1H and13C NMR spectra,stereoisomerism, and conformational states of 3-phenyl-5-isopropoxytetrahydro-2-furanones

The¹H and¹³C NMR spectra of the diastereomers of 3-phenyl-5-isopropoxytetrahydro-2-furanone were obtained. The stereoisomerism and preferred conformational states of these diastereomers were established by means of the spectroscopic criteria found for 3,4-disubstituted sulfolanes and 1,1,3,4-tetrasubstituted silacyclopentanes. It is shown that for the cis isomer the equilibrium is shifted to favor pseudoequatorial conformers, whereas for the trans isomer it shifted to favor ae conformers with a preferred pseudoequatorial orientation of phenyl substituent.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 593–597, May, 1988.     

1H NMR spectra and conformational analysis of some 1,4-dithiepan-6-ones

¹H NMR Parameters are reported for five 1,4-dithiepan-6-ones. 1,4-Dithiepan-6-one 1-oxide exists in solution as an equilibrium involving two different twist-chair conformations, which contrasts with its conformational behaviour in the solid state. Twist-chair conformers are also adopted by other members of the series, the favoured form varying with ring substitution. The S?O bond in 1,4-dithiepan-6-one 1-oxide and in its 5,5-dimethyl analogue exhibit a preference for the pseudoaxial site.     

Synthesis and NMR studies of 2- and 3-fluorosubstitued five-membered heterocycles

A set of 2-fluoro- and 3-fluoro-substituted thiophenes, pyrroles and furans has been synthesized by a treatment of the corresponding lithio derivatives with N-fluorodibenzenesulfonamide. For all these compounds, and coupling constants and NMR chemical shifts have been measured. In all cases, a dramatic increase of the couplings has been observed in 2-fluoro- and 3-fluoro-substituted compounds in comparison with those measured for the parent compounds. The same is valid for measured in 3-fluoro derivatives.The DFT calculations performed for 2- and 3-fluoro-substituted compounds reproduce very well the experimental coupling values and show that the Fermi contact contribution is the main factor determining their magnitude. Also the trends observed in the NMR shieldings are well reflected in the calculated DFT data.     

NMR spectra, GIAO and charge density calculations of five-membered aromatic heterocycles

The B3LYP/6-31+G(d) molecular geometry optimized structures of 17 five-membered heterocycles were employed together with the gauge including atomic orbitals (GIAO) density functional theory (DFT) method at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,p) levels of theory for the calculation of proton and carbon chemicals shifts and coupling constants. The method of geometry optimization for pyrrole (1), N-methylpyrrole (2) and thiophene (7) using the larger 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p), B3LYP/6-31+G(2d,p) and B3LYP/cc-pVTZ levels of theory gave little difference between calculated and experimental values of coupling constants. In general, the (1)H and 13C chemical shifts for all compounds are in good agreement with theoretical calculations using the smaller 6-31 basis set. The values of nJHH(n=3, 4, 5) and rmnJ(CH)(n=1, 2, 3, 4) were predicted well using the larger 6-31+G(d,p) and 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets and at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p), B3LYP/6-31+G(2d,2p) levels of theory. The computed atomic charges [Mülliken; Natural Bond Orbital Analysis (NBO); Merz-Kollman (MK); CHELP and CHELPG] for the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) geometry optimized structures of 1-17 were used to explore correlations with the experimental proton and carbon chemical shifts.     

13C NMR spectra of some 1-, 3- and 4-monosubstituted and disubstituted isoquinolines

Chemical shifts and substituent chemical shift (SCS) effects are reported for 21 monosubstituted iso-quinolines, carrying a halogeno, amino, piperidino or ethoxy group in position 1, 3 or 4. In some cases, assignments of ¹³C resonances were based on the spectra of the corresponding 5-deutero derivatives. For the fluoroisoquinolines some ¹³CF coupling constants are given. The ¹³C NMR spectra of 15 disubstituted isoquinolines were measured; with a few exceptions, mainly the 3,4- and 1,4-disubstituted isoquinolines, the chemical shifts agreed well with those calculated by addition of the SCS effects.     

Carbon-13 NMR spectra of saturated heterocycles: XI—Tetrahydropyrans (oxanes)

The ¹³C NMR spectra of 62 oxanes (tetrahydropyrans) with and without methyl substituents at various ring positions, some of them bearing in addition (or instead) ethyl, vinyl, ethynyl, carbomethoxy and methylol substituents at C-2, have been recorded, and the 294 resulting chemical shifts have been correlated by multiple linear regression analysis. Axial and equatorial α-, β-, γ-, δ-, gem- and vic-parameters for shifts caused by methyl groups at all ring positions, and similar parameters for Et,—CH?CH₂,—C?CH, CO₂Me and CH₂OH groups at C-2, are reported. Standard deviations of the parameters are, in most cases, within 0.3 ppm and the agreement of calculated and experimental shifts is excellent. This is probably the largest parameter set of this type extant. ¹³C NMR spectra of a number of additional substituted tetrahydropyrans, and of 3,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans and 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrans, are tabulated and discussed.     

