Interactions intramoleculaires: XXII—Constantes de couplage, équilibres conformationnels et interactions gauches avec un groupement t-butyle (molécules cyclohexéniques deutériées)

The NMR parameters are determined for a series of disubstituted (R = CH₃, (CH₃)₃C; X = COOCH₃, CN) and specifically deuterated cyclohexenes. The ³ J(HH), ³J(HD), ⁴J(HH) and ⁵ J(HH) coupling constants are used to evaluate the conformational equilibria. Three of the five compounds with an allylic t-butyl substituent, are conformationally heterogeneous; these equilibria, and those between stereoisomers are used for an analysis of this phenomenon, carried out within the framework of the hypothesis of additivity of conformational free energies and gauche interactions.
