15 Minimum Energy Isomerization Pathway. Lowest energy isomerization pathway lies along the (asymmetric torsion) coordinate.

16 Summary. b4HPM has three conformations in the jet expansion. All three conformers are nearly isoenergetic. Barriers to isomerization between conformers are within 0-45 cm –1. Theoretical calculations also indicate these unusually low barriers to isomerization. Minimum energy pathway lies along the asymmetric torsional coordinate.
