Notes:
Molecular mechanics (MM2) calculations have been carried out on the ten-membered ring trithioethers, 1,4,7-trithiacyclodecane (10S3) and 1,4,7-trithiacyclodecan-9-one (keto-10S3). The lowest energy conformations according to these calculations are a [1333] and a [2233] conformation, respectively. The crystal and molecular structure of the ketone, 1,4,7-trithiacyclodecan-9-one, has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray study. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21, with two molecules per unit cell of dimensions a = 7.176(1) Å, b = 5.3447(6) Å, c = 12.0914(6) Å, and β = 96.486(7)0, and R = 0.048. The conformation adopted by the compound in the crystalline state is a [2323] or boat-chair-boat conformation with two sulfur atoms endodentate and one sulfur atom exodentate.
