81. There is a systematic (and unexplained) tendency of theoretical calculations to slightly overestimate the stability of the cis conformer of the amino derivatives of compounds I and II according to experimental results.

83. This is done by "removing all the backbone" of Wilcox's compounds, maintaining the relative orientation found in B3LYP optimizations. For the tetrafluoro and nitro derivatives also the perfect T-shaped orientation is considered.