Shake-up transitions in the X-ray photoelectron spectra of some five-membered heterocycles containing two heteroatoms

Low energy, low intensity shake-up satellites are observed in the various energy regions of the XPS spectra of imidazole, pyrazole, thiazole, isothiazole and isooxazole. Their energy and intensity trends are the same as those previously observed for furan, thiophen and pyrrole and semiquantitatively reproduced by CNDO/S-CI calculations. They derive from π-π* transitions of pseudo-b₁ symmetry usually involving charge transfer away from the core-ionized atom towards adjacent atoms, often from the heteroatom X (X = O, S, NH) towards the ring.     

Application of 1H and 13C NMR to the structural elucidation of tetrahydroquinoxalines condensed with five-membered heterocycles

¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data for 21 N-methyltetrahydroquinoxalines annelated with furan, pyrrole, imidazole or thiazole rings are reported. Unambiguous assignments of the ring junction ¹³C resonances were made on the basis of selective decoupling experiments and with the aid of one-bond and long-range ¹³C–¹H coupling constants. The effects of five-membered heterocycles on the ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts of the ring junction hydrogen and carbon atoms are considered. Values of one-bond ¹J(CH) and vicinal ³J(HH) coupling constants between the ring junction protons are also discussed as a diagnostic means for structural elucidation of tetrahydroquinoxalines condensed with five-membered heterocycles.     

1H and13C NMR spectra of vinyl sulfides of nitrogencontaining heterocycles

Conclusions The conformational composition of vinyl sulfides of nitrogen-containing heterocycles is not uniform. 3-Vinylthio-1,2,4-triazole, 2-vinylthiopyrimidine, 2-vinylthioquinoline, and 8-vinylthioquinoline exist mainly in the S-trans form, while for 3-vinylthioindoles and 5-vinylthioquinoline the S-trans form is not typical.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1753–1758, August, 1987.     

13C and proton NMR spectra of 2(1H)pyrazinones

¹³C and proton NMR spectra data are given for eleven 2(1H)pyraziones. Assignments of chemical shifts were made by methods which included: deuterium exchange with certain protons of 3-alkyl substituents; change of chemical shifts of certain carbon atoms with change in pH; the use of long-range coupling constants for ¹³C to protons; and various correlations among assigned spectra.     

Spectroscopic effects and intramolecular interactions in the1H and13C NMR spectra of five-membered N-vinyllactams

In 1-vinylpyrrolidone, 1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-ones, 1,3-divinylimidazolidine-2-thione, and 1-vinylbenzimidazole-1-thione the vinyl groups exist predominantly in the s-trans-, but in 1-vinyl-4,5-diphenylimidazole-2-ones in the s-cis(0)-conformations relative to the exocyclic heteroatom. In 1-vinylbenzimidazole-2-ones, 3-vinylbenzoxazole-2-one, and 1-vinylindole-2,3-diones the vinyl group is present as a mixture of the s-cis(0)- and s-trans(0)-conformations. According to¹H and¹³C NMR results there are specific intramolecular interactions in 1-vinylpyrrolidone and in 1,3-divinylimidazolidine-2-thione resembling weak hydrogen bonding between the -hydrogen atoms of the vinyl group and the oxygen or the sulfur atom. In 1-vinylsuccinimide, 2-vinylphthalimide, and 1,3-divinyl-4,5-diphenylimidazole-2-one there is the same type of interaction with the -cis-hydrogen atom of the vinyl group, while in 1,3-divinyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-one there is interaction between the same hydrogen atom and the nitrogen atom.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 1983–1990, September, 1990.     

Synthesis and 1H NMR spectra of some 1-aryl-2,5-pyrrolidinediones

Three 1-aryl-2,5 pyrrolidinediones, two of which are novel, were prepared by reaction of the requisite primary aromatic amines with succinic anhydride, followed by treatment with acetic anhydride. The ¹H nmr spectra for the derivatives in which aryl is 1-naphthyl and 1-anthracenyl exhibit 32-line multiplets for the four aliphatic hydrogens, indicating that all four are in different environments. Examination of molecular models demonstrates that the pyrrolidinedione and aryl ring systems cannot be coplanar and that rotation about the nitrogen-aryl bond is restricted. Molecular mechanics calculations reveal that a dihedral angle of 50–65° for the two ring systems results in the minimum steric interaction energy.     

