Define why the cis isomer is more stable

Reference no: EM13492541

Trans-1,4-di-tert-butylcyclohexane exists in a normal chair conformation. Cis-1,4-di-tertbutylcyclohexane, however, adopts a twist-boat conformation. Draw both isomers, and explain why the cis isomer is more stable in a twist-boat conformation.
