  2. Carbohydrate conformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_conformation

    The chair conformation of six-membered rings have a dihedral angle of 60° between adjacent substituents thus usually making it the most stable conformer. Since there are two possible chair conformation steric and stereoelectronic effects such as the anomeric effect, 1,3-diaxial interactions, dipoles and intramolecular hydrogen bonding must be taken into consideration when looking at relative ...

  3. Haworth projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haworth_projection

    In chemistry, a Haworth projection is a common way of writing a structural formula to represent the cyclic structure of monosaccharides with a simple three-dimensional perspective. Haworth projection approximate the shapes of the actual molecules better for furanoses —which are in reality nearly planar—than for pyranoses that exist in ...

  4. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are possibly arranged in the real three-dimensional space.

  5. Newman projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newman_projection

    A Newman projection is a drawing that helps visualize the 3-dimensional structure of a molecule. [1] This projection most commonly sights down a carbon-carbon bond, making it a very useful way to visualize the stereochemistry of alkanes.

  6. Space-filling model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-filling_model

    A space-filling model of n-octane, the straight chain (normal) hydrocarbon composed of 8 carbons and 18 hydrogens, formulae: CH 3 CH 2 (CH 2) 4 CH 2 CH 3 or C 8 H 18.Note, the representative shown is of a single conformational "pose" of a population of molecules, which, because of low Gibbs energy barriers to rotation about its carbon-carbon bonds (giving the carbon "chain" great flexibility ...

  7. Rotamers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_conformation

    The gauche conformation on the right is a conformer, while the eclipsed conformation on the left is a transition state between conformers. Above: Newman projection; below: depiction of spatial orientation. In chemistry, rotamers are chemical species that differ according to rotations about a single bonds.

    In Klein’s case, a Postal Service spokeswoman said, the problem is the road. Hillman Ridge is paved but narrows to a width slightly larger than a pickup truck as it approaches Klein’s property.

  9. Fischer projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer_projection

    In chemistry, the Fischer projection, devised by Emil Fischer in 1891, is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional organic molecule by projection. Fischer projections were originally proposed for the depiction of carbohydrates and used by chemists, particularly in organic chemistry and biochemistry. The use of Fischer projections ...
