Reduction of n-Dimensional Problems

The puzzle we had to solve consists in deep analyses of the possible direct relationships which must exist between the 8 apparently random sets of aziridinyl conformations within Figs. 50 to 56. In other words, we had to attempt a reduction of the 5-, 6 and 

7-dimensional problems manifested by SOF or SOPHi, SOAz and MYKO 63 (at the level of their wings conformations) to a lower degree which would then enable us to perform the conformational analysis of the whole system by quantum chemistry in a classical way. The code names we shall use below for the molecules studied are gathered in Table 18.

Consequently, there are three different front-views for every molecule and it is possible to choose at any time which one of them will be the most suitable for comparison of two given structures. 

We performed in this way a systematic comparison two by two (FLIP-FLOP program) of all these front-views and the most important features we obtained are
