CONFORMATIONAL PREFERENCE IN 4,6-DIMETHYL-l,3-THIOXANE

Trans-4,6-dimethyl-l,3-thioxane shows two conformations as a result of the heterocyclic ring inversion. The I and II conformers interconversion process has been studied by means of ab initio methods. The thermodynamics of this reaction calculated at the MP2/6-311+G**// HF/6-31G" and B3LYP/6-311...
