hydroboration of 1-methylcyclopentene leads to trans-2-methylcyclopentanol; see attached file.
1. explain from the orientation of the reagents why only the trans-isomer is formed.
2. in actuality, two different trans-2-methylcyclopentanols are formed in equal amounts. draw the structures of these two trans-2-methylcyclopentanols and explain why they are different and how they are formed.

- Stability of cis and trans organic compounds. - trans-1,2- Dimethylcyclobutane is more stable than cis-1,2-dimethylcyclobutane, but cis-1,3-dimethylcyclobutane is more stable than trans-1,3-dimethylcyclobutane. Draw the sterochemical (3-D) st ...
- Consider the trans-to-cis isomerization of 1,2-dichloroethylene. If the Gibbs energy of formation is 27.34 and 22.11 kJ / mol for the trans and cis isomers, respectively, what is the percent of cis isomer present at equilibrium?
