3. A. Draw the Newman Projection of pentane looking down the C2-C3 bond in a staggered confirmation. B. Draw an energy diagram showing the conformational analysis using the Newman Projection above (showing a 360 degree total rotation, 60 degrees at a time). Hint – see Figure 4.6, 4.9 and 4.11 for examples. Estimate the potential energy of each 60 degree turn as you do not have data to calculate the values exactly. Label each Newman Projection as staggered/eclipsed or gauche/anti as appropriate.
