## Abstract The conformational properties of triamino‐substituted 1,3,5‐trinitrobenzenes were studied by X‐ray crystallography, dynamic NMR spectroscopy, and semiempirical calculations. As amino substituents all possible combinations of a dialkyl‐, a monoalkylamino, and an amino group were used. Al

Conformational analysis / "Push-pull" interaction / Benzene ring, deformation to boat and twist-boat forms /
Calculations, AM1
The X-ray analyses of three 1,3,5-tris(alkylamino)-2,4,6-trinitrobenzenes (alkyl = iPr, neopentyl, t B u 1 df) show their benzene rings to be highly distorted towards boat ( l d .
iPrNHZ) and twist-boat (le,f) forms. The patterns found for intramolecular donor-acceptor interaction and hydrogen bonding depend on the conformation of the benzene core: boat structures have the "stern" amino group strongly donating to the "bow" nitro group in the para position and two stronger hydrogen bonds between the substituents on the "side" of the boat, whereas twist-boat structures have two amino groups ~
