Chair conformation - A three-dimensional configuration consisting of a six-
membered ring in which all hydroxyl groups face away from the ring in an
equatorial position. The chair conformation is the most energetically stable of
all different forms of the ring. Bonding angles appear in the shape of a chair.
For an Organic Chemistry explanation of chair conformations, see Carbocycles.

Boat conformation - Slightly less stable than the chair conformation, the boat
