Abstract:
The closely related title compounds, 1-(di-naphtho-[2,1-d:1',2'-f][1,3]dithiepin-4-yl)-2,2-di-methyl-propan-1-ol, C26H24OS2, 1 and 2-(di-naphtho-[2,1-d:1',2'-f][1,3]dithiepin-4-yl)-3,3-di-methyl-butan-2-ol, C27H26OS2, 2, both comprise an atrop-isomeric binaphthyl di-thio-acetal unit substituted at the methyl-ene carbon atom with a chiral neopentyl alcohol grouping. The overall stereochemistry of the racemate in each case is defined as aS,R and aR,S. In 1, the hydroxyl group generates inversion dimers via pairwise inter-molecular O-H⋯S hydrogen bonds whereas in 2, the O-H⋯S link is intra-molecular. Weak C-H⋯π inter-actions link the mol-ecules into extended arrays in both structures.

01:16Structure of Conjugated Dienes
Conjugated dienes are compounds characterized by the presence of alternating double and single bonds. In a conjugated system like 1,3-butadiene, the unhybridized 2p orbital on each carbon overlaps continuously, allowing the π electrons to be delocalized across the entire molecule. In contrast, this type of overlap does not occur in cumulated and isolated dienes, such as 2,3-pentadiene and 1,4-pentadiene, respectively. Instead, the π electrons remain localized between the double...

02:52Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
