Overview of the cyclohexane conformations (bold black bonds) and their symmetries as described in the text: (a) chair conformation (D3d), with four atoms in the plane and atom C6 above and C1 below (6C1); (b) envelope conformation (Cs) with atoms C1–C5 in the plane and C9 below (E9); (c) half-chair conformation (C2) with atoms C1–C4 in the plane and atom C5 above and C9 below (looking towards the twofold axis in the middle of bond C2—C3 and bond C5—C9). |
