- Draw a structural formula and Draw the structure of a compound that is a stereoisomerarrow_forwardWrite TRUE if the BOLD word/phrase makes the statement correct. Otherwise, write the correct WORD/PHRASE that will make the statement true. If there are two bold words/phrases in a number, write your answer for EACH of the bold words/phrases. 1. The anti-staggered conformation of butane, in which the methyl groups have a dihedral angle of less than 180°, has the highest energy. 2. The formation of 2-methylpropene as side product in the synthesis of tert-butyl chloride is a nucleophilic substitution reaction. 3. The generation of tertiary carbocation is the rate-determining step in tert-butyl chloride synthesis.arrow_forwardA molecule with both of its terminal carbons bonded to each other and contains an O or N atom within its structure with no pi bonds is best described as A Saturated heterocyclic molecule B Unsaturated heterocyclic molecule Saturated carbocyclic molecule Unsaturated carbocyclic moleculearrow_forward
- For rotation about the C-a – C-b bond, using the following templates, draw the Newman Projection of the two staggered conformers that are different in energy. Fill each bond on Newman Projection with Hydrogen or Substituents. You may use Abbreviations such as Me for Methyl, Et for Ethyl, iPr for isopropyl. Circle the Newman projection of the most stable conformer.arrow_forwarda-Draw the chair structure of the compound. b-Draw the ring-flipped structure of the compound. c-ldentify which of these structures is the most stable or if both are equal in energy explaining the reasoning. a-Draw the chair structure of the compound. b-Draw the ring-flipped structure of the compound. c-Identify which of these structures is the most stable or if both are equal in energy explaining the reasoning.arrow_forwardStereoisomers share the same connectivity and differ only in the way their atoms are arranged in space. Draw the struct a compound that is a stereoisomer of trans-1,2-dibromocyclobutane. (Note that the question asks for a different stereoisomer of the named compound and not the named compound itself.) • Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.

- Draw all the possible conformations of trans- and cis-1,3-dimethylcyclobutane. Which of these conformations is the most stable conformation? Explain your answer. Discuss the type of strain(s) that affect the stability of these compounds.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statement is false about conjugated systems? A conjugated system is more stable than an unconjugated A system. The s-trans isomer is favored over the s-cis isomer. A conjugated system has C multiple resonance structures. A conjugated system can only D contain two alkenes.arrow_forwardDraw the Newman projection so that it corresponds to the molecule and conformation shown when viewed down the red bond in the direction of the red arrow. Your projection should be oriented as shown by the arrow marked up. So the CH2SH group on the front carbon should be above the H and H3C groups, no matter which template you usearrow_forward
- I have already drawn helicene as an example but I am stuck on thinking of two other compounds. I know that an asymmetrically substituted carbon atom has 4 different substituents attached to the carbon. But, I am confused about finding other structures that are still chiral but do not have an asymmetrically substituted carbon atom.arrow_forwarddraw and name two structures that match the description of a trans-dihalocyclopentanearrow_forward"Trans alkenes are more stable than cis alkenes because they have fewer steric interactions" What this statement says ?arrow_forward
