Abstract

Throwing a curve: The first example of a through-bond stereoelectronic effect for curved aromatic compounds is described for buckybowls, that is, benzylic-substituted sumanenes. Methyl- and hydroxysumanene favor the endo-R conformer because of a difference in the strength, between the conformers, of the hyperconjugation of the benzylic C[BOND]H bond with the bowl.
