5-Imino-5λ4-heptathiepane 3-oxide. More exuberent anomeric effects.
Year: 2025
Type: other
Abstract: The two previous posts[1],[2] on the topic of anomeric effects in 7-membered sulfur rings illustrated how orbital interactions between the lone pairs in the molecules and S-S bonds produced widely varying S-S bond lengths in the molecules, some are shorter than normal (which is ~2.05Å for e.g. the S 8 ring) by ~ 0.1Å and some are longer by ~0.24Å. Here we extend this to the unknown molecule shown below.
