In the Newman projection for 2,2-dimethylbutane In the Newman projection for 2,2-dimethylbutane X and Y can respectively be
XX and YY can respectively be

Options

  1. AH\mathrm{H} and H\mathrm{H}
  2. BH\mathrm{H} and C2H5\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5
  3. CC2H5\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 and H\mathrm{H}
  4. DCH3\mathrm{CH}_3 and CH3\mathrm{CH}_3

Correct answer

B. H\mathrm{H} and C2H5\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5

Step-by-step solution

In the Newman projection for 2,2-dimethylbutane X and Y can respectively be
Conformation projection along C1−C2C1\mathrm{C}_1-\mathrm{C}_2\mathrm{C}_1 contains all three Hs\mathrm{Hs} So, X=H\quad X=\mathrm{H}In the Newman projection for 2,2-dimethylbutane X and Y can respectively be
C2\mathrm{C}_2 contains two methyl and one ethyl group So, Y=C2H5\quad Y=\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_5 Conformational projection along C2−C3C2\mathrm{C}_{2}- \mathrm{C}_{3} \mathrm{C}_2 contains three methyl groups (C2\left(\mathrm{C}_2\right. form back carbon in the given structure) So, Y=CH3<imgsrc="/api/proxy−image?url=https\quad Y=\mathrm{CH}_3<img src="/api/proxy-image?url=https%3A%2F%2Ffirebasestorage.googleapis.com%2Fv0%2Fb%2Fquantrexacademy-app.firebasestorage.app%2Fo%2Fquestions%252Ffigs%252Fpyq%252Fjee_advanced%252F99XNPwbz6laYONQD43P2IwseZwQ1EWIPEfxCtXPMZA8.original.fullsize.png%3Falt%3Dmedia&clean=1&v=wm2" data-qx-orig-src="https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/quantrexacademy-app.firebasestorage.app/o/questions%2Ffigs%2Fpyq%2Fjee_advanced%2F99XNPwbz6laYONQD43P2IwseZwQ1EWIPEfxCtXPMZA8.original.fullsize.png?alt=media" data-qx-storage-src="https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/quantrexacademy-app.firebasestorage.app/o/questions%2Ffigs%2Fpyq%2Fjee_advanced%2F99XNPwbz6laYONQD43P2IwseZwQ1EWIPEfxCtXPMZA8.original.fullsize.png?alt=media"> \\ C3\mathrm{C}_3 contains two Hs and one methyl group (C3\left(\mathrm{C}_3\right. form front carbon in the given structure) So, X=CH3C3\quad X=\mathrm{CH}_3\mathrm{C}_3 contains two Hs and one methyl group (C3\left(\mathrm{C}_3\right. form front carbon in the given structure) So, X=CH3\quad X=\mathrm{CH}_3 Isomerism (Stereochemistry) Conceptual (Structural visualisation) III
