Different arrangements of atoms that can be converted in to one another by rotation about single bonds are called conformations. there are infinite arrangement which arise due free rotation around carbon - carbon sigma bond , different conformations corresponding to energy minima are called conformational isomers . the conformational isomerism arises due to free rotation along a bond
