Ring inversion of eight substituted 2‐phenyl‐4, 4‐dimethyloxazolidines in o ‐dichlorobenzene‐ d 4 was studied by 1 H DNMR. Very high inversion barriers (Δ G o ≠ = 86.7–93.4 kJ·mol −1 ) were found for these oxazolidine rings. The magnitude of the inversion barrier is dependent on the polarity of the substituent on the phenyl group. A linear correlation is present between the Δ G o ≠ of the inversion and the substituent constant, σ+, of the substituent.
