Notes:
On the basis of coupling constants and chemical shifts the conformation of meso and racemic 2,3,4-trichloropentanes have been determined. The meso isomer exists as an equilibrium between the expected rotameric forms but the racemic isomer is anomalous and exists almost entirely as a distorted form of a rotamer which has parallel 1:3 interactions. The significance of these conformations is discussed in relation to the likely conformation and stability of the corresponding stereoregular polymers, which may be derived from cis- and trans-1, 2-dichloroethylene.
