Chapter 2, Problem 2.35AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The curve of potential energy versus dihedral angle for chloroethane showing energy barrier of 15.5kJmol1 is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Newmann projection is a way of representing the groups attached to carbon atoms in the C-C bonds. This is used to determine the interaction between the groups attached to carbon atoms and the dihedral angle. The front carbon atom in the Newmann projection is represented by the dot and the end on carbon atom is represented by the circle. The groups attached to the carbon atoms are then drawn by the line.

The energy of the conformers varies with change in their dihedral angle. The plot of this variation is known as potential energy curve.

As you can see from Table 11.4, each CH2 group added to the carbon chain of an alkane increases its boiling point. This increase is greater going from CH4 to C2H6 and from C2H6 to C3H8 than it is going from C8H18 to C9H20 or from C9H20 to C10H22. What do you think is the reason for this difference
Compounds Y and Z both have the formula C₂H18. Both Y and Z react with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form 2-methyloctane. The heat of hydrogenation of Y is less than that of Z. Y and Z each undergo hydroboration/oxidation to give a primary alcohol (OH attached to a primary carbon). What is the structure of Y? • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one. 1998) 0▾ + n [F ChemDoodle a
Glucose, C6H12O6, contains an aldehyde group but exist predominantly in the form of the cyclic hemiacetal show below.   A cyclic hemiacetal is formed when the —OH group of one carbon bonds to the carbonyl group of another carbon.  Identify which carbon provides the —OH group and which provides the —CHO?  Give a functional isomer of glucose and draw its structure.
