Chapter 3: Q. 3-3-16 P-b (page 85)

Sight along the C2-C1 bond of 2-methylpropane (isobutane).

(b) Draw a Newman projection of the least stable conformation.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(b)

Step by step solution

01

Conformers

The different categories of conformers are the eclipsed and staggered conformers.The eclipsed conformer is an unstable conformer as the bulky groups are situated nearby and experience more repulsion.

02

Newman projection of the least stable conformer

(b)The least stable conformer is the molecule having maximum repulsion between the atoms. The least stable conformer of 2-methylpropane can be given as:

Newman projection of the least stable conformer
