Anancomeric 5-phenyl-1,3-dioxanes provide a unique opportunity to study factors that control conformation. Whereas one might expect an axial phenyl group at C(5) of 1,3-dioxane to adopt a conformation similar to that in axial phenylcyclohexane, a series of studies including X-ray crystallography, NOE measurements, and DFT calculations demonstrate that the phenyl prefers to lie over the dioxane ring in order to position an ortho-hydrogen to participate in a stabilizing, nonclassical CH···O hydrogen bond with a ring oxygen of the dioxane. Acid-catalyzed equilibration of a series of anancomeric 2-tert-butyl-5-aryl-1,3-dioxane isomers demonstrates that remote substituents on the phenyl ring affect the conformational energy of a 5-aryl-1,3-dioxane: electron-withdrawing substituents decrease the conformational energy of the aryl group, while electron-donating substituents increase the conformational energy of the group. This effect is correlated in a very linear way to Hammett substituent parameters. In short, the strength of the CH···O hydrogen bond may be tuned in a predictable way in response to the electron-withdrawing or electron-donating ability of substituents positioned remotely on the aryl ring. This effect may be profound: a 3,5-bis-CF3 phenyl group at C(5) in 1,3-dioxane displays a pronounced preference for the axial orientation. The results are relevant to broader conformational issues involving heterocyclic systems bearing aryl substituents.
