Learning Objective: 4.12 Describe the possible positions of the substituent in monosubstituted cyclohexanes, what happens in a ring flip, and which conformation is favored

129) Which of the following is the highest energy chair conformation of the following cyclohexane?

An illustration depicts a cyclohexane ring in which C 1 is wedged bonded to a methyl whereas the C 2 and C 4 are each dashed bonded to a methyl group.

An illustration depicts five chair conformations of cyclohexane. The first structure depicts a chair conformation in which C 1 and C 3 are each axially bonded to a methyl group. The C 4 is equatorially bonded to a methyl group. The second structure depicts a chair conformation in which C 1, C 2, and C 4 are each equatorially bonded to a methyl group. The third structure depicts a chair conformation in which C 1, C 2, and C 4 are each axially bonded to a methyl group. The fourth structure depicts a chair conformation in which C 1, C 3, and C 5 are each equatorially bonded to a methyl group. The fifth structure depicts a chair conformation in which C 1, C 2, and C 4 are each equatorially bonded to a methyl group.

Learning Objective: 4.13 Discuss the three-dimensional orientation and relative energy levels of the substituents in disubstituted cyclohexanes

130) Identify the least stable conformation of trans-1,4-diethylcyclohexane.

An illustration depicts five chair conformations of a compound name trans-1,4-diethylcyclohexane. The first structure depicts a chair conformation in which an ethyl group at C 1 is at up position and an ethyl group at C 4 is at equatorial position. The second structure depicts a chair conformation in which an ethyl group at C 1 is at up position and an ethyl group at C 4 is at axial down position. The third structure depicts a chair conformation in which an ethyl group at C 1 is at equatorial position and an ethyl group at C 4 is also at equatorial position. The fourth structure depicts a chair conformation in which an ethyl group at bottom right carbon is at equatorial position and an ethyl group at top center carbon is at equatorial position. The fifth structure depicts a chair conformation in which an ethyl group at C 1 is at equatorial position and an ethyl group at C 4 is at axial position.
