摘要: Abstract High-level ab initio quantum chemistry calculations are shown to predict conformer populations of 1,2-dimethoxypropane and 5-methoxy-1,3-dioxane that consistent with gas-phase NMR vicinal coupling constant measurements. The conformational energies the cyclic ether found be those predicted by a rotational isomeric state (RIS) model based upon acyclic analog 1,2-dimethoxypropane. RIS indicate presence strong attractive 1,5 C(H3)⋯O electrostatic interactions in these molecules, similar 1,2-dimethoxyethane.
