### Cyclohexane Conformers and Reaction Products#### Consider the following cyclohexane starting material:![Cyclohexane Structure](image-url)- **Me**: Methyl Group- **Et**: Ethyl Group- **Cl**: ChlorineThis structure is labeled as **A**.#### Questions:a) **Draw both conformers of starting material A and circle the more stable conformer.**- In this section, students are required to understand the concept of cyclohexane conformers. Cyclohexane can exist in two main chair conformations. The substituents (Me, Et, Cl) will occupy axial or equatorial positions, and students must determine which conformation minimizes steric hindrance to identify the more stable conformer.b) **Draw the products of each of the reactions below:**1. **Reaction 1** **Starting Material:** ![Cyclohexane A](image-url) React with: - **Room Temp** 2. **Reaction 2** **Starting Material:** ![Cyclohexane A](image-url) React with: - **Reflux** 3. **Reaction 3** **Starting Material:** ![Cyclohexane A](image-url) React with: - **SNa** - **Room Temp**4. **Reaction 4** **Starting Material:** ![Cyclohexane A](image-url) React with: - **NaNH₂** - **Reflux****Explanation of Graphs/Diagrams:**- **Cyclohexane Structure Diagram**: Shows the chair conformation of the cyclohexane ring, with substituents (Me, Et, Cl) attached. The diagram should help visualize spatial arrangements and steric interactions. - **Reaction Pathways**: Each reaction scheme should detail the conditions and reagents (e.g., room temperature, reflux conditions) and illustrate how these influence the hydration/dehydration, substitution, or elimination processes on the cyclohexane ring, leading to different products. Each student's task involves illustrating the products formed from the reactions of the cyclohexane starting material under the given conditions. They need to understand how various reagents and conditions (temperature, reflux) will affect the cyclohexane derivative's transformation.
