Selenium-77 NMR chemical shifts of five-membered selenium and sulphur heterocycles with CSe,CS,and CO groups

This paper reports the ⁷⁷Se NMR chemical shifts of 1,3-dithiole-, 1,3-thiaselenole- and 1,3-diselenole-2-ones, -thiones and -selones, of the corresponding saturated compounds 1,3-diselenolane-2-one, -thione and -selone, and the 1,3-thiaselenolium tetrafluoroborates, either unsubstituted or substituted by morpholino, ethylthio or ethylseleno groups in the 2-position. The ⁷⁷Se chemical shift values of the ring selenium and the C?Se groups are compared with the ¹³C chemical shift values of neighbouring carbon atoms. The relationships between the ⁷⁷Se chemical shifts of the C?Se groups and the wavelengths of their n→* absorption in the UV-visible spectrum are discussed with respect to the significance of the δE term in the contribution of the paramagnetic screening and the electron density distribution.     

Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonds of the CO…︁H?O Type as Studied by 17O-NMR

The ¹⁷O-NMR spectra of 1,4-naphthoquinone and 5-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (juglone) have been recorded in CDCl₃ solution at 40°. In juglone the ¹⁷O resonance of the carbonyl peri to the OH group was displaced by 70 ppm to low frequency relative to the resonance in the para-position. It is shown that this chemical shift arises mainly from intramolecular H-bonding, the substituent and steric effects being one order of magnitude smaller. Large carbonyl ¹⁷O chemical shifts between ?34 and ?100 ppm were also observed in a series of aromatic aldehydes and ketones where intramolecular H-bonds of the C?O…?H? O type are formed. The H-bond-induced carbonyl ¹⁷O chemical shifts were linearly correlated with both the ¹⁷O and ¹H chemical shifts of the OH groups. They represent a most sensitive measure of the strength of intramolecular H-bonds. The ¹⁷O resonances of the OH groups were directed to high frequency on H-bonding. Analysis of the ¹⁷O chemical shifts in 2,2′-dihydroxy-benzophenone showed clearly that the two OH groups build H-bonds simultaneously to the single carbonyl group. The ¹⁷O linewidths decreased strongly on H-bonding; the linewidth of the H-bonded carbonyl O-atom in juglone, for example, was reduced by 25% with respect to that of the free carbonyl O-atom. The carbonyl O-atom quadrupole coupling constants in juglone, evaluated from the combined use of ¹³C and ¹⁷O relaxation times, were 9.5 and 11.0 MHz, respectively. No correlation was observed between the H-bond-induced ¹⁷O chemical shifts and the variations in ¹⁷O quadrupole coupling constants.     

Etudes des sélénophènes mono et bisubstitués par Résonance Magnétique de 1H et de 13C

Proton and carbon magnetic resonance spectra of mono-and disubstituted selenophenes are investigated. The proton chemical shifts are discussed in terms of magnetic anisotropy and electric field effects of the substituents, with a view to studying the conformational equilibrium of the carbonyl group. π Electronic charges, computed by the PPP method, are correlated with the proton and carbon chemical shifts. The coupling constants between ¹³C and ¹H (1, 2 or 3 bonds) and ¹³C? ⁷⁷Se are shown to be good structural parameters and a set of substituent additivity constants is calculated.     

The Effect of C4H and C5H on the Microstructure of Aqueous Solutions of 1‐Alkyl‐3‐methylimidazolium Tetrafluoroborate Ionic Liquids

As is well‐known, the C2?H proton of 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Emim]BF₄) and 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim]BF₄) has a strong ability to form hydrogen bonds. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the effect of the interactions of the C4?H and C5?H protons on the microstructure of [Emim]BF₄ and [Bmim]BF₄ with water by using ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The differences between the relative ¹H NMR chemical shifts of C2?H, C4?H, and C5?H and between the interaction‐energy parameters obtained from these chemical shifts are minor, thus suggesting that the interactions of C4?H and C5?H may have a considerable effect on the microstructure. To confirm this, the viscosities of the systems are estimated by using the interaction‐energy parameters obtained from the ¹H NMR chemical shifts of the three studied aromatic protons and water, showing that the interactions of C4?H and C5?H also play an important role in the microstructure.     

