(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The relative priorities for the given set of substituents have to be assigned.

Concept introduction:

E-Z designators are used as like cis-trans terminology for non-similar groups attached alkenes.

In E-Z designations, the groups attached to vinylic positions are checked by their priority on the basis of higher atomic weight of connected atom, if it is same for the connected atom then consider the next atom of each group and so on.  In case of multiple bonds connected with same atoms, then the higher bonds having group has higher priority.

Q8 Conformational Analysis of Cycloalkanes In this question you will look at the conformations of the following molecule: CH3 C В F CH3 D -E A H3C F I II Energy Costs for Interactions in Alkane Conformers: Computed Energy Cost (kJ/mol)* 3.8 Interaction H+H eclipsed H+CH3 eclipsed CH3+CH3 eclipsed CH3+CH3 gauche H»CH(CH3)2 gauche H CH(CH:)2 eclipsed CH3+CH(CH3)2 gauche CH3+CH(CH3)2 eclipsed HeC(CH:)3 eclipsed CH3+C(CH3)3 gauche CH3+C(CH:)3 eclipsed H+I eclipsed I+CH3 gauche I+CH3 eclipsed "Values computed with Gaussian09 using B3LYP/6-31G(d) for structure optimization and B3LYP/6-311+G(2df,3p) for the conformation energy. The calculations were performed in the gas phase (no solvent). *This result for t-butyl is a bit peculiar given that the value is less than that for isopropyl, but there is an explanation that I can tell you about in office hours! 4.8 12.6 3.7 (0.0) 3.1 3.6 17.3 2.8 13.6 18.7 6.7 1.2 15.5 Steric Strain in Monosubstituted Cyclohexanes: 1,3-Diaxial strain Y (kJ/mol)…
