Five single molecules of pyridylthiourea compounds, benzoylpyridylthiourea derivatives were theoretically studied in order to understand their conformational preference, flexibility and stability. The calculation is made by Gaussian 09W at B3LYP/6-311G(d,p). The positional of methyl substituent group brought major effect to the conformations of the molecule that prone to form cis-trans conformation. In cis-trans conformation, N-benzoylN’-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)thiourea, the positional of methyl substituent indicates that this molecule has relatively high intermolecular hydrogen bonding compared to the other studied molecules. Nevertheless, hyperconjugation of methyl with pseudo six-memberedring has been observed in cis-trans conformation.
