Complete 1H, 13C and 15N NMR assignment of tirapazamine and related 1,2,4-benzotriazine N-oxides

1H, 13C and 15N NMR measurements (1D and 2D including 1H--15N gs-HMBC) have been carried out on 3-amino-1, 2,4-benzotriazine and a series of N-oxides and complete assignments established. N-Oxidation at any position resulted in large upfield shifts of the corresponding N-1 and N-2 resonances and downfield shifts for N-4 with the exception of the 3-amino-1,2,4-benzotriazine 1-oxide in which a small upfield shift of N-4 was observed. Density functional GIAO calculations of the 15N and 13C chemical shifts [B3LYP/6-31G(d)//B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,p)] gave good agreement with experimental values confirming the assignments. The combination of 13C and 15N NMR provides an unambiguous method for assigning the 1H and 13C resonances of N-oxides of 1,2,4-benzotriazines.     

Trends in chemical shift dispersion in fullerene derivatives. Local strain affects the magnetic environment of distant fullerene carbons

13C NMR chemical shift assignments for 1,2-C60H2 (1) and a series of 13C-labeled fullerene derivatives with three-, four-, and five-membered annulated rings (2-4) were assigned using 2D INADEQUATE spectroscopy and examined for trends that correspond to the changes in strain in the fullerene cage. Chemical shifts of equivalent carbons from 1-4 show that eight carbons trend downfield (carbons 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15, 16, 17) and the remaining six carbons (4, 6, 10, 12, 13, 14) trend upfield with increasing ring size. While the average chemical shift is nearly constant, the dispersion is greatest when the local strain is the least, in 1,2-C60H2 (1). 13C chemical shifts are not well correlated with trends in ring size, with strain as measured by the pyramidalization angle of nearby carbons, or with the geometry of the fullerene cage. We interpret the results as evidence that subtle geometrical changes lead to modulation of the strength of ring currents near the site of addition and, in turn, the magnetic field generated by these ring currents affects the chemical shift of carbons on the far side of the fullerene core. These results highlight ring currents as being critically important to the determination of 13C chemical shifts in fullerene derivatives.     

Complete and unambiguous assignments of 1H and 13C chemical shifts of new arylamino derivatives of ortho-naphthofuranquinones

Six new nor-beta-lapachones have been synthesized from reaction of 3-bromo-nor-beta-lapachone with arylamines. These derivatives have potent anticancer properties against several cell lines. Here, we report complete unambiguous assignments of (1)H and (13)C chemical shifts of the new compounds. The assignments were made using a combination of one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques ((1)H, (13)C, (1)H-(1)H COSY, (1)H-(13)C HSQC, and (1)H-(13)C HMBC).     

Homo- and methano[60]fullerenes with chiral attached moieties--1H and 13C NMR chemical shift assignments and diastereotopicity effects

(1)H and (13)C NMR chemical shift predictions of homo- and methano[60]fullerenes containing chiral centers in attached fragment were made using the two-dimensional NMR technique (HH COSY, (1)H-(13)C HSQC and HMBC) and the quantum chemistry GIAO calculation method in the PBE/3ζ approach. The influence of a chiral substituent on the (13)C chemical shifts of diastereotopic fullerene carbons was estimated by comparing the calculated and experimental (13)C NMR spectra. The resonances of the fullerene carbons in α-, β- and δ-positions relative to the position of the substituent exhibit the greatest diastereotopic splitting.

1H, 13C and 77Se NMR study of tetraselenafulvalene derivatives supported by novel H(Se)C and H(C)Se triple-resonance experiments at natural abundance

A series of substituted tetraselenafulvalenes (TSeFs) was studied in solution using 1H, 13C and 77Se NMR spectroscopy. Chemical shifts and heteronuclear coupling constant values were determined and assigned. Novel two-dimensional H(Se)C and H(C)Se triple-resonance correlation experiments were applied at natural abundance in order to accomplish 13C and 77Se signal assignments. Using this approach, all the signals were unambiguously assigned and atom connectivity was established in the studied TSeF derivatives. These experiments, allowing signal assignments of quaternary carbons, may find wide application in the study of substituted TSeF and other organoselenium compounds. To the best of our knowledge, triple-resonance experiments with proton detection have been applied to organoselenium compounds for the first time.     

