Draw both possible conformations for the indicated cyclohexane :

(a) trans-1-chloro-2-methylcyclohexane (b) cis-1-chloro-2-methylcyclohexane

(c) trans-1-chloro-3-methylcyclohexane (d) cis-1-chloro-3-methylcyclohexane

(e) trans-1-chloro-4-methylcyclohexane (f) cis-1-chloro-4-methylcyclohexane

(g) a cyclohexane with 2 methyl groups, both axial

(h) a cyclohexane with 2 methyl groups, both equatorial

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

(a) trans-1,2 (e,e a,a) : structure structure

(b) cis-1,2 (e,a a,e) : structure structure
