Conformation example sentences

Any other intermediate conformation is called a skew conformation.Eclipsed and the staggered conformations can be represented by Sawhorse and Newman projections.My mental eye, rendered more acute by repeated visions of this kind, could now distinguish larger structures of manifold conformations; long rows,sometimes more closely fitted together; all twisting and turning in snake like motion.It may be remembered that in all the conformations, the bond angles and the bond lengths remain the same.The break down of the gradient provides enough energy to cause a conformational change in the F1 particle of the ATPase, which makes the enzyme synthesise several molecules of energy-packed ATP.Alkanes can thus have infinite number of conformations by rotation around C-C single bonds.Out of staggered and the eclipsed conformations of ethane, staggered conformation is more stable as hydrogen atoms are farthest apart.Thus there are infinite number of conformations of ethane.Such spatial arrangements of atoms which can be converted into one another by rotation around a C-C single bond are called conformations or conformers or rotamers.These are called conformational isomers (conformers).It has not been possible to separate and isolate different conformational isomers of ethane.Sawhorse projections of eclipsed and staggered conformations of ethane are depicted.Alkanes show conformational isomerism due to free rotation along the C–C sigma bonds.As already mentioned, the repulsive interaction between the electron clouds, which affects stability of a conformation, is called torsional strain.Of all the conformations of ethane, the staggered form has the least torsional strain and the eclipsed form, the maximum torsional strain.
