The crystal structure of the tri(cyclohexylammonium) salt of phosphonopyruvate; theoretical calculations on the equilibrium constant for the rearrangement of phosphonopyruvate to phosphoenolpyruvate
Abstract
The crystal structure of phosphonopyruvate is reported and the co-ordinates are used to calculate that the theoretical equilibrium constant for its rearrangement to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) lies substantially towards PEP.
