Figure 1
Projection diagrams of the isopropyl substituents in (IV) , showing that the average methyl vector (arrow) for one of the isopropyl groups resides in the −anticlinal region of torsional space (left), while the other isopropyl group resides in the +anticlinal region (right). Hence, the use here of the designation (+ac,−ac), where the + and − signs indicate positive and negative torsion angle values. |
