A study of the 17O carbonyl chemical shifts in substituted benzaldehydes

An analysis of 17O carbonyl chemical shifts of 50 substituted benzaldehydes leads to an empirical equation, delta(cal)(17O) = 564.0 + (sigma)(delta)o + (sigma)(delta)m + (sigma)(delta)p + C, for calculating 17O chemical shifts. This equation is based on a linear regression analysis using 11 substituent parameters and leads to good conformity with the expected data.     

Saturated amine oxides: Part 8. Hydroacridines: Part 27. Effects of N-oxidation and of N-quaternization on the 15N NMR chemical shifts of N-methylpiperidine-derived mono-, bi-, and tricycloaliphatic tertiary amines

The (15)N chemical shifts of 13 N-methylpiperidine-derived mono-, bi- and tricycloaliphatic tertiary amines, their methiodides and their N-epimeric pairs of N-oxides were measured, and the contributions of specific structural parameters to the chemical shifts were determined by multilinear regression analysis. Within the examined compounds, the effects of N-oxidation upon the (15)N chemical shifts of the amines vary from +56 ppm to +90 ppm (deshielding), of which approx. +67.7 ppm is due to the inductive effect of the incoming N(+)--O(-) oxygen atom, whereas the rest is due to the additive shift effects of the various C-alkyl substituents of the piperidine ring. The effects of quaternization vary from -3.1 ppm to +29.3 ppm, of which approx. +8.9 ppm is due to the inductive effect of the incoming N(+)--CH(3) methyl group, and the rest is due to the additive shift effects of the various C-alkyl substituents of the piperidine ring. The shift effects of the C-alkyl substituents in the amines, the N-oxides and the methiodides are discussed.     

Application de la Résonance Magnétique de l'Azote 15 à l'Etude de la Délocalisation Electronique dans les Anilines,Aminopyridines et Enamines

¹⁵N spectroscopy at natural abundance has been applied to the study of electronic delocalization in the N? C bond of a series of substituted anilines. The relationships which offer a good way for evaluating the extent of electronic delocalization from ¹⁵N chemical shift data in anilines have been extended to aminopyridines, aminopyrimidines and nucleosides. The results obtained for C? N bonds in the case of anilines and aliphatic enamines are consistent with those concerning amides and analogous compounds. The validity of ΔG^≠-δ¹⁵N relationships for predicting π delocalization is discussed in terms of the relative contribution of δ- or π-density and non-bonded atom interactions to the total barrier height.     

Experimental and quantum-chemical studies of 1H, 13C and 15N NMR coordination shifts in Pd(II) and Pt(II) chloride complexes with quinoline, isoquinoline, and 2,2'-biquinoline

1H, 13C, and 15N NMR studies of platinide(II) (M=Pd, Pt) chloride complexes with quinolines (L=quinoline-quin, or isoquinoline-isoquin; LL=2,2'-biquinoline-bquin), having the general formulae trans-/cis-[ML2Cl2] and [M(LL)Cl2], were performed and the respective chemical shifts (delta1H, delta13C, delta15N) reported. 1H coordination shifts of various signs and magnitudes (Delta1Hcoord=delta1Hcomplex-delta1Hligand) are discussed in relation to the changes of diamagnetic contribution to the relevant 1H shielding constants. The comparison to the literature data for similar complexes containing auxiliary ligands other than chlorides exhibited a large dependence of delta1H parameters on electron density variations and ring-current effects (inductive and anisotropic phenomena). The influence of deviations from planarity, concerning either MN2Cl2 chromophores or azine ring systems, revealed by the known X-ray structures of [Pd(bquin)Cl2] and [Pt(bquin)Cl2], is discussed in respect to 1H NMR spectra. 15N coordination shifts (Delta15Ncoord=delta15Ncomplex-delta15Nligand) of ca. 78-100 ppm (to lower frequency) are attributed mainly to the decrease of the absolute value of paramagnetic contribution in the relevant 15N shielding constants, this phenomenon being noticeably dependent on the type of a platinide metal and coordination sphere geometry. The absolute magnitude of Delta15Ncoord parameter increased by ca 15 ppm upon Pd(II)-->Pt(II) replacement but decreased by ca. 15 ppm following trans-->cis transition. Experimental 1H, 13C, 15N NMR chemical shifts are compared to those quantum-chemically calculated by B3LYP/LanL2DZ+6-31G**//B3LYP/LanL2DZ+6-31G*, both in vacuo and in CHCl3 or DMF solution.     

