There and back again: the role of hyperconjugation in the fluorine <i>gauche</i> effect
Vinícius C. Port, Rodrigo A. Cormanich
Abstract
The fluorine gauche effect was revisited by comparing the rotational profile of 1,2-difluoroethane ( DFE ) with several analogues, such as peroxides and dissulfides. Hyperconjugative effects are the most important ones for the gauche preference of DFE .
