A new eremophilanolide from Senecio sinuatus Gilib

From the hexane extracts of Senecio sinuatus roots, the new 3beta-angeloyloxy-6beta-hydroxyeremophil-1(10)-en-8beta,12-olide (3), along with the known compounds 3beta-angeloyloxy-6beta-hydroxyeremophil-1(10)-ene (1), 3beta-senecioyloxy-6beta-hydroxyeremophil-1(10)-ene (2), and 3beta-angeloyloxy-6beta,8alpha-dihydroxyeremophil-1(10)-en-8beta,12-olide (4), were isolated. Complete 1H and 13C NMR chemical shift assignments of 1-4 were achieved using one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques, including gHMQC and gHMBC experiments. A Monte Carlo search, followed by B3LYP/6-31G*DFT calculation, provided the theoretical conformations of the eremophilane rings, which were in agreement with results derived from 1H-1H NMR coupling constant analysis, and confirmed by NOESY experiments.     

6/7Li NMR study of the Li1-zNi1+zO2 phases

A series of Li1-zNi1+zO2 materials have been synthesised by the coprecipitation route. An X-ray diffraction study was carried out on these materials using the Rietveld method to determine the departure from the ideal stoichiometry z, which ranges from 0 to 0.138. The actual Li/Ni ratio was also checked by chemical analyses using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) for each sample. The stoichiometric sample (z approximately 0) was obtained using a 15% Li excess. (6/7)Li NMR results from LiNiO2 (z approximately 0) show that the asymmetric shape of the NMR signal is due to anisotropy. Calculations give evidence that the paramagnetic dipolar interaction from the electron spins carried by Ni is anisotropic but does not completely explain the experimental anisotropy. (6)Li MAS NMR (magic angle spinning NMR) experiments and temperature standardisation NMR measurements unambiguously assign the isotropic position at +726 ppm. The static-echo NMR spectra of the non-stoichiometric Li1-zNi1+zO2 phases also exhibit an asymmetric shape whose width increases with the departure from the ideal stoichiometry z. (6/7)Li static and MAS NMR show that the 2zNi(2+) ions thus formed modify the dipolar interaction within the materials and also affect the Fermi contact interaction, since a distribution of Li environments is observed using (6)Li NMR for non-stoichiometric samples.     

Complete assignments of 1H and 13C NMR data for seven arylnaphthalide lignans from Justicia procumbens

Three new arylnaphthalide lignans named 6'-hydroxy justicidin A (1), 6'-hydroxy justicidin B (2) and 6'-hydroxy justicidin C (3) have been isolated from the whole plant of Justicia procumbens, together with four known ones, neojusticin A (4), chinensinaphthol methyl ester (5), isodiphyllin (6) and taiwanin C (7). The complete assignments of 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts for the new lignans and the 13C NMR chemical shifts for the known lignans were obtained for the first time by means of 2D NMR techniques, including HSQC and HMBC.     

Combinatorial solution-phase synthesis of alkyl (1S*,2S*,3R*,5R*,6R*)-1-alkyl-3-aryl-6-benzoylamino-1-hydroxy-7- oxo-5-phenylhexahydropyrazolo[1,2-a]pyrazole-2-carboxylates

Combinatorial solution-phase cycloadditions of (1Z,4R*,5R*)-4-benzoylamino-5-phenylpyrazolidin-3-on-1-azomethine imines 3 to beta-keto esters 4 afforded a library of 26 bicyclic pyrazolidinones 5 in 6-89% yields and in 14-100% de. All products were isolated in >90% purity according to 1H NMR, and 25 of them were analytically pure. The structures of cycloadducts were confirmed by NMR and X-ray diffraction. Most of the products were isolated as mixtures of the major (1S*,2S*,3R*,5R*,6R*)-epimers 5 and the minor (1R*,2S*,3R*,5R*,6R*)-epimers 6. Epimerization of cycloadducts 5/6 at the anomeric position 1 in solution was confirmed by 1H NMR.     

Characterization of a chiral enolate aggregate and observation of 6Li-1H scalar coupling

A chiral enolate aggregate 1 containing a lithium enolate and a chiral lithium amide was systematically investigated by various NMR techniques. (1)H and (13)C DOSY at 25 and -78 degrees C provide its solution structure, aggregation number, and formula weight. Multiple 2D (6)Li NMR techniques, such as (6)Li-(6)Li EXSY, (6)Li-(1)H HOESY, were utilized to investigate its stereochemical structure. The configuration of the enolate in complex 1 was confirmed by (6)Li-(1)H HOESY and trapping with TMS-Cl. A unique (6)Li-(1)H coupling through the Li-N-C-H network was observed. This scalar coupling was corroborated by (6)Li-(1)H HMQC, deuterium labeling experiments, and selective (1)H decoupling (6)Li NMR. The stereostructure of 1 provides a model for the origin of enantioselectivity of chiral lithium amide-induced enolate addition reactions.     

