Abstract
The preferred conformation of fluorocholine (CH3)3–N+–CH2–CH2–F and several analogues in aqueous solution has been determined by n.m.r. spectroscopic analysis and the crystal structure of (CH3CH2)3N+–CH2–CH2–F·Br– determined. The preferred conformation of N+–C–C–F is clearly synclinal. In comparison, that of N+–C–C–O– has previously been shown also to be synclinal and that of N+–C–C–S– and N+–C–C–Se– to be antiplanar.
