Model compounds of poly(methyl methacrylate). Conformational structure of 2,2-dimethyl-1-methoxypropane and of the methyl ester of 3-methoxy-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid

Abstract
By analysis of infrared, Raman and 13C NMR spectra of 2,2-dimethyl-1-methoxypropane and of the methyl ester of 3-methoxy-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid, the formation of conformers generated by rotation about the CH2-OCH3 and C-CH2 bonds was studied. It was found that in both molecules, only the form with trans orientation of the C-CH2-O-CH3 bonds is present. The conformational structure of the major form of the methyl ester of 3-methoxy-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid was proposed.
