Staggered vs Eclipsed Conformations of Ethane Conformational Isomers of Propane Newman Projection Practice On Cats, Part 3: Newman Projections Substituted Cyclohexanes – Axial vs Equatorial How To Draw A Bond RotationMany thanks to Jeremy Tran for drawing out the rotational energy profile of butane.Th...
So Newman projections are way of analyzing which sigma bond rotation will be the most stable. We have some rules about which rotations arebetterand which areworse! Thedihedral angle(theta), is equal to the angle between the two largest groups on either side of the projection. ...
Newman Projection: This is the projection usually used to draw alkanes. One carbon is kept downside, and the other is held up towards the viewer. The Y-shaped lines drawn in the compound show carbon atom's bonds. The lower side bonds show the bonds of the ...
