Abstract

The X-ray structures and proton and carbon-13 NMR spectra have been obtained for two dicyclohexyl esters and one tricyclohexyl ester: namely, di-2-methylcyclohexylsuccinate (D2MCS), dicyclohexyl-3,4-furandicarboxylate (DCFDC) and tricyclohexyl-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate (TCPTC). These esters are models for high-traction fluids. It was shown that the molecular modelling calculations we performed (on DCFDC and TCPTC) are not adequate for determining the minimum energy configuration of the compounds investigated.
