The energy barriers to hindered rotation in two carbamate structures have been measured by total line-shape analysis of the high resolution n.m.r. spectrum. Conclusions are presented concerning the influence of solvent on the nature of the transition state in such processes and the existence of frequency factors outside the normal expected range for a unimolecular transformation.
