A new family of heavy transition metal coordination compounds and its application,I. Design,synthesis and characterization of volatile organohafnium precursors

The first three representatives of a new family of volatile organohafnium compounds suitable as metallo-organic chemical vapour deposition precursors were synthesized. A combination of cyclopentadienyl and alkoxo-ligands with a bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanc framework was used. Volatility at relatively low temperatures for hafnium compounds was found and the precursors were characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods (IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, mass spectrometry and mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectroscopy). The outlook for use in hafnium functional materials synthesis was derived from the fragmentation data.     

H NMR, C NMR and mass spectral studies of some Schiff bases derived from 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole

Heterocyclic Schiff bases derived from 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole and different substituted aromatic aldehydes are prepared and subjected to ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and mass spectral analyses. ¹H NMR spectra in DMSO exhibit a sharp singlet within the 9.35–8.90 ppm region which corresponds to the azomethine proton. The position of this signal is largely dependent on the nature of the substituents on the benzal moiety. It is observed that the shape, position and the integration value of the signal of the aromatic proton of the triazole ring (⁵C) are clearly affected by the rate of exchange, relaxation time, concentration of solution as well as the solvent used. ¹³C NMR is taken as substantial support for the results reached from ¹H NMR studies. The mass spectral results are taken as a tool to confirm the structure of the investigated compounds. The base peak (100%), mostly the M-1 peak, indicates the facile loss of hydrogen radical. The fragmentation pattern of the unsubstituted Schiff base is taken as the general scheme. Differences in the other schemes result from the effect of the electronegativity of the substituents attached to the aromatic ring.     

Synthese und Eigenschaften von 1,1,3,3-Tetrakis(pentafluorphenyl)-cyclo-di(silthian) und verwandten Verbindungen

Summary The synthesis of tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)-cyclo-di(silthiane) and related compounds by reacting organosubstituted silanes with sulfur or hexamethyldisilthiane is reported The compounds are characterized by analysis, by relative molecular mass, by¹H,¹³C,¹⁹F, and²⁹Si NMR spectroscopy, and by mass and IR spectra, respectively. Two²⁹Si NMR signals of different intensity found for compounds with two different organic substituents on silicon are explained by the existence of diastereomers.

     

Theoretical Studies on the Infrared Vibrational Spectra ,Thermodynamic Properties and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectra for Polynitro-1,3-bishomopentaprismanes

Based on the optimized molecular geometries at the DFT‐B3LYP/6‐31G?? level, IR spectra, thermodynamic functions, as well as ¹³C and ¹H NMR chemical shifts, were obtained and discussed for polynitro‐1,3‐bishomo‐pentaprismanes (PNBPP). The comparison of the calculated IR frequencies and NMR chemical shifts showed considerable agreements with the available experimental results. IR regions, ¹³C and ¹H NMR chemical shifts of PNBPP were assigned. The relationships of the thermodynamic functions with temperature and the number of nitro groups were discussed, and it was found that the latter showed a good group additivity rule. These calculated data and discussions would be helpful for the further study of PNBPP.

Isolation of (R)-(+)-Pulegone from the European Pennyroyal Mint, Mentha Pulegium

Students obtain, via steam distillation, pennyroyal essential oil that is analyzed by capillary gas chromatography—mass spectrometry. TLC experiments establish conditions for preparative scale purification of the major oil component via flash column chromatography. The terpene obtained, (R)-(+)-pulegone, is characterized spectroscopically, employing at a minimum mass spectral molecular ion and fragmentation patterns, IR, and 300-MHz ¹H NMR. Optionally, ¹³C and 2-D correlation NMR spectra can be utilized to enable unambiguous assignment of all C and H resonances. The project has been successfully incorporated into our upper-level advanced organic chemistry laboratory. The experiment provides opportunities for instruction in and experience with a wide variety of chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. Further, it centers on a plant and natural product well suited for the discussion of contemporary health care issues surrounding nontraditional/alternative medicine and herbal remedies.     

Cinnamoylacetanilides and Their Metal Chelates

A new series of β-ketoanilides, in which the keto group attached to an olefinic linkage, have been synthesized by the reaction of acetoacetanilide with p-substituted benzaldehydes (4-methoxybenzaldehyde, 4-ethoxybenzaldehyde, 4-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde) under specified conditions. The existence of these β-ketoanilides predominantly in the intramolecularly hydrogen bonded enol forms has been well demonstrated from their IR, ¹H NMR and mass spectral data. Details on the formation of [ML₂] complexes of these compounds with Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) and their nature of bonding were discussed on the basis of analytical, IR, ¹H NMR and mass spectral data.

