Nmr study of the VixSiX4−x compounds with X = Cl,Br; x = 0, 1, 2, 3

¹H, ¹³C and ²⁹Si NMR data for the compounds Vi_xSiX_4?x are reported. While the ¹H and ¹³C resonances from the π system are indicative of the electron-withdrawing inductive effect (-I) of the halogens, the ²⁹Si chemical shift data reveal not only a shift contribution originating from this inductive effect but also the important influence of a {d, σ^*-π} hyperconjugation [1]. This back-donation originates from the vinyl π system and not from the halogens. The chemical shift data and the coupling constants also show an important influence from steric interaction and even from an electric field effect caused by polarization of the silicon—halogen bond.     

29Si and 13C NMR spectra of permethylpolysilanes

²⁹Si, ¹³C and ¹H NMR spectra are reported for the series of linear permethylpolysilanes Me(SiMe₂)_nMe where n = 1 to 6, for the cyclic permethylpolysilanes (Me₂Si)_n where n = 5 to 8, and for a few related compounds. For linear polysilanes the ²⁹Si and ¹³C chemical shifts can be accurately calculated from simple additivity relationships based on the number of silicon atoms in α, β, γ and δ positions. Adjacent (α) silicon atoms lead to upfield shifts in the ²⁹Si and ¹³C resonances, whereas more remote silicon atoms lead to downfield shifts. The ²⁹Si chemical shifts of the polysilane chains are linearly related to the ¹³C shifts of the carbon atoms attached to the silicon. The ²⁹Si and ¹³C resonances of the cyclic silanes deviate from this relationship. Ring current effects arising from σ delocalization are suggested as an explanation for the deviations. Proton-coupled ²⁹Si NMR spectra are reported for Me₃SiSiMe₃ and for (Me₂Si)_n, n = 5 to 7.     

NMR (1H, 13C, 29Si) study of some allylhalogenosilanes

¹H, ¹³C and ²⁹Si NMR spectra of the allylchlorosilanes (CH₂CH-CH₂-)_xSiCl_4?x and of triallylbromosilane have been analysed. Results are discussed in terms of inductive and steric effects and of contributions of diamagnetic anisotropy. There is no conclusive evidence for (p-d)π conjugation.     

29Si and 13C NMR spectra of chloro- and fluoro-substituted linear permethylpolysilanes

²⁹Si and ¹³C NMR spectra are reported for the three halopolysilane series Me(SiMe₂)_nCl, Cl(SiMe₂)_nCl and F(SiMe₂)_nF, where n = 2 to 6. Except for the dihalodisilanes (XSiMe₂)₂, data for all of the compounds fit linear relationships based on substituent constants for chlorine or fluorine atoms in the α, β and γ positions. The effects of halogen substitution on ²⁹Si and ¹³C chemical shifts are rapidly attenuated along the polysilane chain, becoming negligible four atoms away from the halogen. The NMR data provide no evidence for long-range electronic transmission from chlorine or fluorine in halopermethylpolysilanes of the type suggested by other workers [1].     

NMR study (1H, 13C and 29Si) of (CH3)4−x Si(CHCH2)x compounds where x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

The ¹H, ¹³C and ²⁹Si NMR spectra of the various methylvinylsilanes have been analysed with the aid of a special simulation program. From considerations of the chemical shifts and of the coupling constants ^2,3j_¹H-¹H, ¹J_¹³C-¹H, ¹J_{²⁹Si-¹³C} and ²J_{²⁹Si-C-¹H} it is shown that a mesomeric —M effect from the vinyl group to the Me—Si group is important, in very good agreement with previously published PES results [1–3]. The mesomeric interaction in this series is ascribed to a {d, σ^*—π} hyperconjugation in accordance with theoretical considerations [4].     

CNDO/2 study of 29Si NMR chemical shifts

A CNDO-2 study of ²⁹Si NMR chemical shifts for compounds of the type (CH₃)_nSiX_4-n (X = H, F, Cl) is reported. The paramagnetic screening constants σ_p are given. The general variation in σ_p with n agrees fairly well with the variation of the observed chemical shifts for X = H and F, but the correlation is not so good for X = Cl.     

Metalloidalmethyl substituent effects by 13C and 19F NMR : electron release in the neutral ground state.

