Conformational Analysis of Cyclohexane and Alkene Synthesis

This lecture covers the conformational analysis of cyclohexane, including the chair, half-chair, and boat conformations, as well as the effects of heteroatoms on cyclohexane stability. It also delves into the stereoselective synthesis of alkenes through anti and syn eliminations, and the introduction of substituents in cyclohexane rings. The lecture further explores the stereoelectronic effects in orbital interactions and the synthesis and functionalization of alkenes, focusing on oxidation and reduction reactions.
