Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among cis- and trans-tert-butyl-2-methylcyclohexanones, which isomer is more stable is to be stated and explained.

Concept introduction:

Two substituents with 1,3-cis relationship in cyclohexenones will have a diequatorial orientation while two substituents with 1,3-trans relationship in cyclohexenones will have an axial-equatorial orientation. In substituted cyclohexenones the conformation which contain bulky substituents at equatorial position are more stable.

To state and explain:

Among cis- and trans-tert-butyl-2-methylcyclohexanones, which isomer is more stable?
