Most widely accepted explanation for the anomeric effect:

hyperconjugation resonace form stabalizes axial conformation

Closer Examination of Orbitals:

HOMO: non-bonding (nOxygen)

Preference for equatorial position with positively charged-electronegative substituents

O

NR 3

highly debated in the literature

  • often the charged species studied are bulky and sterics have a greater contributioin
  • dipole interactions in equitorial state are not stabalizing (evidence for this model)
  • no lone pair on axial subsituent to contribute to the exo-anomeric effect
  • the axial structure is weak (favored by elimination) and unlikely to exist, only the equitorial isomer is

preferred as a result O
