Question

Which of the following molecules are chiral?

A planar drawing of a substituted cyclohexane ring represents the average positions of the ring atoms in the rapid chair-chair interconversions. It is therefore acceptable to treat a cyclohexane ring as planar for the purpose of determining chirality. With this in mind, select which of the following molecules are chiral: cis-i ,3-dimethylcydohexane trans-i ,3-dimethylcyclohexane cis- 1 -isopropyl-3-rnethylcyclohexane trans-i -isopropyl-3-methylcyclohexane cis-1 .4-dimethylcydohexane trans-i ,4-dimethylcydohexane cis-i -isopropyl-4-methylcyclohexane trans-i-isopropyl-4-methylcyclohexane

Explanation / Answer

trans-1,3-dimethhylcyclohexane
cis-1-isopropyl-3-methylcyclohexane
trans-1-isopropyl-3-methylcyclohexane