31P-{1H} NMR spectra of some o-tolylbis (triphenylphosphine)nickel derivatives

Conclusion ³¹P NMR spectroscopy was used to show that o-tolylbis(triphenylphosphine)nickel carboxylates may exist in solution in two forms. A study of the exchange reactions of these complexes with triphenylphosphine indicated that the difference between these forms is a consequence of the chelation or lack of chelation of the nickel atom with the carboxylate group oxygen.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1028–1031, May, 1988.     

Single-molecule vibrations, conformational changes, and electronic conductivity of five-membered heterocycles

Using an ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscope (STM), we have explored the interactions of isolated five-membered heterocycles, pyrrole, thiophene, pyrrolidine, and tetrahydrothiophene, with the Cu(001) surface at 9 K. Pyrrolidine was also studied on the Ag(001) surface. Important distinctions in bonding, vibrational spectra, and vibrationally mediated negative differential resistance were observed with the aid of single-molecule inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy (STM-IETS).     

Acid-base properties of five-membered nitrogen-containing heterocycles (review)

The acid-base properties of five-membered nitrogen-containing heterocycles with one, two, three, and four nitrogen atoms in the ring are discussed. The factors that determine the properties of these compounds as acids and bases are analyzed. The problems that arise in comparing the basicities of heterocycles, the protonation of which is described by different acidity scales are stressed. A significant amount of space is allotted to an examination of the acid-base properties of nitrogen-containing heterocycles in the gas phase and to the use of quantum-chemical methods in the study of the protolytic equilibria of these compounds.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 579–592, May, 1988.     

Vibrational and 1H NMR spectra of N-(2-pyridyl)-thioformamide and N-(2-pyridyl)thioacetamide

The Raman and infrared spectra of N-(2-pyridyl)thioformamide and N-(2-pyridyl)-thioacetamide have been measured. The assignment of the bands is aided by the complete normal coordinate treatment for all the vibrations of N-(2-pyridyl)thioformamide and its N-deuterated molecule using a Urey—Bradley force function for the in-plane vibrations and a valence force function for the out of plane vibrations. Variable temperature ¹H NMR study of the two pyridylthionamides has also been performed. It is inferred that while N-(2-pyridyl)thioformamide favours a cis —CSNH— group, the other compound favours a trans —CSNH— grouping at ambient temperature.     

Synthesis and biological screening of some chromonyl-substituted heterocycles derived from 2(3H)-furanone derivative

A 2(3H)-furanone bearing chromonyl moiety at position-3 was synthesized and utilized for the construction of N-heterocycles such as pyrrolone, N-aminoquinolone, and pyridazinone derivatives. The reactivity of the chromonylfuranone toward some nitrogen nucleophiles such as ammonia, benzylamine, hydrazine, and phenylhydrazine was studied. On the other hand, thiation of the starting chromonylfuranone interestingly provides mono- and di-thiated products. The chemoselectivity of these reactions is discussed. The structures of all products obtained were elucidated from their analytical and spectral data. The antimicrobial activities of selected examples of the synthesized compounds were examined against two strains of bacteria and two fungus strains. Some of them showed promising antimicrobial activities.     

1H, 2H and 13C NMR spectra and molecular dynamics of some solid alkylene-aromatic polyesters

Molecular dynamics of some mesomorphic main–chain alkylene–aromatic polyesters have been investigated by means of NMR spectra of various nuclei over a wide temperature range. In solid polymers regions of different molecular mobilities coexist and their fractions are determined by the sample temperature and thermal history. The sample annealing leads to the growth of rigid fraction. It was found that below the glass transition temperature the only forms of large–scale mobility are the torsional vibrations and flips of para–phenylene groups, while spacer groups are virtually rigid. Above the glass temperature almost all phenylene rings undergo flipping motions and methylene groups of the spacer take part in complicated motions of both anisotropic and isotropic character.     

Carbon-13 NMR spectra of saturated heterocycles: VIII—tetrahydrofurans and 1,3-dioxolanes

The ¹³C NMR spectra of 17 methyl- and ethyl-substituted tetrahydrofurans and 58 alkyl- and aryl- substituted 1,3-dioxolanes are reported. For the cases in which substituents recur, additive substituent parameters are calculated and compared with similar parameters in cyclopentanes and in 6-membered rings. Considering the conformational flexibility of 5-membered ring systems, additivity of the parameters is surprisingly good.
