  2. Cyclohexane conformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane_conformation

    This axial substituent is in the eclipsed position with the axial substituents on the 3-carbons relative to itself (there will be two such carbons and thus two 1,3 diaxial interactions). This eclipsed position increases the steric strain on the cyclohexane conformation and the confirmation will shift towards a more energetically favorable ...

  3. A value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_value

    A-values are numerical values used in the determination of the most stable orientation of atoms in a molecule (conformational analysis), as well as a general representation of steric bulk. A-values are derived from energy measurements of the different cyclohexane conformations of a monosubstituted cyclohexane chemical. [1]

  4. Ring flip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_flip

    The 1 H NMR spectrum of titanocene pentasulfide features two signals at room temperature, a consequence of its relative rigidity. Bicycloalkane with two "bridgehead carbons" Cyclohexane is a prototype for low-energy degenerate ring flipping. Two 1 H NMR signals should be observed in principle, corresponding to axial and equatorial protons ...

  5. Cyclohexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane

    Cyclohexane is a colourless, flammable liquid with a distinctive detergent-like odor, reminiscent of cleaning products (in which it is sometimes used). Cyclohexane is mainly used for the industrial production of adipic acid and caprolactam, which are precursors to nylon. [5] Cyclohexyl (C 6 H 11) is the alkyl substituent of cyclohexane and is ...

  6. Rotamer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotamer

    The repulsion between an axial t-butyl group and hydrogen atoms in the 1,3-diaxial position is so strong that the cyclohexane ring will revert to a twisted boat conformation. The strain in cyclic structures is usually characterized by deviations from ideal bond angles ( Baeyer strain ), ideal torsional angles ( Pitzer strain ) or transannular ...

  7. Cycloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloalkane

    In the most stable chair form of cyclohexane, axial hydrogens on adjacent carbon atoms are pointed in opposite directions, virtually eliminating eclipsing strain. In medium-sized rings (7 to 13 carbon atoms) conformations in which the angle strain is minimised create transannular strain or Pitzer strain.

  8. Cyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_compound

    none of the atoms are carbon (inorganic cyclic compounds), [2] or where; both carbon and non-carbon atoms are present (heterocyclic compounds with rings containing both carbon and non-carbon). Common atoms can (as a result of their valences) form varying numbers of bonds, and many

  9. Anomeric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomeric_effect

    The α- and β-anomers of D-glucopyranose.. In organic chemistry, the anomeric effect or Edward-Lemieux effect (after J. T. Edward and Raymond Lemieux) is a stereoelectronic effect that describes the tendency of heteroatomic substituents adjacent to a heteroatom within a cyclohexane ring to prefer the axial orientation instead of the less-hindered equatorial orientation that would be expected ...