Résonance magnétique nucléaire de 13C et 17O d'éthers aliphatiques. Effets γ entre les atomes d'oxygène et de carbone

The ¹³C- and ¹⁷O-chemical shifts of 31 aliphatic ethers are measured and discussed. The ¹⁷O-chemical shifts of the ethers ROR′ correlate with chemical shifts for the methylene groups of the corresponding alkanes RCH₂R′. The constant of proportionality can be related to the orbital expansion term 〈r^?3〉_2p. The δ_c for carbon atoms can also be correlated with δ_c for the corresponding alkanes. The origin of the correlation is discussed taking into account the conformational modifications resulting from introduction of an oxygen atom in an alkyl chain.     

NMR,MP2, and DFT study of thiophenoxyketenimines (o‐thio‐Schiff bases): Determination of the preferred form

Five new thiophenoxyketinimines have been synthesized. ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra as well as deuterium isotope effects on ¹³C chemical shifts are determined, and spectra are assigned. DFT and MP2 calculations of both structures, chemical shifts, and isotope effects on chemical shifts are done. The combined analysis reveals that the compounds are primarily on a zwitterionic form with an NH⁺ and a S⁻ group and with a little of the neutral form mixed in. Very strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding is found and very high NH chemical shifts are observed. The theoretical calculations show that calculations at the MP2 level are best to obtain correct “C═S” chemical shifts.     

Tetraphenylporphyrin molecules containing heteroatoms other than nitrogen: 8—A carbon-13 NMR study

The ¹³C NMR spectra of new hetero-substituted tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) molecules have been studied. It was found that most of the carbon chemical shifts are similar to those found in TPP. The similar chemical shifts of the different β-carbons in S₂TPP and in Se₂TPP free bases and, moreover, the considerable downfield shift of the α-carbons of the S(Se)-rings on protonation are in agreement with the previously suggested theory of inner and outer aromaticity in these porphyrins.     

NMR Spectra of Cyclic Nitrones. 7. The Influence of Substituents and a Hydrogen Bond on <Superscript>14</Superscript>N and <Superscript>17</Superscript>O Chemical Shifts in Derivatives of 3-Imidoazoline 3-Oxide

Derivatives of 3-imidazoline 3-oxide have been studied by ¹⁴N and ¹⁷O NMR methods. Regularities of the influence of substituents and of a hydrogen bond on chemical shifts have been made apparent. The range of changes of the chemical shifts of the nitrogen and oxygen nuclei of the nitrone group has been determined. Both in the ¹⁷O and in the ¹⁴N NMR spectra the signals of the amino derivatives are the highest field signals for the nitrone group, and the lowest field signals are the signals of the cyano derivatives in the series of derivatives investigated. Depending on the substituent (from amino to cyano group) the ¹⁷O chemical shifts varied over a range ∼155 ppm, but the interval of change of the ¹⁴N chemical shifts for the same substituents was ∼110 ppm. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1336–1341.

RMN 13C de cyclanones halogénées. Détermination et additivité des incréments du chlore en série cyclohexanique

The ¹³C n.m.r. spectra of fourteen chlorocyclohexanones have been recorded to examine the variation of the ¹³C chemical shifts as a function of the position and the number of the chlorine substituents. Additivity relationships were found which enable reasonable prediction of the chemical shifts of chlorinated cyclohexanones. Comparison between the observed and calculated chemical shifts of mono- and dichlorinated flexible molecules shows that the chlorine effects are additive.     