Experimental and GIAO 15N NMR study of substituent effects in 1H-tetrazoles

A series of 1-aryl/alkyl-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazoles, 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles, and 1,5- and 2,5-disubstituted 1H-tetrazoles were studied by a combination of experimental NMR (natural abundance (15)N, (15)N/(1)H HMBC, and (13)C) and computational GIAO-NMR techniques to explore substituent effects on (15)N (and (13)C) NMR chemical shifts in the tetrazole (TA) moiety. Computed (15)N chemical shifts via GIAO-B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,p) calculations gave satisfactory results in comparison with experimental data. Whereas N-alkylation leads to large (15)N chemical shift changes, changes in the N(1)-aryl derivatives bearing diverse substituent(s) are generally small except for polar ortho-substituents (COOH, NO(2)). Large Δδ(15)N values were computed in N(1)-aryl derivatives for p-COH(2)(+) and p-OMeH(+) as extreme examples of electron-withdrawing substituents on a TA moiety.     

15N n.m.r.: Substituent effects on nitrogen chemical shifts in anilinium ions

¹⁵N chemical shifts were measured in a series of anilinium fluorosulfonate salts and compared with chemical shift data from a comparable series of ¹⁵N-enriched aniline derivatives. A smaller overall range of nitrogen chemical shifts was observed for the protonated aniline series compared with that for the unprotonated anilines and is attributed to the elimination of nitrogen lone pair delocalization in the former series. Further-more, it was found that the range of nitrogen chemical shifts in the protonated anilines is determined primarily by substituent electronic effects from the ortho ring position with almost negligible contributions from the para position.     

Statistical analysis of (13)C and (15)N NMR chemical shifts from GIAO/B3LYP/6-311 + + G** calculated absolute shieldings

The (13)C and (15)N absolute shieldings of 28 compounds have been calculated at the GIAO/B3LYP/6-311 + + G** level to complete a collection of data already published. This has allowed us to devise new equations relating delta and sigma for these nuclei based on 461 points ((13)C) and 70(72) points ((15)N).     

Experimental and quantum-chemical studies of 1H, 13C and 15N NMR coordination shifts in Pd(II) and Pt(II) chloride complexes with methyl and phenyl derivatives of 2,2'-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline

1H, 13C and 15N NMR studies of platinide(II) (M=Pd, Pt) chloride complexes with methyl and phenyl derivatives of 2,2'-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline [LL=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (dmbpy); 4,4'-diphenyl-2,2'-bipyridine (dpbpy); 4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (dmphen); 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (dpphen)] having a general [M(LL)Cl2] formula were performed and the respective chemical shifts (delta1H, delta13C, delta15N) reported. 1H high-frequency coordination shifts (Delta1Hcoord=delta1Hcomplex-delta1Hligand) were discussed in relation to the changes of diamagnetic contribution in the relevant 1H shielding constants. The comparison to literature data for similar [M(LL)(XX)], [M(LL)X2] and [M(LL)XY] coordination or organometallic compounds containing various auxiliary ligands revealed a large dependence of delta1H parameters on inductive and anisotropic effects. 15N low-frequency coordination shifts (Delta15Ncoord=delta 15Ncomplex-delta15Nligand) of ca 88-96 ppm for M=Pd and ca 103-111 ppm for M=Pt were attributed to both the decrease of the absolute value of paramagnetic contribution and the increase of the diamagnetic term in the expression for 15N shielding constants. The absolute magnitude of Delta15Ncoord parameter increased by ca 15 ppm upon Pd(II)-->Pt(II) transition and by ca 6-7 ppm following dmbpy-->dmphen or dpbpy-->dpphen ligand replacement; variations between analogous complexes containing methyl and phenyl ligands (dmbpy vs dpbpy; dmphen vs dpphen) did not exceed+/-1.5 ppm. Experimental 1H, 13C, 15N NMR chemical shifts were compared to those quantum-chemically calculated by B3LYP/LanL2DZ+6-31G**//B3LYP/LanL2DZ+6-31G*, both in vacuo and in DMSO or DMF solution.     

The impact of the pi-electron conjugation on (15)N, (13)C and (1)H NMR chemical shifts in push-pull benzothiazolium salts. Experimental and theoretical study

The (15)N as well as (13)C and (1)H chemical shifts of eight push-pull benzothiazolium iodides with various pi-conjugated chains between dimethylamino group and benzothiazolium moiety have been determined by NMR spectroscopy at the natural-abundance level of all nuclei in DMSO-d(6) solution. In general, the quaternary benzothiazolium nitrogen is more shielded [delta((15)N-3) vary between - 241.3 and - 201.9 ppm] with respect to parent 3-methylbenzothiazolium iodide [delta((15)N-3) = - 183.8 ppm], depending on the length and constitution of the pi-conjugated bridge. A larger variation in (15)N chemical shifts is observed on dimethylamino nitrogen, which covers the range of - 323.3 to - 257.2 ppm. The effect of pi-conjugation degree has a less pronounced influence on (13)C and (1)H chemical shifts. Experimental data are interpreted by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Reasonable agreement between theoretical and experimental (15)N NMR chemical shifts was found, particularly when performing calculations with hybrid exchange-correlation functionals. A better accord with experiment is achieved by utilizing a polarizable continuum model (PCM) along with an explicit treatment of hydrogen-bonding between the solute and the water present in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Finally, (13)C and (1)H NMR spectra were computed and analysed in order to compare them with available experimental data.     

