13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants in six-membered ring azaaromatic compounds

The ¹³C-{¹H} NMR spectra of monomethyl substituted diazines, protonated at the picoline and 2-methylopyrimidine nitrogen atoms, have been analyzed, along with that of pyridine N-oxide and its 2-methyl derivatives protonated at the oxygen atom. Direct and vicinal ¹³C-¹³C spin-spin coupling constants (SSCC) have been measured. It was found that the ¹³C-¹³C SSCC in diazines follow additivity rules which are based on consideration of the number and mutual orientation or distribution of nitrogen atoms in the ring. It has also been demonstrated that increased direct ¹J_CC values involving methyl group carbon atoms in -positions to nitrogen atoms in the aromatic ring are due to effects associated with unshared electron pairs.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklieheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1243–1250, September, 1988.     

13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants in the spectra of monosubstituted pyridines

The ¹³C- {¹H} NMR spectra of pyridine and a number of monosubstituted pyridines for compounds with the natural percentage of the ¹³C isotope were analyzed. The direct, geminal, and vicinal ¹³C-¹³C spin-spin coupling constants (SSCC) were determined. Linear relationships that link the ¹³C-¹³C SSCC in the spectra of monosubstituted pyridines and benzenes were obtained.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1383–1385, October, 1985.     

Direct 13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants in the vinyl group of N-vinylazoles

The unshared electron pair of the dicoordinated nitrogen atom introduces a stereospecific contribution to the ¹³C-¹³C spin-spin coupling constant (SSCC) in the vinyl group of a series of N-vinylazoles, the value of which depends on the energetics of the unshared pair.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 197–200, February, 1989.     

Direct13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants of olefinic carbons in vinyl ethers

Conclusions In alkyl vinyl ethers, the values of¹J (¹³C=¹³C) SSCC increase with increasing effective volume of the alkyl group, opposite to the change in the corresponding constants in the series of alkyl phenyl ethers.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 2249–2252, October, 1982.     

Direct13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants for the triple bond in activated acetylenes

Conclusions ¹³C-¹³C SSCC values across the triple bond in activated acetylenes are determined primarily by the -electronic properties of substituents. The enhanced sensitivity of¹J_cc in acetylene derivatives to substituent effects also asserts their possible utility in estimating the electronegative properties of substituents.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1287–1292, June, 1988.     

13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants in structural studies: XLIII. Stereochemical study on functionalized 3-iminopyrrolizines

Three 1-ethylsulfanyl-3-imino-3H-pyrrolizine-2-carboxamides were synthesized by intramolecular cyclization of substituted (2Z)-2-cyano-3-ethylsulfanyl-3-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)prop-2-enamides. The products were assigned syn configuration at the C=N bond and preferential s-cis orientation of the carbamoyl group on the basis of the experimental ¹³C-¹³C coupling constants and high-level nonempirical quantum-chemical calculations.     

NMR study of conjugation effects 15.13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants in phenyl alkyl ether

Conclusions ¹³C-¹³C SSCC were measured for a series of phenyl alkyl ethers. The values through the bond between C² and C³ in mono substituted benzenes most clearly reflect the -electron interaction of the aromatic ring with the substituent, provided the latter contains no atoms from a period of the periodic table higher than the second.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya.No. 1, pp. 113–119, January, 1982.The authors thank N. M. Sergeev for useful discussions while the work was in progress, and V. N. Khlopkov for technical assistance in setting up the experiments.     

13C-13C NMR spin-spin coupling constants in saccharides: structural correlations involving all carbons in aldohexopyranosyl rings

13C-13C Spin-spin coupling constants (JCC) have been measured in a group of aldohexopyranoses and methyl aldopyranosides singly labeled with 13C at different sites to confirm and extend prior correlations between JCC magnitude and sign and saccharide structure. Structural correlations for 2JC1,C3, 2JC2,C4, 2JC4,C6, and 2JC1,C5 have been confirmed using density functional theory calculations to test empirical predictions. These geminal couplings depend highly on the orientation of C-O bonds appended to the terminal coupled carbons, but new evidence suggests that 2JCCC values are also affected by intervening carbon structure and C-O bond rotation. 3JC1,C6 and 3JC3,C6 values show Karplus-like dependences but also are affected by in-plane terminal hydroxyl substituents. In both cases, rotation about the C5-C6 bond modulates the coupling due to the alternating in-plane and out-of-plane O6. 3JC3,C6 is also affected by C4 configuration. Both 3JC1,C6 and 3JC3,C6 are subject to remote effects involving the structure at C3 and C1, respectively. New structural correlations have been determined for 2JC3,C5, which, like 3JC3,C6, shows a remote dependence on anomeric configuration. Investigations of dual pathway 13C-13C couplings, 3+3JC1,C4 and 3+3JC2,C5, revealed an important additional internal electronegative substituent effect on 3JCC in saccharides, a structural factor undocumented previously and one of importance to the interpretation of trans-glycoside 3JCOCC in oligosaccharides.