Isomérie Conformationnelle autour de la Liaison Carbone–Carbone dans les Sels de Propénylylidène Ammonium

¹H n.m.r. measurements of a series of propenylylideneammonium salts at temperatures varying from ?90 °C to 70 °C reveal the existence of two conformers. Values of chemical shifts and coupling constants are explained by rotation about a carbon–carbon bond; this hypothesis is supported by the ¹³C n.m.r. results. Free energies of activation are given for various substituents.     

Etude par RMN 13C à 62,89 MHz de ramifications longues d'alcanes lourds branchés. Modèles de PEbd et des copolymères éthylène-α oléfines

A series of 12-alkyl tricosanes (four compounds) was examined by use of ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance at 62,89 MHz as model compounds for isolated short- and long-chain (C₅, C₆, C₇, C₈) branches in low-density polyethylene and ethylene-α olefin copolymers. An array of ¹³C resonances was observed and we note that the ¹³C chemical shifts became insensitive to branch length with octyl and longer branches at this field.     

Non-empirical and DFT calculations of <Superscript>19</Superscript>F and <Superscript>13</Superscript>C chemical shifts in the NMR spectra of substituted pentafluorobenzenes

Chemical shifts in ¹⁹F and ¹³C NMR spectra of substituted pentafluorobenzenes are calculated by Hartree-Fock and density functional theory methods. The calculated values are compared with the experimental data known from the literature. It is shown that chemical shifts in non-polar solvents can be predicted sufficiently accurately by the GIAO-DFT(PBE/L22) method. This method is used to predict the ¹⁹F and ¹³C chemical shifts of a heptafluorobenzyl cation in the SbF₅ medium. The best agreement between the calculated and experimental values is achieved when the counterion effect is taken into account.     

Conformational equilibrium in 8-methyl-cis-2-thiahydrindane and 8-methyl-cis-2-oxahydrindane by 13C NMR spectroscopy

The preferred conformation of 8-methyl-cis-thiahydrindane has been both estimated by ¹³C NMR chemical shifts and determined by low temperature ¹³C NMR spectroscopy to be the conformer with the methyl group equatorial with respect to the cyclohexane ring. This result is in disagreement with the interpretation of the temperature dependence of the CD spectra of (+) and (?) 8-methyl-cis-2-thiahydrindane, whereby the conformation with the methyl group axial with respect to the cyclohexane ring was claimed to be the preferred conformation. The preferred conformation of the related oxygen heterocycle, 8-methyl-cis-2-oxahydrindane, has been estimated by ¹³C NMR chemical shifts to be the conformer with the methyl group axial with respect to the cyclohexane ring. Possible reasons for these observations are discussed.     

Investigation of DOTA–Metal Chelation Effects on the Chemical Shift of 129Xe

Recent work has shown that xenon chemical shifts in cryptophane‐cage sensors are affected when tethered chelators bind to metals. Here, we explore the xenon shifts in response to a wide range of metal ions binding to diastereomeric forms of 1,4,7,10‐tetraazacyclododecane‐1,4,7,10‐tetraacetic acid (DOTA) linked to cryptophane‐A. The shifts induced by the binding of Ca²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ce³⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Cr²⁺, Fe³⁺, and Hg²⁺ are distinct. In addition, the different responses of the diastereomers for the same metal ion indicate that shifts are affected by partial folding with a correlation between the expected coordination number of the metal in the DOTA complex and the chemical shift of ¹²⁹Xe. These sensors may be used to detect and quantify many important metal ions, and a better understanding of the basis for the induced shifts could enhance future designs.     

Struktur-Reaktivitätsuntersuchungen mit heterosubstituierten Nitrilen—VII: 13C-, 14N- und 19F-NMR-Spektroskopische Untersuchungen an Verbindungen vom Typ Ar?X?CN

The chemical shifts of aromatic nitriles of the general structure para-Y? C₆H₄? X? CN with X = O, S, Se and N(CH₃) have been investigated by the ¹³C NMR technique. For cyanates (X = O) the ¹⁴N shifts and for Y = F the ¹⁹F shifts were likewise measured. The chemical shifts and the corresponding ¹³C shift increments Δ_n have been found to correlate with the appropriate substituent constants σ_R⁰, σ_p⁰ and σ_I, as well as with the π-electron densities calculated in the PPP approximation.     

