“…The most stable species is the conformer with D 3 symmetry, as confirmed by X‐ray crystallography 35. Using an AM1 semi‐empirical method,36 the formation energies of the conformer with C 2 symmetry and of the transition state were calculated to be 0.81 kcal mol −1 (3.4 kJ mol −1 ) and 3.44 kcal mol −1 (14.4 kJ mol −1 ) greater than that of the conformer with D 3 symmetry, respectively. The small energy barrier (3.44 kcal mol −1 ) suggests efficient interconversion between the conformers, which should manifest as a single peak in the mass chromatogram.…”

“…1(b) and (c)). The twist-boat-chair, or TBC (D 3 ), conformation has been calculated to have the lowest heat of formation 12 and is most likely the cause of the major peak in the chromatograms. A stable twist-chair-chair, TCC (C 2 ), conformation also exists which has a heat of formation 3.4 kJ mol 21 higher than that of the TBC conformation.…”
