About 1,4-di-t-butylcyclohexane
« on: July 15, 2009, 12:27:46 PM »
Why 1,4-di-t-butylcyclohexane prefer twist boat than chair conformation ?

i would suspect only syn 1,4-di-tbutylcyclohexane would be a twist boat, yes? anti should be fine as a chair.  try drawing them both out and see what happens
