Gas-Phase Structure of 3,7,9-tris(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)-3,7,9-triazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane by GED and Theoretical Calculations.

The molecular structure and conformational and rotational composition of 3,7,9-tris(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)-3,7,9-triazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane have been investigated by synchronous gas-phase electron diffraction/mass spectrometry GED/MS and theoretical calculations (B3LYP and M06-2X with cc-pVTZ and aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets) and compared to the X-ray structure.
