Molecular mechanics calculations were made for 1,1-dichlorobutane, 2,2-dichlorobutane, and 1,2-dichloro-2-methylpropane in order to compare the results with conclusions obtained from vibrational spectra concerning the conformational behavior of these compounds. Calculations were also made for 1,2-dichloro-2-methylbutane, although vibrational spectra are not available for this compound. The structures and relative energies of the most abundant conformers are given.
