Abstract

The trend toward steric acceleration for N-inversion and steric deceleration for CN rotation has been verified in an homogeneous series of tertiary isopropylamines. Unambiguous evidence has been obtained that in a crowded amine (3-pentyl diisopropylamine) the barrier to rotation becomes higher than that to inversion. It has also been shown that this amine adopts an eclipsed, rather than a staggered dynamic conformation.
