APPLICATIONS OF NMR AND THEORETICAL CALCULATIONS TO STUDY THE O-H∙∙∙N INTRAMOLECULAR HYDROGEN BOND EFFECT ON THE CONFORMATIONAL EQUILIBRIUM OF CIS-3-N-ETHYLAMINOCYCLOHEXANOL AND CIS-3-N,N-DIETHYLAMINOCYCLOHEXANOL [PDF]
Textbooks show that in cis-1,3-disubstituted cyclohexane molecule, the conformer with the substituents in the diaxial positions is higher in energy and hence, it presents a low population in the conformational equilibrium.
