Oehme, Guenther published the artcileTheory of α-keto acids. XVI. Infrared and dipole moment measurements for study of the steric effect of alkyl radicals in the β-position on the conformation of ethyl α-bromo-carboxylates and ethyl α-ketocarboxylates, Name: Ethyltert-butylacetate, the publication is Chemische Berichte (1968), 101(4), 1499-509, database is CAplus.
The dipole moments and ir spectra of the title compounds, RCHBrCO2Et (I) and RCOCO2Et (II), were dependent on the size of the alkyl R group. In the series R = Me, Et, iso-Pr, tert-Bu, a discontinuity, attributed to conformational differences between halo and ester or α-carbonyl and ester groups, was observed in going from iso-Pr to tert-Bu. Among the I, only I (R = tert-Bu) was present in rotational isomer form, while for the II, coexisting conformational isomers were generally detected.
Chemische Berichte published new progress about 5340-78-3. 5340-78-3 belongs to esters-buliding-blocks, auxiliary class Aliphatic Chain, name is Ethyltert-butylacetate, and the molecular formula is C8H16O2, Name: Ethyltert-butylacetate.
