Crystal structures of the dipotassium and potassium tetramethylammonium salts of benzene-1,2-disulfonic acid have been determined at 200 K and a PM3 enthalpy hypersurface for the substituent rotations of the free benzene-1,2-disulfonate dianion was calculated. The cogging of the two sulfonate groups as well as the possible pathways of conformational isomerization are discussed and compared with already investigated molecules containing adjacent threefold substituents.
