18. Conformational analysis of the hydrogenated product of 7, 1,2,4-triphenylbutane-1,4-dione, was performed using calculations at the AM 1 level of theory. The results indicated that the two 1,4-benzoyl groups adopt gauche conformation 7a rather than anti conformation 7b. The dihedral angle between the CO-C-2 bond and the CO-C-3 bond in the lowest energy conformer was 65°, and this dihedral demand could facilitate furan ring formation.
