Chapter 4, Problem 58P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: To indicate if the molecule has axial or equatorial chlorine with one or two sp2 carbon.

Concept Introduction:The concept behind axial or equatorial position is mostly applied to the chair conformation of cyclohexane. As the 12 hydrogen are not equivalent structurally, those 6 hydrogens which are found at the periphery of the carbon ring is termed equatorial and the other 6 hydrogens which are oriented above and below the plane are termed as axial.
