Answer:
Explanation has been given below
Explanation:
- In diaxial conformation of cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane, 4 gauche-butane interactions along with syn-diaxial interaction are present. Hence it readily gets converted to diequitorial conformation where no such gauche-butane interaction is present
- In two possible conformations of trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane, 2 gauche-butane interactions are present in each of them.
- Hence cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane exists almost exclusively in diequitorial form. But trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane has no such option.
- Trans-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane experiences gauche butane interaction in each of the two conformations.
- Therefore cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane is more stable than trans conformation