¹³C and ¹⁹F chemical shift studies of a series of CH₂M(CH₃)₃ and CH₂M(C₆H₅)₃ (M  Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) - substituted aryl derivatives (phenyl; 1-naphthyl; 2-naphthyl) have established unambiguously that the order of hyperconjugative electron release in the neutral ground state is Pb>Sn>Ge>Si. This order is clearly at variance with the commonly accepted order(Pb>Sn>Ge>Si) based on studies of electron deficient substrates. The phenomenon is discussed in terms of current theories on σ-π interactions. In addition, substituent parameters (σ_I and σ_R^o) for the PB(CH₃)₃ group have been derived utilizing new data from the fluorophenyl tag. These new constants are compared with those previously reported.     

Metallorganische verbindungen des 1,2-diethinylbenzols vom typ o-C6H4(CCMR3)2 (M = Si,Ge, Pb)

The preparation of the compounds o-C₆H₄(CCMR₃)₂ (M = Si, Ge, Pb; R = CH₃; M = Pb; R = C₆H₅) is described. Their properties are compared with those of o-C₆H₄(CCSnR₃)₂ (R = CH₃, C₆H₅) and those of their p-isomers. The structures and bonding conditions proposed for these molecules are supported by dipole measurements, mass spectroscopy, IR, Raman, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR data.     

Deuterium-isotopieeffekte auf die 13C-chemischen verschiebungen und kohlenstoff-deuterium kopplungskonstanten in deuterierten verbindungen

The isotope effects on the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts and coupling constants (¹³C¹H and ¹³C¹H) have been determined by pulse Fourier transform ¹³C NMR investigation at 22·63 MHz for more than 30 common deuterated and protonated solvents. The observed isotope effects correlate with hybridization and electron withdrawal at the coupling carbon within the series of comparable compounds. In agreement with MO-theoretical calculations a linear correlation between the J_CD values of CD_x groups and the J_CH values of the corresponding CH_x groups was found. The experimentally determined J_CD values show an average deviation from the calculated line J_CD = (γ_D/γ_H)J_CH = 0·154 ×J_CH on the order of± 1 Hz.     

A multinuclear NMR spectroscopy study of alkoxysilanes

¹⁷O, ²⁹Si, and ¹³C NMR spectra of more than 100 mono-, di-, tri- and tetra-alkoxysilanes R_4−nSi(OR′)_n; R = C_nH_2n+1, Ph, CH₂Cl, CH₂Br; R′ = C_nH_2n+1, CH₂Ph, CH₂CH₂Cl, CH₂CHCH₂, CH₂CCH, CH₂CF₃. (CH₂)₃Cl, (CH₂)₃CN have been studied.Linear relationships between the chemical shifts of ¹⁷O, ²⁹Si, ¹³C in alkoxysilanes and the inductive and steric constants of substituents R and R′ were observed. Different transmission of electronic effects along the SiO bond in various directions was revealed by means of ¹³C, ²⁹Si, ¹⁷O NMR spectroscopy and correlation analysis. The results are discussed in terms of (pd)_π-bonding between the oxygen and silicon atoms in compounds containing an SiO bond.     

29Si and 13C NMR Studies of organofunctional di- and trisilanes

A series of di- and trisilanes of general structure Ph₃SiSiMe₂R and (Ph₃Si)₂SiR′R″ were synthesized, and the ²⁹Si and ¹³C chemical shifts and one-bond siliconsilicon coupling constants (¹J_SiSi) were measured. The coupling constants of the disilanes were found to be primarily dependent upon the inductive effect of the alkyl group, R, as measured by the Taft o^★ constant. In both series of compounds, increasing alkyl substitution at silicon led to a decrease in ¹J_SiSi.     

NMR investigation of bis(2,3-alkanedione dioximato)-bis(pyridine)cobalt(III) iodide complexes: 1H and 13C NMR spectra and 13C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements

The complexes of trans-[Co(III)(R,CH₃-dioxH)₂(py)₂]I2 (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) were investigated in solution by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra and ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements. The ¹H and ¹³C-resonances of the R = C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) groups were shifted to higher field than those of the free ligands by the complexation; it was attributable to the ring current shielding due to the axial pyridine ligands of the complexes. ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation times were interpreted as due to movement of the axial pyridine ligands as if they twist around the CoN (pyridine nitrogen) bond axis and the above R groups were moving segmentally. These segmental movements allowed the R groups to approach closely toward the axial pyridine ring plane to experience the ring current shielding.     

