Sorry, I just figured out my prof either spelled it wrong or I copied it down wrong.
My tutors are too busy to tutor me this week!
I went to psychcentral's chat and chat with someone who said he knows organic chem, but all he did was type in some chemistry related things.
He said something about pesticides and C+. I don't know what he's talking about.
OK, I looked in the index of my Claydon text. I *think* I've figured it out.
OK, so in the Zimmerman-Traxler transitional state, if the substituent that determines chirality is in the pseudoaxial position, it turns into a syn aldo and if it's in the pseudoequatorial position, it turns into an anti aldo??
