Abstract
A conformational study of 1,2,4-trioxane molecule and several halogenated d erivatives was performed via the AM 1 and PM3 semiempirical molecular orbit al methods. Results are analyzed in a comparative fashion and discussed con sidering available experimental data. Different factors determining molecul ar stability of preferred conformations are pointed out in order to explain their respective contributions. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