Actinide-centered cyclometalation chemistry. An unusually distorted thorium bishydrocarbyl: Thp[η5-(CH3)5C5]2CH2Si(CH3)3]2

The crystal and molecular structure of the complex Th[η⁵-(CH₃)₅C₅]₂[CH₂-Si(CH₃)₃]₂, which undergoes facile intramolecular cyclometalation to the thoracyclobutane Th[η⁵-(CH₃)₅C₅]₂(CH₂)₂Si(CH₃)₂, is reported. While the Th[η⁵-(CH₃)₅C₅]₂ ligation is unexceptional, the Th[CH₂Si(CH₃)₃]₂ fragment is highly unsymmetrical having Th-C (corresponding angle Th-C-Si) 2.51(1) Å (132.0(6)°) and 2.46(1) Å (148.0(7)°). This conformation, which appears to result from severe intramolecular non-bonded contacts, allows a methyl hydrogen atom of one CH₂Si(CH₃)₃ ligand to approach within ca. 2.3 Å of the α-carbon atom of the other CH₂Si(CH₃)₃ ligand.     

Formation of perfluorinated polyphenylenes by multiple pentafluorophenylation using C6F5Si(CH3)3

Pentafluorophenylation of perfluoroarenes with C₆F₅Si(CH₃)₃ was investigated by using NMR and MALDI-TOF-MS techniques. Successive multiple pentafluorophenylation easily occurred not only on the para-position but also on the ortho-positions to provide perfluorinated p-phenylene and m-phenylene compounds. The perfluoroarenes having electron-withdrawing substituents provided oligo- to poly-(phenylene)s depending on the added amounts of C₆F₅Si(CH₃)₃, while the perfluoroarenes having electron-donor substituents gave H(C₆F₄)_nF polymers produced from C₆F₅H, which was the decomposed product of C₆F₅Si(CH₃)₃.     

NMR study of organosilicon compounds. III—Silicon-29, nitrogen-14, carbon-13 and proton NMR spectra of silylakylamines

²⁹Si, ¹⁴N ¹³C and ¹H NMR data are presented for a series of homologous (methylethoxysilyl)alkylamines of the type (CH₃)_3?n(C₂H₅O)_nSi(CH₂)_mNH₂(n=o to 3; m = 1 to 4). The measured ¹³C and ¹H chemical shifts correlate with the total net charges Q_A on the corressponding atoms, estimated by the Del Re method. ¹⁴N and ²⁹Si chemical shifts which do not show simple linear relationships to the charges are found to correlate with the relative basicities of the compounds. The influence of the remote substituent (? NH₂ and others) on the ₂₉Si chemical shifts is shown to depend on the number and nature of substituents directly on the silicon atom. Argyments for d-orbital participation in the Si? O bounds are given. The chemical shifts of ²⁹Si, ¹⁴N and ₁₃C nuclei are not consistent with the fromation of intramolecular ‘long bonds’ between the solicon and nitrogen atoms in aliphatic silymethylamines.     

Etude RMN du 13C de composes fluoroaliphatiques et de tensioactifs non ioniques perfluoroalkyles

Carbon-13 chemical shifts, spin-lattice relaxation times and nuclear Overhauser enhancement factors at 28°C are reported for a series of polyfluoroaliphatic compounds :

, and perfluoroalkyl nonionic surfactants C_mF_2m+1CH₂(OC₂H₄)_nOH with m = 6, 7 and n = 3, 4, 5, 6 and C₆F₁₃CH₂CH₂CONH(C₂H₄O)_nH with n = 3, 4. The influence of the perfluoroalkyl group on the ¹³C chemtcal shifts of the neighbouring hydrogenated carbons is discussed in terms of hyperconjugative type interactions between lone electron pairs on fluorine and the neighbouring CC or CO bond. Relaxation data show similar flexibilities of the fluorinated chains in the different molecules investigated. Nonionic surfactants exhibit segmental motions in both the hydrophobic perfluoroalkyl and the hydrophilic polyoxyethylene chains ; these motions appear to be similar to those of the analogous hydrogenated surfactants.     

