Document Summary
Isomers same formula, different arrangement of atom. Constitutional isomers same formula, different connectivity (order of attachment) Stereo isomerism same formula, same connectivity, different three dimensional geometry. Newman bond) from the side (by looking along the c-c projection a way to view a molecule dimensional arrangement of atoms in a. Conformation any three molecule that results from rotation about a single bond. Conformation atoms on one carbon are as far as possible from the atoms on the adjacent carbon. Conformation - atoms on one carbon are as close as possible from the atoms on the adjacent carbon. Torsional strain force that oppose eclipse conformation due to electrons in the bond (not the electron cloud, nothing to do with atoms) The strain appear when atoms are force abnormally close to one another, due to the repulsion between the electron clouds of the atom (in addition of torsional strain) Strain caused by compression or expansion of bond angles.
