Conformational isomerism, also known as conformers or conformational isomers, refers to the different spatial arrangements of a molecule that can be achieved by rotation around single bonds. Unlike structural isomers, which differ in the connectivity of atoms, conformational isomers differ only in their three-dimensional shapes due to the rotation around single sigma (σ) bonds.
