Effect of intramolecular rotational reorganization of reagents on the ratio between free energies of activation and reaction

Conclusions The relationship between the free energies of activation G and reaction G_o for proton transfer processes have been analyzed, taking into account the effect of hindered rotation of the reagents. We have shown that the considered effect can considerably affect the shape of the G=f(G_o) curve.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 77–81, January 1989.
