Conformational analysis of 5-bromo-5-nitro-1,3-dioxane

详细

Conformational analysis of 5-bromo-5-nitro-1,3-dioxane has been performed by computer simulation in terms of HF/pVDZ, hybrid DFT PBE/3ξ, and RI-MP2/λ2 quantum chemical methods. The global minimum on the potential energy surface corresponds to the chair conformer with axial nitro group, and the other two minima have been identified as chair conformer with equatorial nitro group and 2,5-twist. All transition states on the route of conformational transformations of the title molecule have been revealed.
