Chapter 3: Q48P (page 190)

Question: Convert each Newman projection to the equivalent line-angle formula, and assign the IUPAC name.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer

Step by step solution

01

IUPAC nomenclature

A systematic way of naming organic compounds based on their chemical composition and structure is given by IUPAC nomenclature.

02

Newman projection

Newman projections are often used in drawing conformations. In Newman’s projection, one views the bond end along the axis of connection.The front carbon is represented by the intersection of bonds, while the rear carbon appears as a circle.

03

 Step 3: Converting Newman projection into a line-angle formula and assigning their IUPAC names

In order to show the connectivity of carbon atoms more precisely, Newman projections are converted into a bond-line formula.

Construct a graph, similar to Figure 3-11, of the torsional energy of 3-methylpentanealong theC2−C3.PlaceC2in front, represented by three bonds coming together in a Y shape, andC3in back, represented by a circle with three bonds pointing out from it. Define the dihedral angle as the angle between the methyl group on the front carbon and ethyl group on the back carbon. Begin your graph at 00thedihedral angle and begin to turn the front carbon. Show the Newman projection and the approximate energy at each600of rotation. Indicate which conformations are the most stable (lowest energy) and the least stable (highest energy).
