Chapter 4.6, Problem 7LTS

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Newman projection of the given compound should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Newman projection:

• The three-dimensional shape of the chemical compounds are varying by rotation of C-C single bonds, from the result more shapes are obtained. The obtained shapes of the single compounds are called conformations.
• The two or more compounds have same molecular formula and different structural formulas are called conformational isomers.
• The conformational isomers are representing by the Newman projection drawing.
• Newman projection representing by front carbon atom connected to 3 groups then the 3 groups connected circle is a back carbon atom.

To draw: the Newman projection of the given compound.
