Abstract
The trans form of octahydro-1-methyl-1H-2,1-benzothiazine 2,2-dioxide, in which a six-membered sultam unit is trans-fused to cyclohexane, ha s been synthesized. The single-crystal X-ray structure shows the molec ule to have the N-methyl group in the axial orientation. The generaliz ed anomeric effect believed to be responsible for the axial preference is estimated at greater than or equal to 2 kcal mol(-1).