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.     

Structure-NMR chemical shift relationships for novel functionalized derivatives of quinoxalines

(1)H, (13)C and (15)N NMR chemical shifts for a variety of novel quinoxalines were determined by different 2D methods and were calculated using the GIAO DFT approach. Comparison with experimental data shows good correlations in the case of (1)H, (13)C and (15)N chemical shifts. Different combinations of basis sets were tested. In non-polar solvents quinoxalines exist as dimers owing to strong hydrogen bonding. Calculations for dimers improve the correlation between experiment and theory. Additive empirical methods for estimating chemical shifts have drawbacks and have to be used with a great care for this type of compound.     

Nitrogen-15 magnetic resonance spectroscopy XVI—natural-abundance spectra of aromatic amines

The ¹⁵N chemical shifts of aniline, the toluidines, xylidines, and several halogen and oxygen substituted anilines have been measured at the natural abundance level of ¹⁵N. Substituent parameters obtained by multiple regression analysis show that the methyl group induces comparable upfield shifts at the ortho and para positions (2·37 and 2·55 ppm/methyl, respectively) and a small (0·77 ppm/methyl) upfield shift at the meta position. The chemical shifts correlate reasonably well with ¹⁹F shifts of similarly substituted fluorobenzenes, with C-1 of the anilines themselves and with Hammett sigma values. While the shifts of C-methyl substituted anilines do not correlate with the methyl resonances of corresponding polymethylbenzenes, those of the halo- and alkoxyanilines show a reasonable parallelism with corresponding ¹³C-methyl shifts. The results are interpreted in terms of possible modes of transmission of electron density in an alternating and additive manner through the sigma framework.     

N7‐ and N9‐substituted purine derivatives: a 15N NMR study

The ¹⁵N NMR chemical shifts of N⁷‐ and N⁹‐substituted purine derivatives were investigated systematically at the natural abundance level of the ¹⁵N isotope. The NMR chemical shifts were determined and assigned using GSQMBC, GHMBC, GHMQC and GHSQC experiments in solution. ¹⁵N cross‐polarization magic angle spinning data were recorded for selected compounds in order to study the principal values of the ¹⁵N chemical shifts. Geometric parameters obtained by using RHF/6–31G** and single‐crystal x‐ray structural analysis were used to calculate the chemical‐shielding constants (GIAO and IGLO) which were then used to assign the nitrogen resonances observed in the solid‐state NMR spectra and to determine the orientation of the principal components of the shift tensors.

Evaluation of protein 15N relaxation times by inverse Laplace transformation

Relaxation times (T1, T2, T1rho) are usually evaluated from exponential decay data by least-squares fitting methods. For this procedure, the integrals or amplitudes of signals must be determined, which can be laborious with large data sets. Moreover, the fitting requires a priori knowledge of the number of exponential components responsible for the decay. We have adapted inverse Laplace transformation (ILT) for the analysis of relaxation data. Exponential components are resolved with ILT to reciprocal space on their corresponding relaxation rate values. The ILT approach was applied to 3D linewidth-resolved 15N HSQC experiments to evaluate 15N T1 and T2 relaxation times of ubiquitin. The resulting spectrum is a true 3D spectrum, where the signals are separated by their 1H and 15N chemical shifts (HSQC correlations) and by their relaxation rate values (R1 or R2). From this spectrum, the relaxation times can be obtained directly with a simple peak-picking procedure.     

A 15N NMR investigation of a series of benzotriazinones and related antitumour heterocycles

A series of 3‐substituted 1,2,3‐benzotriazin‐4‐ones, 1 and 2, were synthesized by standard methods and the ¹⁵N NMR spectra were recorded. All spectra were obtained using the natural abundance of the nitrogen‐15 isotope. The chemical shifts appear in the normal range for N‐1, N‐2 and N‐3 of the triazine ring, and also correlate with the chemical shifts in the spectra of the imidazolotriazinone, 4, and the imidazolotetrazinone, 5. Significantly, the spectra of 1a, 2 and 4, recorded with full NOE, show inversion of the singlet assigned to N‐3, demonstrating that these compounds exist in the tautomeric form shown. The structure of the 4‐iminobenzotriazinone (3) was confirmed by this ¹⁵N NMR analysis. The spectrum shows a signal for the NH‐bearing imino‐nitrogen atom, which is an inverted singlet in the NOE spectrum, whereas the signal from the N‐3 atom of 3 is not inverted in the NOE spectrum.

