H,C OH C2 HO `CH3 Which of the following is the most stable staggered conformer? Me OH Me. OH Me Он Me OH Me Он но H. Me H H Conformer A Conformer B Conformer C Conformer B because the anti OH groups avoid hydrogen bonding, which is a destabilizing effect. Conformer A because there are only two gauche interactions, and hydrogen bonding between the two OH groups is a stabilizing effect. Conformer C because there is no steric strain for Me-OH gauche interactions and hydrogen bonding between the two OH groups is a stabilizing effect. Conformer B because the large OH groups are anti to each other.
