However, a number of factors, and especially hydrogen-bonding, can change the monomeric character of either the ring or the chain form (or both), leading to deviations from the ideal sigma+ values. X-Ray analysis has demonstrated the chain structures of the products of the reactions of L-(-)-norpseudoephedrine and (+/-)-trans-2-aminomethylcyclohexanol with pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde.
