Chapter 3, Problem 71P
- a. Draw a potential energy diagram for rotation about the Ci C bond of 1,2-dichloroethane through 360, starting with the least stable conformer. The anti conformer is 1.2 kcal/mol more stable than a gauche conformer. A gauche conformer has two energy barriers, 5.2 kcal/mol and 9.3 kcal/mole.
- b. Draw the conformer that would be present in greatest concentration.
- c. How much more stable is the most stable staggered conformer than the most stable eclipsed conformer?
- d. How much more stable is the most stable staggered conformer than the least stable eclipsed conformer?
