TY - JOUR AU - Massa, Werner AB - An isobutyl group placed equatorially in the 2‐position of a 1‐equatorially substituted cyclohexane adopts a preferred conformation (cf. 5). This also holds when it is placed in the 2‐position on a 3‐equatorially substituted tetrahydropyran (cf. 6). The same conformational preference is found for 2‐methoxypropyl residues in the 2‐position of 3‐substituted tetrahydropyrans (cf. 8 and 10). The latter compounds chelate lithium cations as analogues of 1,2‐dimethoxyethane. Through this complexation, it is possible to effect a change in the side chain conformation.
