NMR spectra of paramagnetic complexes of 1-vinylimidazole with iron group metals

The high-resolution ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of 1-vinylimidazole complexes with iron group metals were recorded. The contact coupling in these systems was established in the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra. The applicability of the NMR spectra transformed by long-range hyperfine coupling for elucidating the molecular structure of the ligand was shown. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

NMR Spectroscopy of Paramagnetic Complexes

Serviceable NMR spectra can, with a few exceptions^[1,6], be recorded for paramagnetic complexes in solution. These spectra provide information about the structure of the complexes and the distribution of the unpaired electrons, and hence also about reactive centers in the molecule. The elucidation of intermolecular and intramolecular exchange phenomena, e.g. the determination of ligand exchange rate constants, the determination of rotation barriers, and the detection of contact complexes in solution, or even of occupation equilibria of the electrons, is possible in this way. It can be seen, therefore, that NMR studies on paramagnetic complexes can be a rich source of information.     

47, 49Ti NMR spectra of half-sandwich titanium(IV) complexes

The 47, 49Ti chemical shifts, resonance line half-widths (Deltanu1/2) and energies of the first electronic charge-transfer transitions (lambdamax1.CT) of Cp'TiX3, where Cp' = eta5-C5H5 (Cp), eta5-C5H4Me (MeCp), eta5-C5HMe4 (Me4Cp), eta5-C5Me5 (Me5Cp), eta5-C5H4SiMe3 (SiCp), eta5-C5H4SnMe3 (SnCp) and eta5-C5H4SiMe2Cl (Si'Cp) and X = Cl, Br, I and OBut, half-sandwich complexes are reported. For the compounds studied, a direct linear relationship between delta(49Ti) and lambdamax1.CT was found.     

17O NMR spectra of alpha-diesters

17O NMR spectra of title compounds were measured at natural abundance in acetonitrile solutions. Intercarbonyl dihedral angles have been estimated by molecular mechanics, which show invariance except in one case. Because of this invariance, contrary to other alpha-dicarbonyl compounds, a correlation between chemical shifts and dihedral intercarbonyl angles could not be developed. Spectroscopic and computational results allowed us to evaluate other conformational features.     

Vanadium NMR of organovanadium complexes

A brief (and simplified) introduction into the background theory of NMR parameters (shielding, scalar coupling constants, and relaxation times) pertinent to the quadrupolar nucleus ⁵¹V is provided. General trends are discussed in the light of electronic and steric factors, medium effects, temperature and isotope effects influencing these parameters, in particular ⁵¹V shielding. Data are reported on vanadium complexes containing at least one vanadium-to-carbon bond, including alkyl, alkylidene and alkylidyne complexes, complexes containing η²- and η³-bonded ligands, carbonyl and isonitrile complexes, as well as η⁵-cyclopentadienyl and related vanadium compounds. DFT supported correlations between substituent effects and shielding, applicable to catalyst design, are included. The review focuses on solution NMR, but NMR in the crystalline solid state and in mesophases is also briefly addressed.     

Synthesis, mechanism and NMR spectra of lanthanide complexes with a novel unsymmetrical Schiff base

Owing to its two unsymmetrical-NH_2 groups sited on different terminals, 2, 6-diaminocaproic acid (lysine) was used as a reactant for synthesizing a novel unsymmetrical Schiff base with salicylaldehyde on one side and ovanillin on the other for the first time. It is a new way to synthesize such a special unsymmetrical Schiff base. It is named "hetero bis-Schiff base" for distinguishing it from others. The synthesis method, formation mechanism as well as twelve new lanthanide complexes with the above ligand are reported and discussed herein. They were characterized by elementary analysis, molar conductivity, IR-spectra and especially by ~1H and ~(13)C NMR spectra. The results obtained may provide a new promising method for synthesizing similar unsymmetrical Schiff bases and their complexes.     

1H and 13C NMR spectra of N-substituted morpholines

(1)H and (13)C NMR data for N-substituted morpholines 1-20 were measured using 1D (DEPT, 1D NOE difference) and 2D NMR spectroscopic methods including (1)H-(1)H COSY, long-range (1)H-(1)H COSY, NOESY, gHMBC and gHMQC experiments. At room temperature the (1)H NMR spectra of protonated compounds 2 and 9 show the chair conformation for the morpholine ring. Spin-spin coupling constants were deduced from the resolution-enhanced proton spectra.     

