Okay, so let's talk about axial versus equatorial position.
00:04
So we have these three substituents, green, blue, and red.
00:07
So the green substituent is axial, while the red and blue substituents are equatorial.
00:13
Now, i've drawn in here at the blue, where the blue a substituent is.
00:20
I've drawn what would it look like if it was axial, right? and i can do the same over for the green.
00:26
If i was to draw an equatorial substitution, it would look something like that.
00:33
Okay, so now we need to know what is the relationship, cis or trans, for each of these substituents to each other.
00:43
So let's just erase these guys for now so we can do it easily.
00:49
So let's not worry about those.
00:51
So this red to the blue, red to blue.
00:57
Are they on the same side of the ring or on opposite sides of the ring? that's the question you want to ask yourself...
