WEBFeb 28, 2020 · In this article: introducing conformational isomers, staggered and eclipsed conformations, the Newman projection, the dihedral angle (torsion angle), and the rotational barrier to ethane (torsional strain)!
Conformational Analysis — Organic Chemistry Tutor
WEBEthane is one of the simplest hydrocarbons, yet it offers an intriguing look into the concept of molecular conformations. Let’s explore both its eclipsed and staggered conformations. We will also consider the energy differences between these conformations.

WEBFeb 2, 1998 · Ethane (H3C–CH3) and Substituted Ethane The ethane molecule, C2H6, can exist in both the staggered and eclipsed conformations where the staggered conformation is slightly more stable. The differences in these two conformations for ethane can easily be seen by viewing them both on …
Organic Chemistry: Conformations Conformations of Ethane
WEBWhile there are an infinite number of conformations about any sigma bond, in ethane two particular conformers are noteworthy and have special names. In the eclipsed conformation, the C-H bonds on the front and back carbons are aligned with each other with dihedral angles of 0 degrees.
Conformations of ethane - UCSC
WEBConformations of ethane. Experiments show that there is a 12 kJ/mol (2.9 kcal/mol) barrier to rotation in ethane. The most stable (low energy) conformation is the one in which all six C–H bonds are as far away from each other as possible (staggered when viewed end-on in a Newman projection).
