Abstract: | ![]() The anomeric equilibrium of 2-methoxy-trans-5,6-dimethyltetrahydropyran was found to have an enhanced fraction of axial methoxyl compared to 2-methoxy-4- or 6-methyltetrahydropyran. The 2-methoxy-cis-5,6-dimethyltetrahydropyran did not. The enhanced anomeric effect is attributed to a steric repulsion between the trans vicinal Me groups. A similar effect is postulated for methyl glucoside and glucose pentaacetate. |