利用二维核磁共振方法研究取代茚基金属钛、锆配合物 的空间结构

通过^1H-^1HTOCSY和^1H-^1HNOESY谱对一系列新型结构的取代茚基钛、锆配合物进行了结构上的解析，并由此发现夹心结构的锆配合物中，两个茚环(或茚环和茂环)以及茚环上的取代基之间存在核的Overhauser效应，这对于茚环相对空间结构的判断提供了有效的证据。     

Copper(II) complexes with pyrazolyl-substituted nitronyl and imino nitroxides

It was established that the reactions of pyrazol-3-yl-substituted nitronyl nitroxide (HL¹) and pyrazol-3-yl-substituted imino nitroxide (HL³) with Cu(II) acetate lead to self-assembly of the Cu₄(OH)₂(OAc)₄(DMF)₂(L¹)₂ tetranuclear and Cu₂(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂(L³)₂ dinuclear complexes, respectively. The reaction of Cu(II) acetate with 5-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrazol-3-yl-substituted nitronyl nitroxide (HL²) gave unexpected solid Cu₂(H₂O)₂(L⁶)₂ · 2DMF, in which L⁶ is a deprotonated 5-carboxy-pyrazol-3-yl-substituted nitronyl nitroxide, formed as a result of cleavage of an ester bond in the starting HL². A similar transformation of the paramagnetic ligand was observed in the reaction of Cu(II) acetate with 5-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrazol-3-yl-substituted imino nitroxide (HL⁴). It led to the formation of Cu₂(DMF)₂(L⁷)₂, where L⁷ is deprotonated 2-(5-carboxy-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole 3-oxide. An X-ray diffraction study indicated that in Cu₄(OH)₂(OAc)₄(DMF)₂(L¹)₂ and Cu₂(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂(L³)₂, the L¹ and L³ paramagnetic ligands perform the bridging cyclic tridentate function, while in Cu₂(H₂O)₂(L⁶)₂ · 2DMF and Cu₂(DMF)₂(L⁷)₂, the paramagnetic L⁶ and diamagnetic L⁷ are bridging bicyclic tetradentate ligands. The magnetic behavior of complexes with coordinated nitronyl nitroxide – Cu₄(OH)₂(OAc)₄(DMF)₂(L¹)₂ and Cu₂(H₂O)₂(L⁶)₂ · 2DMF is dictated by the dominant antiferromagnetic exchange interactions, which is confirmed by quantum-chemical data. The magnetic susceptibility of Cu₂(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂(L³)₂ reflects the competition between the antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic components, of which the latter is due to electron coupling in the Cu(II) ← N=C–N ? O exchange channels. EPR data confirm the results received from static magnetic measurements for multispin solids.     

1H NMR spectroscopic studies of the conformational isomers of pyrrolidinofullerenes

Mixed bis-adduct derivatives of C60 containing a pyrrolidine and a malonate methano group were synthesized. Three regioisomers, the e', the trans-2, and the trans-3, were isolated and characterized. In-depth NMR studies of these methano-pyrrolidinofullerenes showed that the nitrogen inversion on the pyrrolidine moiety is not a fast event in the 1H NMR time scale as previously regarded. Solvent effects, variable temperature experiments, and protonation of the pyrrolidine nitrogen are addressed.     

Identification of Pt(II) and Pd(II) stereoisomeric complexes with aminobutyric acid by NMR and IR spectroscopy

Complexes of Pd(II) with aminobutyric acid AmH = NH₂CH(CH₂CH₃)COOH, namely, trans-[Pd(AmH)₂Cl₂] with monodentate (via the NH₂ group) AmH ligands and cis-, trans-Pd(Am)₂ with bidentate (via NH₂ and COO groups) ligands have been synthesized for the first time. Elemental analysis and IR and NMR spectroscopy were used to identify the synthesized compounds. The NMR spectra of the Pd(II) complexes were interpreted by comparing them with the NMR spectra of the analogous complexes of Pt(II). For Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes with aminobutyric acid used as examples, an approach to identification of diastereomer bis-aminoacid complexes in specimens with racemic aminoacids by NMR spectroscopy is demonstrated.     

