The conformations of (+)-epichlorohydrin (1), viewed along

Chapter 4, Problem 4.75

(choose chapter or problem)

The conformations of (+)-epichlorohydrin (1), viewed along the Ca!Cb bond, can be analyzed in exactly the same manner as the acyclic alkanes discussed in Chapter 4 (J. Phys. Chem. A 2000, 104, 61896196). (a) Draw all staggered conformations for 1 viewed along this bond. (b) Identify the least stable staggered conformation for 1. Challenge 191 (c) The most stable conformation of 1,2-dichloropropane exhibits a methyl group that is anti to a chlorine atom. Using this information, identify the most stable conformation of 1 and justify your choice. Cb Ca O CH2 H Cl H H 1
