• In the general case, the clearing temperature of the diaxial conformer T MI(aa) can be expressed as a fraction a of the clearing temperature of the diequatorial conformer, which leads to the expanded form of Equation (5): T MI(aa) = T MI(D)•K+1)/(a•K+1). For simplicity, parameter a is assumed to be 0. However, the value of a defines the average difference ΔT MI = T MI(ee) − T MI(E) and the steric energy; for increasing values of a the ΔT MI increases and ΔG decreases. Conversely, as the parameter a decreases below 0, the ΔT MI also decreases and ΔG increases

• For the purpose of this discussion ΔS is assumed to be 0, which makes ΔG temperature independent. The reported ΔS value for a single COOR group in t‐BuOH is 0.4±0.1 cal mol−1 K−1 (57) and in ether/toluene‐d8 –0.6±0.8 cal mol−1 K−1 (Booth, H.; Dixon, J.M.; Khedhair, K.A. Tetrahedron 1992, 48, 6161–6174). However, the exact value of entropy change is not essential for the purpose of this discussion
