Abstract
The conformational preferences of trans-1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid (1,2-CH) and ester derivatives have been studied. The optical rotatory properties of these compounds are discussed in comparison with those of other cyclic dicarboxylic acids. A stereoregular polymer, poly[ethylene-(+)-trans-1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylate] (1,2-CHPE) has been synthesized, and its properties are compared with those of model compounds.
