  2. Cyclohexane conformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane_conformation

    Cyclohexane is considered nonpolar, meaning that there is no electronegative difference between its bonds and its overall structure is symmetrical. Due to this, when cyclohexane is immersed in a polar solvent, it will have less solvent distribution, which signifies a poor interaction between the solvent and solute.

    The chair and twist-boat are energy minima and are therefore conformers, while the half-chair and the boat are transition states and represent energy maxima. The idea that the chair conformation is the most stable structure for cyclohexane was first proposed as early as 1890 by Hermann Sachse, but only gained widespread acceptance much later.

  5. Ring flip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_flip

    The chair conformation minimizes both angle strain and torsional strain by having all carbon-carbon bonds at 110.9° and all hydrogens staggered from one another. [2] The conformational changes that occur in a cyclohexane ring flip take place over several stages. Structure D (10.8 kcal/mol) is the highest energy transition state of the process.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol

    Cyclohexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol is a family of chemical compounds with formula C 6 H 12 O 6, whose molecule consists of a ring of six carbon atoms, each bound to one hydrogen atom and one hydroxyl group (–OH). There are nine stereoisomers, that differ by the position of the hydroxyl groups relative to the mean plane of the ring.

  8. Cyclohexene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexene

    Cyclohexene is most stable in a half-chair conformation, [11] unlike the preference for a chair form of cyclohexane. One basis for the cyclohexane conformational preference for a chair is that it allows each bond of the ring to adopt a staggered conformation. For cyclohexene, however, the alkene is planar, equivalent to an eclipsed conformation ...

    They have been used as models for analyzing the effects of different geometric positions of the large atoms with dipolar bonds on the stability of the cyclohexane conformation. [1] The isomers are poisonous, pesticidal, and persistent organic pollutants, to varying degrees. Hexachlorocyclohexane was dimerized to produce mirex, a banned pesticide.
