Using what you know about the conformational energetics of substituted cyclohexanes, predict which of the two isomers is more stable. Explain your reasoning.
Question: This is a Newman projection of a substituted cyclohexane.
(a) Draw the equivalent chair form
(b)Draw the equivalent structure using wedge and dash notation on a cyclohexane hexagon.
(c) Give the IUPAC name.

(a) Draw the two chair conformations of , and label all the positions as axial or equatorial.
(b) Label the higher-energy conformation and the lower-energy conformation.
(c) The energy difference in these two conformations has been measured to be aboutper mole. How much of this energy difference is due to the torsional energy of gauche relationships?
(d) How much energy is due to the additional steric strain of thediaxial interaction?
Question: The most stable form of 1,2,3,4,5,6-Cyclohexanehexolcontains a six-membered ring in the chair conformation with all the substituents equatorial. Draw this most stable conformation of cyclohexanehexol

Use a Newman projection about the indicated bond to draw the most stable conformer for each compound.
