✦ Synopsis


The Monte Carlo search of the low-energy regions of D-mannitol (4) and D-glucitol (5) conformational space was undertaken in order to investigate conformational effects on the stereochemistry of the acid-catalyzed dehydrative cyclization reaction of 4 and 5 to the corresponding 1,4:3,6-dianhydrohexitols. It was found that although dominant conformations in water resemble closely the crystal state conformations of 4 and 5, the same is not true in solvents of low polarity. The magnitudes of the calculated energies of the reactive conformations for the dehydrative cyclization reaction suggest an S N 2 mechanism with a late transition state.
