Abstract

The shape of a flexible molecule, i.e. the preferred conformation of a multi-substituted alkyl chain, may be controlled by the nature and location of the pendant substituents. Steric interactions between those substituents themselves as well as the main chain, or sterically demanding end-groups, can be used to realize conformation design of flexible molecules.
