Which isomer is more stable, cis-decalin or trans-decalin? Explain.
Draw two different chair conformations of cyclohexanol (hydroxycyclohexane),showing all hydrogen atoms. Identify each position as axial orequatorial.
Two conformations of cis-1,3-dimethylcyclobutane are shown. What is the difference between them, and which do you think is likely to be more stable?

In light of your answer to Problem 4-48, draw the two chair conformations of 1,1,3-trimethylcyclohexane and estimate the amount of strain energy in each. Which conformation is favored?
