Draw the two chair conformations of cis 1 chloro 2 methylcyclohexane
1 answer:
In chair conformations of cyclohexane, Cl group is on the first C and methyl group is on the second C. In the cis conformation both groups should be in the same orientation, either both side chains should be up and up or down and down. In this figure its up and up.
2 figures are drawn as when the chair conformation flips, the axial groups become equatorial and equatorial groups become axial. But they remain as up or down .
When A flips to B, Cl goes from axial to equatorial and CH3 goes from equatorial to axial but both remain up.