NMR study of the reversible trapping of SF6 by cucurbit[6]uril in aqueous solution

The complexation of sulfur hexafluoride (SF(6)), a highly potent greenhouse gas, by cucurbit[6]uril (CB) was studied at various temperatures in Na(2)SO(4) aqueous solutions by (19)F and (1)H NMR. CB shows a remarkable affinity for SF(6), suggesting that it is a suitable molecular container for the design of materials tailored for SF(6) trapping. At 298 K, the equilibrium constant characterizing the inclusion of SF(6) by CB is 3.1 x 10(4) M(-1) and the residence time of SF(6) within the CB cavity is estimated to be of the order of a few seconds. The enthalpic and entropic contributions to the free energy of encapsulation were determined and are discussed. This work also reports on the interest of SF(6) in the framework of the spin-spy methodology. The advantages and drawbacks of solution-state (19)F NMR of SF(6) with respect to (129)Xe NMR are discussed. SF(6) comes forward as a versatile and informative spin-spy molecule for probing systems in solution because its detection limit by (19)F NMR reaches the micromolar range with standard equipment and because quantitative integral measurements, relaxation time measurements, and demanding experiments, such as translational diffusion coefficient measurements, are easily carried out in addition to chemical shift measurements. Solution-state (19)F NMR of SF(6) emerges as a promising alternative to (129)Xe NMR for probing cavities and for other applications relying on the encapsulation of an NMR active gaseous probe.     

Mixed dimer and mixed trimer complexes of nBuLi and a chiral lithium amide

Multinuclear and multidimensional NMR spectroscopy have shown that lithium (S)-N-isopropyl-O-methyl-valinol (1-[6Li]) exists in a mixed 2:1 complex with nBu[6Li], (1-[6Li])2/nBu[6Li], in non-coordinating solvents such as hexane or toluene. A 6Li,1H-HOESY NMR spectrum indicates that the complex is a cyclic trimer with a large distance between the di-coordinated lithium and the carbanion of nBu[6Li]. Such arrangements are present in the solid state as previously reported by Williard and Sun. The exchange of lithium atoms within the trimer is slow at -33 degrees C. The exchange barrier (deltaG++) was determined to be 14.7 kcal x mol(-1) from quantitative 6Li,6Li-EXSY spectra. Addition of diethyl ether results in the formation of mixed dimers of (1-[6Li])/nBu[6Li], tetramers of nBu[6Li], and homodimers (1-[6Li])2. The apparent equilibrium constant of the mixed dimer was determined from the 6Li NMR integrals as K = 7.     

Synthesis and Chemical Shifts Calculation of a-Acyloxycarboxamides Derived from Indane-l,2,3-trione by DFT and HF Methods

α-Acyloxycarboxamides are synthesized from three-component Passerini reaction between indane-1,2,3-trione, isocyanides, and thiophenecarboxylic acids in quantitative yields. The structures of the final products were confirmed by IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The B3LYP/HF calculations for computation of 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts have been carried out for the title compounds at the 6-311+G** and 6-311++G** basis set levels within GIAO and CSGT approaches. Predicted 1H and 13C NMR che-mical shifts have been assigned and compared with experimental 1H and 13C NMR spectra and they are supported each other.

Structural assignment of regioisomeric 3-[2- or 5-anilino-2-(alkylamino)phenyl]propanoic acids, 2H-1,4-benzothiazin-3(4H)-ones and 2,3-dihydro-1,5-benzothiazepin-4(5H)-ones by 1D NOE and gHMBC NMR techniques

The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of compounds 1-11 and 16-22 in CDCl3 and DMSO-d6 solutions allowed structural assignment to regioisomers 1/5 and 2/6 and their regioselective cyclization products 16-18 utilizing one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques (APT, DEPT, NOE difference, COSY, NOESY, HETCOR and gHMQC, gHMBC). Temperature-dependent 1H NMR spectra of 8-anilino-5-(4-methyl-2-pentyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,5-benzothiazepin-4(5H)-one (18) indicated a free energy of activation (deltaG++) of ca 17 kcal mol(-1) for interconversion between rotamers. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 20 and 22 containing two chiral centers exhibit duplication of several signals, indicating the existence of two diastereomeric forms. The structure of 4 was unambiguously confirmed by x-ray crystallography.

