Dec. 2009 expansion[edit]

Great expansion of this article, several remarks though:

  • Allylic strain is not a type of energy. It is a rotational barrier with a strain energy associated with it.
  • The reference to bisecting / eclipsed has disappeared in the new edit.

Geometric isomers instead of conformers[edit]

The figure with the caption "A represents the conformation that would occur in most situations due to allylic strain. However, as shown in B a hydrogen bond can form that is energetically favorable and cancels the disfavorable allylic strain. Thus, B is the most stable conformation."...

is showing two different geometric isomers, instead of two conformers, correct? 203.198.31.157 (talk) 08:36, 22 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
