One example of a 1,3-diaxial interaction is when there are two axial methyl groups on the same side of a cyclohexane ring, called a syn pentane interaction. For cis-1,3-dimethylcyclohexane, the difference in energy between the two chair conformations is 5.3 kcal/mol. What is the energy value (in kcal/mol) of the syn pentane interaction? Show your work, i.e. how you arrived at your answer. You will need to draw both chair conformations of the molecule to properly answer the question. Chairs...
