What are the isomers for cyclohexane?

For unsubstituted cyclohexane, there are no cis-trans isomers. You need substitution off the cyclohexane ring for there to be isomers. More exactly, you need 2 substitutents at 2 different carbon centers of the cyclohexane ring for isomers to exist. If you are talking about stable ‘conformers’ of cyclohexane, those would be the ‘chair’, the ‘boat’ and the ‘twist-boat’… Hope this helps!!! Additional comments: Hexene has cis / trans (also known as E/Z) isomers centered at the double bond. This isomerism does not translate to unsubstituted cyclohexane…
