Half chair structures are destabilized by (a) Angle and Torsional strain.
Explanation:
- Full chair structures are chemical conformations of compounds where the cyclohexane structures are positioned in such a way that three carbon atoms are staggered upwards and other three are staggered downwards. These are highly stable and lack torsional strain.
- Whereas the half chair structures are twisted full-chair structures, having 5 carbon atoms on the same plane and the other one is on the opposite side, this creates high angular strain. The Carbon-Hydrogen bonds are fully eclipsed on the plane, thereby creating torsional strain.
- The carbon on the other plane prevents the carbon-hydrogen bonds from inverting.
- These are unstable confrontations which keep switching regularly.
- (A) angle and torsional strain are the factors which destabilize a half chair structure.
