Tautomeric and conformational properties of dipivaloylmethane
The
tautomeric and structural properties of
5-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3-heptanone, (dipivaloylmethane,
C(CH3)3C(O)CH2C(O)C(CH3)3) have been studied by means of gas-phase
electron diffraction
(GED) and quantum chemical calculations (B3LYP and MP2 approximation
with different basis sets up to
aug-cc-pVTZ). Both, quantum chemistry and GED analyses resulted in the
presence of 100(5)% enol
tautomer at 296(3)K. Quantum chemical calculations predict the existence
of two enol conformers in
about equal amounts. In both conformers the enol ring possesses Cs
symmetry and they possess different
torsional orientations of the two tert-butyl groups. The experimental
data refinement results in an enol
tautomer, in which the tert-butyl group adjacent to the carbonyl group
possesses an intermediate
orientation between those in “enol1” and “enol 2” forms (torsional angle
is about 30 ), and the tert-butyl
group adjacent to the hydroxyl group slightly deviates from orientation
in the theoretical conformers (by
about 10 ). The enol ring possesses CS symmetry with a strongly
asymmetric hydrogen bond. The
experimental geometric parameters are reproduced very closely by the
B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ method.
