The conformational equilibrium of trans-1-X-2-Y-cyclohexanes (I) having bulky atoms or groups as substituents (X/Y = RS/Cl, RS/SR', RS/B, RSe/Cl, Br/Br, RSe/SO/sub 2/R) is shifted in nonpolar media toward the diaxial conformer, whose fraction increases with increasing atomic number of the element bound to the cyclohexane ring. In a study of the conformational properties of trans-1-bromo-2-tetramethylselenoniocyclohexane tetraphenylborate (II), the authors found a departure from this behavior. The PMR spectrum for this compound was taken in CD/sub 3/Cn at 200 MHz with TMS as the internal standard. The interactions between the substituents in (II) stabilize their approximate gauche orientation in contrast to the destabilization observed for trans-1-Br(or Cl)-2-RSe-(or RS)-cyclohexanes.
