I do have a video on conformation analysis, and I have a written tutorial on my website on this as well. It is a good idea though to make a video for the conformational analysis with the energy plots. I'll add it to my to-do list.
For the last one, can't we have the phenyl down instead of up for the front carbon and the methyl on the back carbon sticking out on the opposite direction
If I understand you correctly (I'm not 100% sure what exactly you're asking), it doesn't matter. You could turn the whole molecule 90° or 180° but it would still be, essentially, the same molecule but rotated in space clock/counter-clock wise.
Not quite. The fact that it's a ring prevents 360° rotation around the single bond, so the maximum you can go it's 60°-ish one way or the other direction and that's about all you can do for [smaller] cycles. If you have a huge cycle with 10 carbons or more, you can have free rotation and have all possible conformations.
@@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor Got it. Thank you for your response. I just found your videos recently and you have helped me already so far. Thank you for your effort and time you put in your videos.
Why are you drawing newman for those hidrogens? They aren't a chiral center. They have 2 equal groups (H and H) it doesn't achieve the conditions to be a chiral center (4 different groups):/
Do you only draw Newman projections for chiral atoms? Newman projection is an alternative molecular representation method, it has nothing to do with chirality. You can draw any molecule as a Newman projection.
@@tomokochii You have nothing to apologize for 🙂 You're learning and I'm asking leading questions to help you develop critical thinking that you need to master organic chemistry rather than merely giving you an answer.

your vid on how to draw Newman projections was the best I've found on the internet. I'm leaving a comment to prove I was here before you got famous!
Haha, thanks!
i’ve been struggling with newman projections, but you cleared a lot of my misunderstandings. the best explanation sooo thanks !!!
Awesome. I’m glad my videos helped you. Newman projections is definitely one of those topics that a lot of students struggle with.
You are saving my life with these videos!!
Thanks! I’m glad my videos help you 😀
Thanks alot, this vid and your other video on newman projections greatly helped me with the topic that I missed at school
Glad it was helpful!
Hello can you do a conformational analysis video, like new man projection with the chart/graph please and explain the degrees😃😃
I do have a video on conformation analysis, and I have a written tutorial on my website on this as well. It is a good idea though to make a video for the conformational analysis with the energy plots. I'll add it to my to-do list.
@@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor Have u made a video yet on the conformational analysis with energy plots?
How does this not have more likes???? This video made me hate Newman projections less for sure
Haha, thanks! I guess, it's just the matter of time 🤷♂️ It will eventually get more views 🤞
I would like to express my appreciation to you!
Aww! Thank you ☺️
You’re so great thank you ✨
You're so welcome!
Very helpful! Finally understanding them ) Thank you
Happy to hear that! Glad video helped you :)
Is it necessary to rotate.
Can u do a video of Newman projection with be and S or Z and E orientation ?
Not quite sure what exactly you mean... but I'm planning to make some more challenging examples video in the future.
@ I just do not know how to arrange the Z and E into Newman projections
For the last one, can't we have the phenyl down instead of up for the front carbon and the methyl on the back carbon sticking out on the opposite direction

Why did you rotate 180° for questions 1 and 2 but 60° for question 3?
Is it even possible to rotate it by more than 60° for a cycle? 😉
@@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor Oh that's because there are more than 3 in the back, got it!

@@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor i didn't know that sorry, i'm a a beginner in organic chem.
