Abstract

Conjugative interactions of the carbon-carbon double bond are fundamental in organic chemistry. In this work, equilibria are established among conjugated and unconjugated isomers of two β-substituted styrenes, 1-phenylbut-1-ene and 1-phenyl-3-methylbut-1-ene, and one α, β-disubstituted styrene, 2-phenyl-5-methylhex-2-ene, over a range of temperatures (the van't Hoff method) in hexamethylphosphoric triamide and potassium tert ...
