This article presents the results of an extensive examination of the stable conformations of CH,CH,OCH,CH,OH at various levels of theory. In particular, 41 initial conformations are optimized using the MM2 force field in BIGSTRN-3; the MIND0/3, MNDO, and AM1 Hamiltonians in AMPAC 2.2; the PM3 Hamilt

β¦ Synopsis
A theoretics! conformational analysis (within the CNDO/Z approximation) of CH30-PF2 rsvcaled the esistence of twoga~ck equivalent prefcrrcd conformations, in divgreement with Schivendeman's interpretation of microwave spectra. The barrier to internal rotation for the methyl group is found to be low (1.2 kcsi/rnoIe). The use of Pap!e's energy partitioning shows that the variations of total energy as a function of the rotations around the P-O and C-C bonds are mainly determined by th;: spatial X'(P...H) interaction term between the phospherus atom and the three hydrogens of the methyl group.'
