The heats of combustion of the more and less stable stereoisomers of the 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-dimethylcyclohexanes are given here. The values are higher for the 1,2- dimethylcyclohexanes than for the 1,3- and 1,4-isomers. Suggest an explanation.
Dimethylcyclohexane Heats of combustion(kJ/mol): | 1,2 | 1,3 | 1,4 |
More stable stereoisomer | 5217 | 5212 | 5212 |
Less stable stereoisomer | 5223 | 5219 | 5219 |
