Question

Cyclopropane is an interesting hydrocarbon. Instead of having
three carbons in a row, the three carbons form a ring, as
shown in this perspective drawing (see Figure 2.18 for a prior
example of this kind of drawing):Cyclopropane was at one time used as an anesthetic, but its
use was discontinued, in part because it is highly flammable.
(a) What is the empirical formula of cyclopropane? How
does it differ from that of propane? (b) The three carbon atoms
are necessarily in a plane. What do the different wedges
mean? (c) What change would you make to the structure
shown to illustrate chlorocyclopropane? Are there isomers of
chlorocyclopropane?
