Conformational Isomers
Isomers having the same connectivity sequence and can
be interconverted by rotation around one or more single
bonds.

Torsional strain
Eclipsed interaction strain
Strain that arises when non-bonded atoms separated by
three bonds are forced from a staggered conformation to
an eclipsed conformation.

Angle strain
The strain due to expansion or compression of bond
angles

Steric strain
the strain due to repulsive interactions when atoms
approach

Geometric isomers
Is a kind of stereoisomerism wherein two or more
compounds have the same molecular formula but have
different arrangement of the atoms in space.

Draw the structures of the


following molecules:
1. trans-1-Bromo-3-methylcyclohexane
2. trans-1-tert-Butyl-2-ethylcyclohexane
3. Cis-1,2-Dimethylcyclobutane
