The conformational equilibrium of the axial/equatorial conformers of 4‐methylene‐cyclohexyl pivalate is studied by dynamic NMR spectroscopy in a methylene chloride/freon mixture. At 153 K, the ring interconversion gets slow on the nuclear magnetic resonance timescale, the conformational equilibrium (−ΔG°) can be examined, and the barrier to ring interconversion (ΔG # ) can be determined. The structural influence of sp 2 hybridization on both ΔG° and ΔG # of the cyclohexyl moiety can be quantified.
