Hello everybody

I have to draw the newman-projection of the molecule seen in the picture but I have no idea.

Hope you can help me. Thank you

Alex

Yikes!

 

...a quick [image] search of "newman-projection" reveals images such as:

 

 

 

and

...cyclohexane:

 

...from many ".edu" websites.

 

...so it seems there is a lot to learn....

Oh yea, I've already learned it, but this task is kinda confusing...help meeee

Sorry, but I see a big difference between, "I have no idea" and "I've already learned it," so I didn't think to ask if you already have attempted a solution.

 

If you have some 'best guesses' that you could post, I'd like to see if I can tell what is correct or confusing.

As a hint, the arrow in the question is telling you which bond to look down to draw your projection.

Another hint; on some of the more difficult Newman projections, I work from the atom before to see if I can make any discoveries that would help me further down the molecule. In this case, you would try looking at the carbon that has the substituent off benzene.

 

Also, you could try looking down the Nitrogen and see if that would help.

I think be wrong in this ask!!!
