Absolute Stereochemistry of Dimethyl 9-(1,1-Dimethyl-2-phenylethyl)-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethenoanthracene-11,12-dicarboxylate Rotamers

Abstract
Absolute stereochemistry of the title compounds is determined through X-ray analysis of the 11-(−)-menthyl ester of the corresponding 11-carboxylic acid and its CD spectra are reported. Features of the molecular structure are discussed and revival of a term “absolute conformation” is proposed.
