Concept introduction:
The double bonded carbon will have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two different atoms or groups attached to it. The substituent attached to the double bond determines the configurations of the molecule. If the two groups are attached to the opposite side of the double bond, it is known as trans configuration. If the two groups are attached to the same side of the double bond, it is known as cis configuration.

In each pair of compounds, which compound has a higher boiling point? Explain your reasoning. (a) 2,2,5-trimethylhexane or nonane
It is easy to imagine a cyclohexane as a flat hexagon and a lot of the time we draw it
that way. Looking at 1,3,5-triethylcyclohexane we cannot tell the stability of the
molecule from looking at the flat 2D drawing. Explain why we need to look at the 3D
configuration and what conformation (axial,equatorial) would each of the three ethyl
groups be in for the most stable configuration.
Explain why 2,2,3,3-tetramethylbutane has the highest melting point compare to octane and isooctane.

Explain why or why not. b) What is the preferred conformation called?arrow_forwardInterconversion of the staggered and eclipsed conformations of alkanes requires rotation around a -C bond such as the one depicted below (see arrow). Using your knowledge of bonding, explain why these rotations do not significantly affect the energy (strength) of these bonds. You may find it helpful to describe the type of bond being rotated.arrow_forwardThe energy difference between a tert-butyl group going from equatorial to axial in a cyclohexane is 18.3 kJ/mol. When two of the carbon atoms are replaced with oxygen atoms (molecule B) the energy difference between the two chair conformations drops to 5.9 kJ/mol. Explain this difference. (Hint: Consider what makes putting groups axial unfavorable).arrow_forward
- This is done by removing an unshared pair from each of two adjacent atoms and adding one electron pair as a second bond between the atoms. Each such operation reduces the number of electrons in the trial structure by two. Removing the unshared pairs of electrons on the carbon atoms and adding a second carbon–carbon bond gives a structure in which there are four electrons involved in a double bond between the carbon atoms. The trial structure now contains electrons ____ and is correct.arrow_forwardWhich of these three compounds Alkane , Alkene and Aromatics has an exothermic reaction with concentrated sulfuric acid?
