Concept explainers
(a)
To draw: The Newman projection for the given structure.
Interpretation The Newman projection for the given structure is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Newman projection determines the stereochemistry of
(b)
To determine: The Newman projection for the given structure.
Interpretation: The Newman projection for the given structure is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Newman projection determines the stereochemistry of alkane. In this representation a circle is drawn that represents the back carbon atom while the dot represents the front carbon atom. The carbon atom that is present at the front is known as proximal carbon atom while the carbon atom that is present at the back is known as distal carbon atom.
