Abstract:
An error in printing is reported. In the paper by Pani et al. [Acta Cryst. (1998), B54, 872-876] the value of Deltarho(max) is given incorrectly in the last sentence on page 874. The sentence should read 'In the last difference Fourier map, the highest Deltarho values were found near the Cl atoms (Deltarho(max) +0.32 e Å(-3)); the final reliability indexes were R(1) = 0.072 over 1762 F(o) > 4sigma(F(o)) and wR(2) = 0.228 on 4029 F(o)(2) for 245 refined parameters, with a goodness-of-fit of 0.96.'

Chemical Shift: Internal References and Solvent Effects
The internal reference compound generally used in NMR spectroscopy is tetramethylsilane (TMS). TMS is preferred because it is chemically inert, soluble in NMR solvents, and easily removable. Also, the highly shielded methyl protons in TMS yield an intense...

Stability of Substituted Cyclohexanes
The two chair conformations of cyclohexanes undergo rapid interconversion at room temperature. Both forms have identical energies and stabilities, each comprising equal amounts of the equilibrium mixture. Replacing a hydrogen atom with a functional group makes the two conformations energetically non-equivalent.
For example, in...
