Intramolecular hydrogen bonding in trans-2-halogenocyclohexanols, and enthalpy differences between the chair conformations
Abstract
Infrared studies show that in non-polar solvents at 25° the ee-forms of trans-2-halogenocyclohexanols are largely but not completely hydrogen bonded: the ee(bonded)- and aa-forms do not differ greatly in thermochemical stability.
