The ΔG° for the equilibrium in Fig. P7.67ais 4.73 kJ mol-1 (t.13 kcal mol-1. (The equilibrium favors conformation A.)
(a) Which behaves as if it is larger, methyl or phenyl (Ph)? iWhy is this reasonable?
(b) Use the ΔG° given above, along with any other appropriate data, to estimate the ΔG° for the two equilibria in Fig. P7.67b.
