Question

Choose the letter that represents the statement that incorrectly describes the expected coupling of the proton at Cl in the cis and trans relative stereoisomers of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanol. In the cis-isomer the coupling constant (J) between the proton at C1 and axial protons at C2 and C6 is 8 Hz. In the cis-isomer the coupling constant (J) between the proton at C1 and equatorial protons at C2 and C6 is 2 Hz. In the trans-isomer the coupling (J) constant between the proton at C1 and axial protons at C2 and C6 is 8 Hz. In the trans-isomer the coupling constant (J) between the proton at C1 and equatorial protons at C2 and C6 is 2 Hz.