The title compound 1 was prepared and allowed to react with a series of nitrogen nucleophiles to afford the quinazoline and quinazolinone derivatives 2–12 and tetrazole derivative 13. The IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and mass spectra of all the synthesized compounds were discussed.     

The structure of hydantoins in solution and in the solid state

The results of NMR spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic studies are critically discussed with respect to the structure of hydantoins, their tautomerism, and their acidity. The imide NH proton of the preferred, nearly planar 2,4-imidazolidine-dione tautomer proved to be more acidic than the corresponding amide NH proton. Phenyl substituents at the ring nitrogen atoms and at C-5 are twisted from the plane of the hydantoin ring; in case ofortho substituents restricted rotation about the N-aryl bond was found and the barrier to rotation determined by dynamic NMR spectroscopy. For 5-benzyl substituents, afolded conformation of the two rings, due to intramolecular interactions, was found and for 5-exo-methylene substituted hydantoins the relevant E/Z isomerism at theexo-cyclic C, C double bond was studied. In addition, the¹H and¹³C chemical shifts of the hydantoins proved to excellently indicate the electronic distribution along the hydantoin ring moiety. Finally, the mass spectrometric fragmentation of the hydantoins is critically discussed.Dedicated to Prof. Rolf Borsdorf on the occasion of his 65th birthday.

Partial least squares modeling of combined infrared, H NMR and C NMR spectra to predict long residue properties of crude oils

Research has been carried out to determine the potential of partial least squares (PLS) modeling of mid-infrared (IR) spectra of crude oils combined with the corresponding ¹H and ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data, to predict the long residue (LR) properties of these substances. The study elaborates further on a recently developed and patented method to predict this type of information from only IR spectra. In the present study, PLS modeling was carried out for 7 different LR properties, i.e., yield long-on-crude (YLC), density (D_LR), viscosity (V_LR), sulfur content (S), pour point (PP), asphaltenes (Asph) and carbon residue (CR). Research was based on the spectra of 48 crude oil samples of which 28 were used to build the PLS models and the remaining 20 for validation. For each property, PLS modeling was carried out on single type IR, ¹³C NMR and ¹H NMR spectra and on 3 sets of merged spectra, i.e., IR + ¹H NMR, IR + ¹³C NMR and IR + ¹H NMR + ¹³C NMR. The merged spectra were created by considering the NMR data as a scaled extension of the IR spectral region. In addition, PLS modeling of coupled spectra was performed after a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the IR, ¹³C NMR and ¹H NMR calibration sets. For these models, the 10 most relevant PCA scores of each set were concatenated and scaled prior to PLS modeling. The validation results of the individual IR models, expressed as root-mean-square-error-of-prediction (RMSEP) values, turned out to be slightly better than those obtained for the models using single input ¹³C NMR or ¹H NMR data. For the models based on IR spectra combined with NMR data, a significant improvement of the RMSEP values was not observed neither for the models based on merged spectra nor for those based on the PCA scores. It implies, that the commonly accepted complementary character of NMR and IR is, at least for the crude oil and bitumen samples under study, not reflected in the results of PLS modeling. Regarding these results, the absence of sample preparation and the straightforward way of data acquisition, IR spectroscopy is preferred over NMR for the prediction of LR properties of crude oils at site.

The ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts of the adjacent methylene protons and carbons of both the sulfur atom and phthalimido nitrogen group were reasonably correlated using σ° values. The carbon-nitrogen and the carbon-sulfur bond fissions in alkaline and acidic media were discussed.

NMR- und schwingungsSpektroskopische Untersuchungen höherer Indiumtrialkyle

NMR and Vibrational Spectroscopic Investigations on Higher Indium Trialkyls Several isomeric indium tripentyles and trihexyles are synthesized by known methods. The chemical shifts δ of the ¹³C NMR spectra are used together with those of the corresponding alkanes for determining the increments Δδ(¹³C) = δ(InR₃)–δ(RH). By means of these increments and the Grant/Paul-method the chemical shifts δ(¹³C) of any indium trialkyl can be calculated. The vibrational spectra (IR and Raman) of most liquid trialkyls show very obvious rotameric splittings of the InC vibrations between 450–600 cm^?1. Both frequent conformations of the alkyl ligands with three and more C atoms consist of either a βH atom (notations P_H, S_HH, and T_HHH with vInC between 450–500 cm^?1) or a γC atom (P_C, S_CH, T_CHH with vInC between 550–600 cm^?1) in the transposition to indium. The InC stretching modes of all other more rare configurations can be observed between 500 to 550 cm^?1.
