Make a model of each compound, draw it in its most symmetric conformation, and determine
Chapter 0, Problem 5-14(choose chapter or problem)
Make a model of each compound, draw it in its most symmetric conformation, and determine whether it is capable of showing optical activity. (a) 1-bromo-1-chloroethane (b) 1-bromo-2-chloroethane (c) 1,2-dichloropropane (d) cis-1,3-dibromocyclohexane (e) trans-1,3-dibromocyclohexane (f) trans-1,4-dibromocyclohexane 2. Star each asymmetric carbon atom, label each as (R) or (S), and compare your result from part (1) with the prediction you would make based on the asymmetric carbons.