NMR spectra and isotope analysis of hexaethyldistannane

The ¹³C-{¹H} and ¹¹⁹Sn-{¹H} NMR spectra of hexaethyldistannane were measured and analyzed using an iteration program for the calculation of the complete line shape with correction of a residual inhomogeneity of the magnetic field and phase distortions. Signals of 22 isotopomers containing magnetic isotopes of tin and carbon in different pairwise and triple combinations were identified, and their spectral parameters were determined. The content of isotopes ¹¹⁹Sn, ¹¹⁷Sn, and ¹¹⁵Sn in the molecule was determined with a high accuracy sufficient for the study of isotope effects in chemical reactions.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis of the New Silanediyldiphosphinite tBu2Si(OPPh2)2 and its Reactions with the Norbornadiene Complexes C7H8M(CO)4 (M = Cr,Mo, W). Crystal Structures of cis-M(CO)4[tBu2Si(OPPh2)2] (M = Cr,Mo)

Silanediyldiphosphinite tBu₂Si(OPPh₂)₂ 1 has been synthesised. 1 reacts with the norbornadiene complexes C₇H₈M(CO)₄ (M = Cr, Mo, W) to give six-membered chelate rings of the type cis-M(CO)₄[tBu₂Si(OPPh₂)₂] 2–4 . The crystal structures of the chromium and molybdenum complexes cis-Cr(CO)₄[tBu₂Si(OPPh₂)₂] 2 and cis-Mo(CO)₄[tBu₂Si(OPPh₂)₂] 3 have been determined. Both complexes crystallise in the triclinic system (space group P1 ) with unit cell parameters: ( 2 ) a = 1 093(3) pm, b = 1 477(5) pm and c = 1 542(5) pm; α = 108.4(2)°, b? = 103.87(11)° and b? = 104.57(10)°; U = 2.143(12) nm³; Z = 2; ( 3 ) a = 1 097.8(2) pm, b = 1 483.7(2) pm and c = 1 554.3(2) pm; α = 108.10(1)°, b? = 103.956(6)° and γ = 104.213(7)°; U = 2.1899(6) nm³; Z = 2. Both 2 and 3 consist of discrete, slightly distorted, octahedral monomers in which the six-membered chelate rings are essentially planar. In contrast, the conformations of the chelate rings found in crystal structures of analogous complexes vary from twist-boat to “chaise longue”.     

Triterpenoids fromAbies species 18. NMR spectra of abieslactone and its dehydro derivative

The contradictions in the interpretations of the¹³C NMR spectrum of a natural lanostanoid, abieslactone, and of the 1H NMR spectrum a its 9,11-dehydro derivative reported in the literature were resolved by two-dimensional¹H-¹H and¹³C-¹H (COSY) NMR spectroscopy.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademi Nauk.

Organometallic complexes in supported ionic-liquid phase (SILP) catalysts: a PHIP NMR spectroscopy study

para-Hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) NMR spectroscopy emerges as an efficient and robust method for on-line monitoring of gas-phase hydrogenation reactions. Here we report detailed investigations of supported ionic liquid phase (SILP) catalysts in a continuous gas-phase hydrogenation of propene with PHIP NMR spectroscopy. A relocation of the rhodium complex in the thin layer of ionic liquid in the SILP catalyst at the initial stage of the propene hydrogenation is demonstrated. PHIP NMR spectroscopy can provide profound insight into the evolution of SILP catalysts during hydrogenation reactions.     

The impact of ion pair association upon the 1H NMR spectra of cationic complexes akin to Grubbs catalysts

A reconsideration of the ¹H NMR spectra of cationic transition metal complexes exhibiting the features of cyclophanes on the basis of Mislow's classification of topic groups arrives at the conclusion that the spectral changes triggered by chiral counterions reflect an intracationic diastereotopication of enantiotopic protons rather than the existence of pairs of long‐lived diastereomeric ion pairs.

New POCOP-type pincer complexes of Nickel(II)

The pincer complex [(POCOP)Ni(NCMe)][OSO₂CF₃] (1: POCOP = {2,6-(i-Pr₂PO)₂C₆H₃}) undergoes an acetonitrile substitution reaction in the presence of CN(t-Bu), KCN, and KOCN to give the new complexes [(POCOP)Ni{CN(t-Bu)}][O₃SCF₃] and (POCOP)Ni(X) (X = CN and NCO). The Ni-CN derivative is also obtained from a gradual decomposition of the Ni-CN(t-Bu) derivative, while the aquo derivative [(POCOP)Ni(OH₂)][O₃SCF₃] was obtained from slow hydrolysis of (POCOP)Ni(OSO₂CF₃). All new complexes have been characterized spectroscopically and by X-ray crystallography. IR and solid state structural data indicate that Ni-L/X interactions are dominated by ligand-to-metal σ-donation; presence of little or no π-backbonding is consistent with the electrophilicity of the cationic fragment [(POCOP)Ni]⁺.
