Cycloalkanes: Baeyer’s Strain Theory and Sachse-Mohr’s Theory

Cycloalkanes Cycloalkanes, the intriguing closed-ring structures found in organic chemistry, have fascinated scientists for decades. These compounds, composed entirely of carbon and hydrogen atoms, exhibit unique stability patterns that defy simple intuition. In this article, we delve into the theories that shed light on their relative stability. From Baeyer strain theory to the role of … Read more
