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.
Above: Newman projection; below: depiction of spatial orientation. In chemistry, rotamers are chemical species that differ from one another primarily due to rotations about one or more single bonds. Various arrangements of atoms in a molecule that differ by rotation about single bonds can also be referred to as different conformations ...
The gauche effect is very sensitive to solvent effects, due to the large difference in polarity between the two conformers.For example, 2,3-dinitro-2,3-dimethylbutane, which in the solid state exists only in the gauche conformation, prefers the gauche conformer in benzene solution by a ratio of 79:21, but in carbon tetrachloride, it prefers the anti conformer by a ratio of 58:42.

In mathematics, projections onto convex sets (POCS), sometimes known as the alternating projection method, is a method to find a point in the intersection of two closed convex sets. It is a very simple algorithm and has been rediscovered many times. [1] The simplest case, when the sets are affine spaces, was analyzed by John von Neumann.
Figure 5 shows 2-chloro-2,3-dimethylbutane in a sawhorse projection with chlorine and a hydrogen anti-periplanar to each other. Syn-periplanar or synperiplanar is similar to anti-periplanar. In the syn-periplanar conformer, the A and D are on the same side of the plane of the bond, with the dihedral angle of A−B and C−D between +30° and ...
Alternately, all four groups can be ranked by Cahn–Ingold–Prelog priority rules, with overall priority given to the two groups on the "front" atom of the Newman projection. The two configurations determined in this way are termed R a and S a, in analogy to the traditional R/S for a traditional tetrahedral stereocenter. [12]
Here's a look at Yahoo Sports' projections for both rounds of the 2024 NBA Draft. (Draft order is from Tankathon as of April 8.) (Taylor Wilhelm/Yahoo Sports Illustration)
Eclipsed conformation (image right in Newman projection) Staggered conformation. In chemistry an eclipsed conformation is a conformation in which two substituents X and Y on adjacent atoms A, B are in closest proximity, implying that the torsion angle X–A–B–Y is 0°. [1]
