Well that could be a better idea. :smile:


you wouldnt happen to know how 1,2-diaminocylohexane shows cis-trans isomerism would you? :confused:
or how i could draw it xD i thought cis trans had to have double bond

Basically this. The amine groups can be on the same side of the ring (cis) or on opposite sides (trans) when drawn in 3D. Similar to...
