Assume that the -CH2OH group is on a wedge bond. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. If a group is achiral, do not use wedged or hashed bonds on it. Do not include lone pairs in your answer. They will not be considered in the grading. Use "flat" representations of rings, not chairs, in your drawing. √n [ ?arrow_forward