Crystal and molecular structure of (η3-allyl)carbonylchlorobis(dimethylphenylphosphine)- iridium(III) hexafluorophosphate, [Ir(η3-C3H5)Cl(CO)(P(CH3)2(C6H5))2][PF6

The structure of (η³-allyl)carbonylchlorobis(dimethylphenylphosphine)-iridium(III) hexafluorophosphate, [Ir(η³-C₃H₅)Cl(CO)(P(CH₃)₂(C₆H₅))₂][PF₆], has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray data to add support for a proposed mechanism of the oxidative addition of allyl halides to IrX(CO)(PR₃)₂ (X = halide). The compound crystallizes in space group C⁵_2h-P2₁/c with four formula units in a cell of dimensions a = 11.027(1), b = 12.230(2), c = 19.447(5) Å, and β = 103.16(2)⁰. Least-squares refinement of the structure has led to a value of the conventional R index (on F) of 0.066 for the 3018 independent reflections having F²₀>3—(F²₀). The crystal structure consists of discrete, monomericions. The hexafluorophosphate anion is disordered. The coordination geometry around the iridium atom may be described as octahedral, with the chloro ligand trans to the carbonyl group and each phosphorus atom trans to a terminal carbon of the allyl group. Structural parameters: Ir—P = 2.366(4), 2.347(3);Ir—Cl = 2.389(3); Ir—C(allyl) = 2.28(1), 2.24(1),2.25(1); Ir—C (carbonyl) = 1.85(1) Å; P—Ir—P = 105.7(1); C(terminal)—Ir—C(terminal) = 66.2(8); C—C—C = 125(2)^o. The allyl group makes an angle of 126^o with the P—Ir—P plane. Correlations between geometric structure and number of d electrons are noted among several M—C₃H₅-complexes, and are interpreted in the light of theoretical models of the M—C₃H₅- bond.     

Über die Reaktion des käfigartigen Kieselsäurederivats [(CH3)2HSi]8Si8O20 mit ungesättigten organischen Verbindungen

Reaction of the Cage-like Silicic Acid Derivative [(CH₃)₂HSi]₈Si₈O₂₀ with Unsaturated Organic Compounds By ²⁹Si, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR investigations were shown that the eight HSi?groups of the double four-ring silicic acid derivative [(CH₃)₂HSi]₈Si₈O₂₀ react with the following unsaturated compounds: vinylcyclohexene, allyl glycidyl ether, methyl methacrylate, octadecene-1, and styrene. The resulting oily products are soluble in organic solvents. The compounds were characterized by the chemical shifts of the ²⁹Si, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR signals. Their formulae are [C₆H₉(CH₂)₂Si(CH₃)₂]₈Si₈O₂₀, [CH₃OOCCH(CH₃)CH₂Si(CH₃)₂]₈Si₈O₂₀, [CH₃(CH₂)₁₇Si(CH₃)₂]₈Si₈O₂₀ and [C₆H₅(CH₂)₂Si(CH₃)₂]₈Si₈O₂₀, and [C₆H₅CH(CH₃)Si(CH₃)₂]₈ Si₈O₂₀, respectively. Mainly the addition reactions do not follow the Markovnikov rule.

Analysis of ¹H and ¹³C spectra of 1-¹³ C-acetylene gives the same relative sign for ^J_CH and ^J'_CH. Precise chemical     

Structure, 31P and 13C chemical shift anisotrophy of (CH3)3P, (CH3)3PO, (CH3)3PS and (CH3)3PSe as determined by liquid crystal NMR spectroscopy

The ¹³P and ¹³C spectra of the triply ¹³C labelled molecules (CH₃)₃P, (CH₃)₃PO, (CH₃)₃PS and (CH₃)₃PSe oriented in a nematic phase are reported. The CPC bond angles have been measured. The ¹³P chemical shift tensor shows a large anisotropy except in the case of (CH₃)₃P. The abnormal large value observed for the PSe bond length suggests a large anisotropy of the ¹J(PSe) spin coupling.