Complete assignments of the 1H and 13C resonances of 40-epi-(N1-tetrazolyl)-rapamycin and revised 13C assignments for rapamycin

Complete 1H and 13C assignments of 40-epi-(N1-tetrazolyl)-rapamycin (ABT-578) in DMSO-d6 were made using 1H, 13C, DQCOSY, ROESY, TOCSY, HSQC and HMBC spectra. Comparing the assignments with those of rapamycin showed that in the published 13C assignments of rapamycin in DMSO-d6 the shifts for C-12 and C-42 have been interchanged, as well as the shifts for C-1 and C-8.     

Formation, isolation, spectroscopic properties, and calculated properties of some isomers of C(60)H(36)

Isomers of C(60)H(36) and He@C(60)H(36) have been synthesized by the Birch or dihydroanthracene reduction of C(60) and isolated by preparative high-pressure liquid chromatography. (3)He, (13)C, and (1)H NMR spectroscopic properties were then determined. A comparison of experimental chemical shifts against those computed using density functional theory (B3LYP) with polarized triple- and double-zeta basis sets for He and C,H, respectively, allowed provisional assignment of structure for several isomers to be made. Theoretical calculations have also been carried out to identify low-energy structures. The transfer hydrogenation method using dihydroanthracene gives a major C(60)H(36) isomer and a minor C(60)H(36) isomer with C(3) symmetry as determined by the (13)C NMR spectrum of C(60)H(36) and the (3)He NMR spectrum of the corresponding sample of (3)He@C(60)H(36). In view of the HPLC retention times and the (3)He chemical shifts observed for the Birch and dihydroanthracene reduction products, the two isomers generated by the latter procedure can be only minor isomers of the Birch reduction. A significant energy barrier apparently exists in the dihydroanthracene reduction of C(60) for the conversion of the C(3) and C(1) symmetry isomers of C(60)H(36) to the T symmetry isomer previously predicted by many calculations to be among the most stable C(60)H(36) isomers. Many of the (1)H NMR signals exhibited by C(60)H(36) (and C(60)H(18), previously reported) are unusually deshielded compared to "ordinary" organic compounds, presumably because the unusual structures of C(60)H(36) and C(60)H(18) result in chemical shift tensors with one or more unusual principal values. Calculations clearly show a relationship between exceptionally deshielded protons beta to a benzene ring in C(60)H(18) and C(60)H(36) and relatively long C-C bonds associated with these protons. The additional information obtained from 1D and 2D (1)H NMR spectra obtained at ultrahigh field strengths (up to 900 MHz) will serve as a critical test of chemical shifts to be obtained from future calculations on different C(60)H(36) isomers.     

Structural and spectral assignment of a new diterpenoid isolated from Ballota undulata and a complete (1)H and (13)C NMR data assignment for three other structurally related compounds

The structure of 3beta-hydroxyballotinone, a new labdane diterpenoid isolated from Ballota undulata, has been established by NMR spectroscopic studies. In addition, complete and unambiguous assignments of the (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra of three other already known labdanes (ballotinone, ballonigrin and ballonigrinone) isolated from the same source have been achieved. The assignments are based on 2D shift-correlated (1)H--(1)H COSY, (1)H--(13)C gHSQC [(1)J(C,H)] and (1)H--(13)C gHMBC [(n)J(C,H) (n = 2 and 3)], and NOE experiments.     

Complete assignments of 1H and 13C NMR data for ten phenylpiperazine derivatives

Ten phenylpiperazine derivatives were designed and synthesized. The first complete assignments of (1)H and (13)C NMR chemical shifts for these phenylpiperazine derivatives were achieved by means of 1D and 2D NMR techniques, including (1)H-(1)H COSY, HSQC and HMBC spectra.     

The carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of some α-spirocyclopropyl ketones and related cyclohex-2-en-1-ones and 2-ethylidenecyclohex-3-en-1-ones

The ¹³C NMR spectra of a series of β,γ-unsaturated α-spirocyclopropylcyclohexanones and saturated α-spirocyclopropylcycloalkanones have been analyzed and compared with the spectra of diethyl cyclopropanedicarboxylate and a corresponding spiro acylal. The chemical shifts of the cyclopropane methylene carbons are correlated with spiroactivation of the cyclopropane ring to nucleophilic attack. In the case of the saturated spiro ketones these chemical shifts can also be correlated with their photochemistry. In the SFORD spectra of the spiro ketones the signals of the cyclopropane methylene carbons appear as complex multiplets: this is attributed to second-order coupling resulting from strong coupling between the vicinal cyclopropane protons. The ¹³C NMR spectra of a series of related cyclohex-2-en-1-ones and 2-ethylidenecyclohex-3-en-1-ones have also been analyzed; the chemical shift assignments for the latter corroborate the configurational assignments made on the basis of ¹H NMR spectroscopy.

Long-range deuterium isotope effects on (13)C chemical shifts of intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded N-substituted 3-(cycloamine)thiopropionamides or amides: a case of electric field effects

A series of intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded N-substituted 3-(piperidine, morpholine, N-methylpiperazine)thiopropionamides and some corresponding amides have been studied with special emphasis on hydrogen bonding. The compounds have been selected in order to vary and to minimize the N...N distance. Geometries, charge distributions, and chemical shifts of these compounds are obtained from DFT-type BP3LYP calculations. 1H and 13C 1D and 2D NMR experiments were performed to obtain H,H coupling constants, 13C chemical shifts assignments, and deuterium isotope effects on13C chemical shifts. Variable-temperature NMR studies and 2D exchange NMR spectra have been used to describe the rather complicated conformational behavior mainly governed by the ring flipping of the piperidine (morpholine) rings and intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Unusual long-range deuterium isotope effects on 13C chemical shifts are observed over as far as eight bonds away from the site of deuteriation. The isotope effects are related to the N...N distances, thus being related to the hydrogen bonding and polarization of the N-H bond. Arguments are presented showing that the deuterium isotope effects on 13C chemical shifts originate in electric field effects.     

Experimental (FT-IR, FT-Raman, H, C NMR) and theoretical study of alkali metal 2-aminonicotinates

The influence of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and cesium on the electronic system of 2-aminonicotinic acid (2-ANA) was studied by the methods of molecular spectroscopy. The vibrational (FT-IR, FT-Raman) and NMR (¹H and ¹³C) spectra of 2-aminonicotinic acid and its alkali metal salts were recorded. Characteristic shifts and changes in intensities of bands along the metal series were observed. The changes of chemical shifts of protons (¹H NMR) and carbons (¹³C NMR) in the series of studied alkali metal 2-aminonicotinates (2-AN) were observed too.Optimized geometrical structures of the studied compounds were calculated by the B3LYP method using the 6-311++G** basis set. Aromaticity indices, atomic charges, dipole moments and energies were also calculated. The theoretical chemical shifts in ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra and theoretical wavenumbers and intensities of IR and Raman spectra were determined. The calculated parameters were compared to the experimental characteristics of the studied compounds.     

1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectral characterization of twenty-seven 1,2-diaryl-(4E)-arylidene-2-imidazolin-5-ones

1H, 13C and 15N NMR chemical shifts and couplings (n)J(H,C) in DMSO-d(6) at 30 degrees C have been determined for 1,2-diaryl-(4E)-arylidene-2-imidazolin-5-one derivatives 1-27. Their chemical shift assignments are based on PFG DQF 1H,1H COSY, PFG 1H,13C HMQC as well as PFG 1H,13C and 1H,15N HMBC experiments. For compounds 1-10 including aryl fluorine substituent(s) also the couplings (n)J(F,C) (n = 1 - 4) are reported.     