15N NMR chemical shifts of ring substituted benzonitriles

15N chemical shifts in an extensive series of para (15) and meta (15) as well as ortho (8) substituted benzonitriles, X-C6H4-CN, were measured in deuteriochloroform solutions, using three different methods of referencing. The standard error of the average chemical shift was less than 0.03 ppm in most cases. The results are discussed for both empirical correlations with substituent parameters and quantum chemical calculations. The 15N chemical shifts calculated at the GIAO/B3LYP/6-31 + G*//B3LYP/6-31 + G* level reproduce the experimental values well, and include nitrogen atoms in the substituent groups (range of 300 ppm with slope 0.98 and R = 0.998, n = 43). The 15N shifts in hydroxybenzonitriles are affected by interaction with the OH group. Therefore, these derivatives are excluded from the correlation analysis. The resultant 15N chemical shift correlates well with substituent constants, both in the simple Hammett or DSP relationships and the 13C substituent-induced chemical shifts of the CN carbon.     

Reaction of o-phenylenediamine with diacetyl monoxime: characterisation of the product by solid-state 13C and 15N MAS NMR

2,3-dimethylquinoxaline (DMQ) and dimethylglyoxime (DMGH2) form a 1:1 hydrogen-bonded complex in the solid state, which is completely dissociated in methanol solution. There are small differences in solid-state 13C shifts between the separated components DMQ and DMGH2 and the complex. The changes in 15N solid-state chemical shifts are more significant: the hydrogen bond imparting a low frequency shift of ca 19 ppm. The effect of direct protonation on the DMQ solid-state 15N shifts was measured, and the experimental 15N data correlated with those from GIAO molecular orbital (MO) calculations.

Sensitivity improvement of 1H-15N cross-polarization at high MAS frequency applied to NMR structural characterization of organic solids

(15)N CP/MAS solid state NMR should be a method of choice to obtain essential structural information on organic materials containing nitrogen atoms. However, the technique is generally not selected for the characterization of non-labelled chemical compounds, which represents the most common situation encountered by chemists. Actually, due to the poor sensitivity of (15)N the method is time-consuming and a very fine calibration is often a prerequisite to reach a sufficient signal/noise. The main drawback comes from the weakness of (15)N-(1)H dipolar couplings which leads to a splitting of the static Hartman Hahn condition into very narrow sideband conditions under MAS. Practically, it is more difficult to obtain a high enough CP transfer level on (15)N for the entire spectrum than on other more conventional nuclei like (13)C. An experimental investigation of the CP efficiency using the ramp and adiabatic CP transfer experiments is here proposed. Preliminary adjustments of experimental settings were first made on an (15)N-labeled substituted heterocyclic model system, and then applied to several other organic compounds. Particular attention was paid to the detection of non-protonated nitrogen atoms with a significant chemical shift anisotropy, which represented the least favourable case. It was experimentally demonstrated that, for these atoms, the adiabatic passage provided a much higher transfer level than the more conventional ramp sequence leading to an enhancement factor of up to 3.5 at a MAS frequency of 30 kHz. The resulting sensitivity rendered possible the detection of non-protonated nitrogen atoms at natural abundance with 2.5-mm rotors at 9.4 T.     

Hydroacridines: part 29. 15N NMR chemical shifts of 9-substituted 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroacridines and their N-oxides-Taft, Swain-Lupton, and other types of linear correlations

The (15)N NMR chemical shifts of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroacridine, 12 of its 9-substituted derivatives, and of the corresponding N-oxides were measured and examined in terms of the 9-substituent effects and the effects of N-oxidation. For the 9-substituent effects, good linear correlations were found with the Taft and Swain-Lupton substituent constants, for both octahydroacridines and their N-oxides. The (15)N chemical shifts of both octahydroacridines and their N-oxides also correlate well, linearly with the (13)C chemical shifts of the para-carbons in analogously substituted benzene derivatives.Within the studied compounds, the magnitudes of the N-oxidation effects range from - 16.4 to - 27.4 ppm (shielding), and also correlate linearly with the Taft and Swain-Lupton substituent constants, as well as with the bond orders of the N(+)-O(-) bonds in the corresponding N-oxides. Furthermore, a very good linear correlation is found between the (15)N chemical shifts of octahydroacridines and those of the corresponding N-oxides. From the (15)N chemical shifts data, the Taft and Swain-Lupton substituent constants for the diacetylamino group (-NAc(2)) were evaluated in the present paper, as follows: sigma(R) = 0.07 and sigma(I) = 0.15; R = 0.08 and F= 0.20.
