Cyclohexanes 2: Chairs, Axial & Equatorial Substituents, and Ring-Flips
Channel: Oxford College Chemistry Courses: Scharf

This video describes the axial and equatorial positions of the substituents on the two most stable conformations of cyclohexanes -- both "chairs" -- and how those chairs interconvert by ring-flips. We also describe the relative stability of positions in axial vs. equatorial positions.
