Preferred Label : sawhorse projection;
IUPAC definition : A perspective formula indicating the spatial arrangement of bonds on two adjacent
carbon atoms. The bond between the two atoms is represented by a diagonal line, the
left-hand bottom end of which locates the atom nearer the observer and the right-hand
top end the atom that is further away. In general a Newman or zig-zag projection is
preferred.;
