Abstract

The knowledge about the effects that rule internal rotation of methyl groups is the key in understanding physical chemistry properties and reactivity of molecules. Using this as motivation, different substituted acetyl groups were studied with NBO theory and the effects that govern conformational preferences calculated by computational methods.
