Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonds and Conformational Properties of Benzylamine

Low potential energy barriers means benzylamine exists in different conformational forms that can easily interconvert; one such form is shown in the picture where τ1=140–320° and τ2=60°. The conformational properties of benzylamine and the low energy vibrational modes are determined by nonbonding in...

Zusammenfassung:Low potential energy barriers means benzylamine exists in different conformational forms that can easily interconvert; one such form is shown in the picture where τ1=140–320° and τ2=60°. The conformational properties of benzylamine and the low energy vibrational modes are determined by nonbonding interactions (C−H⋅⋅⋅N and N−H⋅⋅⋅π intramolecular hydrogen bonds) as is demonstrated by a combination of high resolution spectroscopic data and high level quantum chemical calculations.
