatorial position, it "bumps" with the other two groups as well as the ring structure. However, when tert-butyl is on the axial position, it

quite a late reply but im sorry, I got a exam on Tuesday so this might be good practice to explain. his drawing was showing equatorial rather than axial because the "mountain peak" was going up, so it was axial the straight line would point up, his is equatorial down but he just drew it in a way that looks more axial than equatorial. which a professor might mark u down for of consider incorrect because it looks axial than eq.

only bumps with the methyl and ring structure. The chlorine group is further way. Because we have less steric hinderance, our chair conformation is more stable.

One thing I want to ask. Let's case 1 As you are seeing that all attached molecule are shown by dashed line.it means all are towards the observer or you can say in same side. Am I right? Then during representation in chair form either they will be oriented along equatorial or Axial depends on your frame of reference. But CH3 you are putting at Axial position while new-butane you are putting at Equatorial.why?
@exstirpo8120
6 жыл бұрын
Awanish Nishad if butyl was placed in the axial position it would be trans to the methyl group which is not the case. You can also say that the methyl is in the axial position facing up so the butyl group also has to face up which it does in the equatorial position while in the axial it's clearly facing down. Hope it helps

AK LECTURES It is part of it. I was using a method to determine in which orbital is, say the lone pair of a =N- atom, which turned out to yield wrong results. I was wondering if there is an efficient way to identify the orbital in which the lone pair reside.
@AKLECTURES
10 жыл бұрын
Oh I see what you're saying. No there isn't any quick way, but the electron configuration is part of it. First you determine what the electron configuration of the nitrogen atom is all by itself (1s2 2s2 2p3). Then you determine how many hybridized bonds it needs to form with other molecules. It needs to form three bonds to fulfill the octet rule, so three valence electrons are used to create three hybridized orbitals. That uses up 3 out of 5 valence electrons. The other two are the lone pair electrons in the 2p orbital.

Can you explain that, please? Thanks again!

for the third one wouldn't it be better to start from the equatorial pointing up which in your video you actually put the CH3 on it. If you start from the equotrial pointing up as the first point all the others will also be on equatorials and then it will make them more stable then putting them all on the axial? I am new at this so i would love some feedback! thanks
