Abstract:Conformational isomerization of 5-methyl-and 2,2,5-trimethyl-1,3-dithianes was studied using quantum-chemical HF/6-31G(d), HF/pVDZ, and PBE/3z approximations. The potential energy surface of molecules of both compounds is shown to contain the main minimum corresponding to the equatorial chair conformer C-5e. The calculated potential barriers of the conformational isomerization were found. Based on the experimental ( 1 H NMR) and theoretical vicinal coupling constants the ΔG 0 values were determined of the meth… Show more