6-(Bromomethyl)-4-methoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2-ol(compound 9) was synthesized from 6-methylpyrimidine-2,4-diol(compound 1) through the crucial steps of 6-methyl alkylating and intramolecular cyclization. The assignment of the structure of compound 9 was performed by its spectral data, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, HMBC, and HRMS spectra.     

NMR and X-ray crystallographic studies of the conformation of a 3,4,6-triphenyl-delta-lactone.

1-Oxa-3S,4S,6R-triphenyl-2-cyclohexanone and its enantiomer were synthesized, and the structure was determined by NMR and X-ray crystallography. The X-ray crystal structure showed that the delta-lactone adopts a boat conformation in the solid. The X-ray data showed a shortened C-O bond between the carbonyl carbon and the ether oxygen, consistent with delocalization involving the ester group. (1)H and (13)C NMR measurements in acetone-d(6) showed that the lactone is biased in favor of a boat conformation. In the less polar solvent chloroform-d(1), changes in the (1)H NMR coupling constants indicate a shift in the equilibrium in favor of a less rigid twist-boat conformation. The IR absorption of the lactone carbonyl at 1740 cm(-)(1) would suggest a half-chair conformation inconsistent with the dominance of the boat forms shown by NMR and X-ray.

Preparation of Novel Side-chain Pseudopolyrotaxanes Consisting of Cucurbituril[6] and Polyamine Salts

Pseudorotaxane monomer （VBCB） containing cucurbitutil[6] （CB[6]） and N^1-（4-vinylbenzyl）-1,4-diaminobutane dihydrochloride （VBDADC） is obtained by self-assembly of cucurbituril[6] with VBDADC in water and then polymerized using potassium persulfate （KPS） as initiator to give novel water-soluble side-chain cucurbituril[6]-based pseudopolyrotaxane（PVBCB）. The chemical structures of PVBCB, VBCB and VBDADC are confirmed by ^1H NMR,^13C NMR spectra and elemental analysis. In VBCB, CB[6] is localized aliphatic group of the side chain and the molar ratio of CB[6] to VBDAC is 1：1 .     

1H and 13C NMR data for C-6 substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-1-carboxylates

The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes with various oxygenated substituents at C-6 were assigned using 1D (DEPT) and 2D (COSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOESY) experiments.

Beta-silyl-substituted silaadamantyl,silabicyclo[2.2.2]octyl,silanorbornyl, and 1-silacyclohexyl cations. A theoretical (DFT and GIAO NMR) study

Parent 1-silaadamant-1-yl (1+) and a series of mono-beta-silyl-substituted- (2-Me+, 2-F+, 2-Cl+, 2-Br+), bis-beta-silyl-substituted- (3-Me+), and tris-beta-silyl-substituted (4-Me+)-1-silaadamant-1-yl cations were studied by the DFT method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level and by GIAO NMR at the B3LYP/ 6-31G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level. The geometries, relative energies, NMR chemical shifts, and charge distribution in the bridgehead silylium ions are discussed and compared. The magnitude of the beta-silyl effect (the Si-C-Si+ hyperconjugation) is gauged as a function of structure. Related model studies on the silabicyclo[2.2.2]octyl (5+, 6+, 5a+, and 6a+), silanorbornyl (7+ and 8+), and silacyclohexyl cations (9+ and 10+) were carried out in which the effect of beta-silyl substitution on geometry, stability, and NMR chemical shifts was probed. The acyclic model Me3Si-CH2-Si+(Me)2 (11+) was used to gauge the influence of the twist angle between the p-orbital at Si+ and the C-Si bond on relative stability and on the changes in the 29Si NMR chemical shifts. Finally, interaction of 1+ with H2O and MeOH and 2-Me+ with H2O was also examined. The resulting optimized structures (12+, 13+, and 14+) and the computed NMR chemical shifts are most compatible with the formation of silaoxonium ions.     

FT-IR and NMR investigation of 1-phenylpiperazine: a combined experimental and theoretical study

FT-IR and (1)H, (13)C, DEPT, COSY, NOESY, HETCOR, INADEQUATE NMR spectra of 1-phenylpiperazine (pp) have been reported for the first time except for its (1)H NMR spectrum. The vibrational frequencies and (1)H, (13)C NMR chemical shifts of pp (C(10)H(14)N(2)) have been calculated by means of the Hartree-Fock (HF) and Becke-Lee-Yang-Parr (BLYP) or Becke-3-Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) density functional methods with 6-31G(d) and 6-31G(d,p) basis sets, respectively. Comparison between the experimental and the theoretical results indicates that density functional B3LYP method is superior to the scaled HF and BLYP approach for predicting vibrational frequencies and NMR properties.