Complete 1H and 13C NMR assignments of clerodane diterpenoids of Salvia splendens

Unambiguous and complete assignments of 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts for five clerodane diterpenes, four of them isolated from Salvia splendens (salviarin, splendidin and splenolides A and B) and one obtained by acetylation of splenolide A, are presented. The assignments are based on 2D shift-correlated [1H,1H-COSY, 1H,13C-gHSQC-1J(C,H) and 1H,13C-gHMBC-nJ(C,H) (n=2 and 3)] and nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) experiments. The conformation of the rings of these compounds is supported by the 3J(H,H) values and NOE results.     

1H and 13C NMR assignments and X-ray structures for three monocyclic benzoannelated dilactam polyethers

Three monocyclic polyether dilactams, 17,18-dihydro-5H, 9H-dibenzo[e,n]1,4,10,7,13trioxadiazacyclopentadecine-6,10(7H,11H)-dione (1); 9,10,20,21-tetrahydro-5H, 12H-dibenzo[e,q]1,4,10,13,7,16tetraoxadiazacyclooctadecine-6, 13(7H,14H)-dione (2); and 6,7,9,10-tetrahydro-16H, 20H-dibenzo[h,q]1,4,7,13, 10,16tetraoxadiazacyclooctadecine-17, 21(18H,22H)-dione (3) were isolated during the synthesis of several benzoannelated cryptands. The complete assignments of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 1, 2 and 3 in CDCl3 were made using gCOSY, gHMBC, gHMQC, HMQC, HSQC, and NOESY 1D techniques. The ortho (H2) benzene protons show significant downfield shifts (1.16-1.43 ppm) that are consistent with an exodentate orientation for the amide carbonyl groups. The X-ray crystal structures of 1, 2 and 3 show that the carbonyl groups adopt an exodentate conformation in the solid state.     

Dual substituent parameter analysis of the ethyl and ipso 13C n.m.r. chemical shifts of some ring-substituted ethylbenzenes and ethylnaphthalenes

The natural abundance ¹³C n.m.r. spectra of a series of para-substituted ethylbenzenes, 4-substituted-1-ethylnaphthalenes and a limited series of 6-substituted-2-ethylnaphthalenes have been examined at low dilution in deuterochloroform solvent. The ethyl carbons and C_ipso in the phenyl series (i.e. have been assigned, and substituent chemical shifts for these carbons calculated and analysed by the Dual Substituent Parameter treatment. (Chemical shifts of all ring carbons have been obtained, but not assigned). Generally speaking, electron-withdrawing substituents lead to positive (i.e. downfield) substituent chemical shifts for CH ₂ and negative substituent chemical shifts for C H₃, i.e. ‘normal’ and ‘inverse’ behaviour respectively. C_ipso in the phenyl series exhibits a ‘normal’ dependence. The dependences of the various substituent chemical shifts on inductive and resonance parameters are discussed, and compared with the behaviour of side chain carbons in other substituted benzene systems.     

Complete 1H and 13C assignments of fluorinated analogs of dehydroepiandrosterone

The complete assignments of all 1H and 13C chemical shifts were made for the fluorinated dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) analog fluasterone, 2, and two potential in vivo metabolites 3 and 4. The assignments were made using a combination of one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques (1H, 13C, gDQCOSY, gHSQC, gHMBC). Once the proton chemical shifts were assigned, the stereochemistry of the two hydroxylated analogs was determined using 2D ROESY experiments.     

Complete assignments of 1H and 13C NMR data for 10 phenylethanoid glycosides

Ten phenylethanoid glycosides, including two new ones, isolated from the aerial parts of the mangrove plant Acanthus ilicifolius were identified.
