(A)Menthol, used to flavor various foods and tobacco, is the most stable stereoisomer of 2-isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexanol. Draw its most stable conformation. Is the hydroxyl group cis or trans to the isopropyl group? To the methyl group?
(b) Neomenthol is a stereoisomer of menthol. That is, it has the same constitution but differs in the arrangement of its atoms in space. Neomenthol is the second most stable stereoisomer of 2-isopropyl-5methylcyclohexanol; it is less stable than menthol but more stable than any other stereoisomer. Write the structure of neomenthol in its most stable conformation.

trans isomers of 1,2-dimethylcyclohexane, 1,3-
dimethylcyclohexane, and 1,4-dimethylcyclohexane. (a
) Indicate by a label whether each methyl group is axial
or equatorial. (b) For which isomer(s) are the alternative
chair conformations of equal stability? (c) For which
isomer(s) is one chair conformation more stable than
the other?
