  39. Literature results have been reduced to the chair → twist barrier value where necessary, though often it is not clear whether results are for chair → chair or for chair → twist interconversion. Where there is any explicit or implicit evidence that a change should be made to give the chair → twist barrier, this has been done. Values calculated at the coalescence temperature are given. In some cases where coalescence of an AB-quartet has been treated as coalescence of a doublet, results have been re-calculated on the basis of an AB quartet. Many results quoted in this review differ from these in the original literature for one or several of these reasons. In some cases barriers reported are for partially deuterated compounds but this may not be pointed out in this text.

  53. This assumes that at all times van der Waals' forces are repulsive. They may in certain. circumstances be attractive but this qualification is relegated to a footnote since any attractive forces involved are expected to be small from the nature of the Lennard-Jones potential. Further, in the case of bulky substituents such as we are considering here, there are inevitably large van der Waals' repulsive interactions which swamp any small attractive interactions present.

  59. We have chosen these substitution patterns since they must have axial substituents in any chair conformation, and 1,3 diaxial substituent-hydrogen interactions are expected to be the strongest van der Waals' interaction in cyclohexane, We have excluded 1,1,2,2-tetrasubstituted cyclohexanes, since 1,2 interactions are presumably the principal factors in these molecules.

  76. Since the ultimate effect of a large number of 1,3-diaxial interactions in a six-membered ring is to cause a molecule to adopt a twist conformation, see the section on the twist conformation below, it is reasonable to assume such interactions are considerably relieved in the twist conformation and somewhat relieved in the intermediate half-chair conformation.
