Figure 5
The conformational flexibility of the title compounds and the CSD structures. (a) The CSD structures corresponding to compounds (I) and (II) are shown along with (I) and (II), which are coloured as in Fig. 4. (b) Superposition of the CSD structures, which belong to the −ap and −ap conformations, along with compound (I), with slightly deviating structures marked. (c) Representative structures that adopt ±ap conformations in comparison with compound (I). (d) Superposition of the CSD structures which belong to the +sc and ±ap conformations, along with compound (II). For clarity, the P(O)(OPh)2N skeletons of the CSD structures have been retained and other substitutions have been removed for most of the structures. |