Ion pairing in H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O and D<Subscript>2</Subscript>O solutions of lead nitrate,as determined with <Superscript>207</Superscript>Pb NMR spectroscopy

The temperature and concentration dependences of ²⁰⁷Pb NMR chemical shifts of Pb(NO₃)₂ in D₂O are reported. The results are analyzed in terms of exchange between a solvated lead ion and the Pb(NO₃)⁺ contact-ion pair. Predictions of the chemical shift difference between the aquated ion and contact-ion pair are carried out for the gas-phase entities and for the solvated species with a DFT calculation. Previously reported data on ²⁰⁷Pb NMR chemical shifts of Pb(NO₃)₂ in H₂O are reevaluated. From the analysis, the enthalpy of dissociation of the contact-ion pair is found to be–42.3±1.0 kJ/mol.     

Etude par RMN du Proton et du Carbone-13 de Pyrimidines Substituées. I—Effets de Substituant dans les Dérivés Méthylés et Aminés

Substituent effects of methyl and amino groups on the chemical shifts of pyrimidine have been investigated by ¹H and ¹³C n.m.r. and compared with similar data obtained for benzene and pyridine. Taking into account pairwise interactions, the chemical shifts calculated by using an additivity relationship are in very good agreement with the experimental results, except for some hindered pyrimidines. This study enabled us to assign the ¹³C n.m.r. spectra of some trisubstituted pyrimidines.     

Prototropic processes in benzaurins. <Superscript>19</Superscript>F and <Superscript>1</Superscript>H NMR spectra of fluoro- and methylsubstituted 4-hydroxyphenyl-diphenylcarbinols,related fuchsones and benzaurins

Tautomerism of benzaurins and hydration are studied. ¹H and ¹⁹F chemical shifts have been determined for a number of substituted 4-hydroxyphenyl-diphenyl carbinols containing fluorine in a 3-, 3*- or 4*-position, and for similar compounds containing additional methyl groups in a position of 3, 3** or 4**. The same data have been obtained for the fuchsones prepared by dehydration of the above carbinols. On this basis chemical shifts of fluorine in different positions have been evaluated as a monitor of the transformation of 4-hydroxyphenyl group to the semiquinone moiety. The ¹⁹F NMR can be used to monitor the transformation of 4**-fluorobenzaurin and the related 3,3*-disubstituted and 3,3*,5,5*-tetramethylsubstituted compounds to the corresponding carbinols due to the addition of a water molecule and to study the tautomerism of the two latter benzaurins as well as that of 3,3*,4**trifluorobenzaurin. Furthermore, fluorine and methyl group chemical shifts are sensitive to syn-anti-isomerism in substituted fuchsones.

The ¹³C chemical shift data of some tricyclic derivatives prepared by carbene addition to bicyclo-alkenes are presented and compared with the shifts observed in the parent olefins. The shielding induced at the C-7 atom can be used to determine the stereochemistry of the carbene addition.     

Etude en Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire du Carbone-13 de Quelques Aminopyrazoles. Sur le Problème de la Détermination des Constantes d'Equilibre Tautomère

The ¹³C chemical shifts of 32 pyrazoles were measured in hexadeuterated dimethyl sulphoxide and in hexamethylphosphorotriamide. Substituent effects (methyl and amino groups on the pyrazolic carbons, and methyl, n-butyl and phenyl groups on the nitrogen) were calculated by multilinear regression analysis. The general problem of the ¹³C NMR study of annular tautomerism in azoles is discussed and illustrated by the 3(5)-aminopyrazole case.
