Geometry and conformations of benzenecarboxylic acids

The geometry, conformations and energy of mono-, di-, and tri-carboxylic derivatives of benzene were studied by means of the AM1 molecular-orbital method. Whereas the species having no carboxylic groups in the ortho-position (benzoic, isophthalic, terephthalic, and trimesic acids) are planar in all...
