13C Pulse fourier transform NMR of menthol stereoisomers and related compounds

¹³C NMR spectra of menthol stereoisomers have been determined. The correlations of chemical shifts of these ring carbons with those of stereoisomeric 2-isopropylcyclohexanols are examined. Observed chemical shifts of 1-Me carbons are compared with those predicted from the chemical shifts of stereoisomeric 1-methyl-4-t-butylcyclohexanes. ¹³C NMR spectra of menthyl acetates, and cis and trans p -menthanes have also been examined.

The results are given of a study of the¹³C NMR spectra of (–)-3(R)-decursinol, obtusifol, bergapten, isoimperatorin, and oxypeucedanin and its hydrate.

Fourier 13C NMR and PMR including 13C satellites of oriented cyanopropyne

Fourier ¹³C and proton NMR spectra of cyanopropyne partially oriented by a nematic phase have been recorded and interpreted. It is shown that more accurate measurements are obtained much more rapidly by observing ¹³C satellites by Fourier PMR than by direct observation of the ¹³C spectrum. The geometry has been extracted from direct couplings; a small but systematic discrepancy with microwave spectroscopy is observed for the carboncarbon bond lengths.

The 13C and 119Sn NMR spectra of some four- and five-coordinate tri-n-butyltin(IV) compounds

Silver tetrafluoroborate reacts with Cl(bipy)(CO)₂(η³-C₃H₅)Mo in CH₂Cl₂ to give the dimeric cation, (μ-Cl)[(bipy)(CO)₂(η³-C₃H₅)Mo]₂⁺, isolated as the crystalline BF₄^? salt with CH₂Cl₂ of solvation (5). Complex 5 crystallizes in the triclinic system (space group P$\text{1}$, No. 2) with cell parameters: a 11.831(2), b 10.142(3), c 15.618(3) Å; α 93.96(2), β 104.33(2), γ 91.41(2)°, V 1809.5(8) ųZ = 2, ?_calc 1.60 g cm^?3. Full matrix refinement with all but three atoms anisotropic converged at R₁ = 0.057 and R₂ = 0.073 based on 3742 reflections with I > 30(1). The two halves of the dimer are connected by a single chloride bridge (Mo-Cl 2.554(3), 2.519(3) Å, Mo-Cl-Mo 134.0(1)°). The η³-allyl group is oriented so that its open face points toward the two cis-carbonyl groups, a feature common to all L₂X(CO)₂Mo(η³-allyl) structures determined to date. A molecular orbital analysis shows that this rotational preference of the allyl group has its roots in the strong π-bonding character of the carbonyls. The MO analysis also provides a rationale for regioselectivity observed in the reactions of various η³-allyl complexes with nucleophiles. In particular, the factors which determine whether the terminal carbons are attacked (giving olefin) or whether the central carbon is attacked (giving a metallacyclobutane) are exposed.     

1H and13C NMR spectra of biologically active compounds

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.     

13C NMR spectra of η3 -allylmanganesetetracarbonyl compounds; structural implications

The ¹³C NMR spectra of η³-allylmanganese tetracarbonyl complexes are consistent with an overall C_s, symmetry and involving a σ_v plane in the Mn(CO)₄ fragment. A dynamic carbonyl interchange process was looked for but the results are inconclusive, however the barrier for this process is certainly greater than 42 kJ/mol. This observation suggests an octahedral type geometry rather than a square pyramid type configuration.     

13C NMR spectra of some methylplatinum(IV) complexes

The ¹³C NMR spectra of some methylplatinum(IV) Schiff-base and related complexes have been recorded. The results are interpreted in terms of the differing effects of various donor atoms on a platinumcarbon bond in the trans position.

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.     

1H and 13C NMR spectral analysis of some necines of toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids

Summary The total assignment of the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of the necines of toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (retronecine, heliotridine, crotanecine, otonecine), their hydrochlorides and their N-oxides has been performed. The characteristic chemical shift differences between retronecine and heliotridine, as well as the protonation and N-oxidation shift effects in NMR studies of necines at the corresponding position are proposed to be an additional assignment aid. The assignment of the spectra was achieved by the concerted use of 2D correlation spectroscopy.Dedicated to Prof. Dr. Dr. Dres. h. c. Herbert Oelschläger, Frankfurt/Main, on the occasion of his 70th birthday

Synthesis and 13C nmr characterization of some π-excessive heteropolyaromatic compounds

Several π-excessive heteropolyaromatic compounds, which contain furan and thiophen ring and are possible antifungal agents, have been synthesized in good yields according to two general methods. The first method has been used to prepare compounds possessing thiophens linked by their 2- and 5-positions, such as the ter-aryls $\text{2b}$, $\text{2d}$ and $\text{2a}$. Two precursors of these compounds have been obtained either by the Glaser reaction, or using a novel Pd-mediated reaction. The second method,which consists of the Ni-or Pd-catalyzed heteroarylation of heteroarene halides via cross-coupling with heteroaryl Grignard reagents or zinc halides,has been used to prepare the bi-aryls $\text{1a-e}$, which contain two heteroaromatic units, and the ter-aryl $\text{2c}$. Compound $\text{1e}$ has been also prepared starting from 2-(2-thienyl) furan ($\text{1c}$) by selective lithiation, followed by bromination.The ¹³C NMR signals of $\text{1a-e}$ and $\text{2a-d}$ have been assigned on the basis of the literature data and by relaxation measurements. Relaxation data have been also used to obtain qualitative informations on the conformational equilibria of the bi-aryls $\text{1a}$, $\text{1c}$ and the ter-aryls $\text{2a-d}$.     

13C high-resolution NMR study of undoped polyacetylene

¹³C NMR spectra of undoped polyacetylene,(CH)_x, have been measured. The existence of 3.4 mol% methylene moieties as defects in the (CH)_x chains has been observed in trans-(CH)_x. Measurements of partially cis-to-trans isomerized (CH)_x suggest the existence of isolated cis regions.     

13C NMR Study of ginseng sapogenins and their related dammarane type triterpenes

In connection with structure studies on dammarane type triterpenes and their glycosides, assignments of ¹³C NMR signals of fifteen 20-hydroxy-dammarane derivatives including Ginseng sapogenins have been achieved by the aid of shift reagents and deuterated compounds. It has been found that the differences of the 17 C, 21 C and 22 C chemical shifts between pairs of C-20 epimers are remarkable especially in the case of 12β-hydroxy derivatives, being significant for the study of the C-20 stereochemistry.
