Try the following - it works well (replace "newsite" with your own wording,
I think it can even be left out):

You can insert this line in your httpd.conf (mainsite)

AliasMatch ^/newsite/([^/]+)(/(.*))? /home/sites/$1/web/$3

Then restart apache

After that, you can access it with:

www.originaldomain.com/newsite/www.newdomain.com
