The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are correct regarding the stability of conformations and dipole moments in certain compounds, we will analyze each statement step by step: ### Step 1: Analyze the First Statement **Statement:** Anti-conformation of NH2-CH2-CH2-NH2 is more stable than its gauche conformation. **Analysis:** - In the anti-conformation, the two NH2 groups are positioned opposite each other, minimizing steric hindrance. - In the gauche conformation, the NH2 groups are closer together, which can lead to increased steric strain. - However, due to hydrogen bonding between the NH2 groups in the gauche conformation, it is actually more stable than the anti-conformation. **Conclusion:** The first statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 2: Analyze the Second Statement **Statement:** Gauche conformation of the compound is more stable than its anti-conformation. **Analysis:** - As previously discussed, the gauche conformation allows for hydrogen bonding between the NH2 groups, which stabilizes the structure. - The anti-conformation lacks this stabilizing interaction, making it less stable. **Conclusion:** The second statement is **correct**. ### Step 3: Analyze the Third Statement **Statement:** On increasing the temperature, the dipole moment of the given compound increases. **Analysis:** - As temperature increases, the population of the more stable gauche conformation increases. - The gauche conformation has a higher dipole moment due to the arrangement of the electronegative nitrogen atoms. - Therefore, as the temperature increases, the overall dipole moment of the compound also increases. **Conclusion:** The third statement is **correct**. ### Step 4: Analyze the Fourth Statement **Statement:** In case of 1,4-dihydroxycyclohexane, chair conformation is more stable. **Analysis:** - In 1,4-dihydroxycyclohexane, both hydroxyl groups can adopt equatorial positions in the chair conformation, which minimizes steric hindrance. - However, in the case of the boat conformation, there can be significant steric strain due to the proximity of the hydroxyl groups. - The chair conformation is generally more stable than the boat conformation in cyclohexane derivatives. **Conclusion:** The fourth statement is **incorrect**. ### Final Summary of Statements - **Statement 1:** Incorrect - **Statement 2:** Correct - **Statement 3:** Correct - **Statement 4:** Incorrect Thus, the correct answer is that statements 1 and 4 are incorrect.
