The conformat ions of various cyclic peroxides have been determined using a molecular mechanics force field developed by the authors and previously applied to linear peroxides. Comparison of the results with those of experimental and ab initio studies shows that this force field may be employed with

✦ Synopsis
A force field has been developed for use in MM2 calculations of geometric and energy data for linear peroxides R1--O-O-R2
and tested in some of them (R1, R2 = H, Me, Et, Pr', But). The field obtained yield results that agree considerably better with experimental and ab initio data than those afforded by the only set of' estimated parameters hitherto available.
