Type conformations and pseudorotation interconversion path-way between conformations: A tool to study medium size (5–9 atoms) rings

Type conformations for the conformational characterization of medium size rings (5–9 atoms) are presented. Pseudorotation interconversion path-way between conformations is described in terms of intra-ring torsion angles. This allows simple conformational analysis of any ring. Several examples of application are presented.
