Conformation: Trans-1,2 Disubstitution, Energy of the two Chair Cyclohexanes

Показать описание
Summary:
Trans 1,2-Disubstitution has either one gauche interaction and no 1,3 diaxial interactions, where both substituents are equitorial. Alternatively, with the other ring conformation, where both substituents are axial, there is overall higher energy due to there being no gauche interactions but four 1,3-diaxial interactions. Thus the diequitoral chair conformation is more abundant.

Key Words:
Trans, Trans 1,2-Disubstitution, Axial, Equitorial, Gauche Interaction, 1,3-Diaxial Interaction

The diaxial conformation of trans-1, 2-dimethyl cyclohexane would actually have 4 gauche interactions...
