Chemistry of Natural Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

A conformational analysis has been made by the method of molecular mechanics of the α-apienes — natural sesquiterpenes isolated from plants of the Apiaceae family. The results of the mathematical method with the inclusion of those x-ray structural studies have shown that in the molecules under consideration it is possible to expect the predominant realization of four conformations of the 11-membered ring:14A 78 ,14A 87 ,14A 87 , and14A 78 . These four conformations of unsubstituted α-apiene and its natural derivatives have been characterized energetically, and the barriers to their interconversions have been evaluated.
