NMR spectroscopic elucidation of the structure and stereochemistry of tricyclic 3-styrylpyrazolines

Diastereomeric mixtures of tricyclic 3-styrylpyrazolines have been prepared by the reaction of 3-cynnamylidenechroman-4-ones and their 1-thio analogs with hydrazine in hot acetic acid or propionic acid solutions. The diastereomeric mixtures were separated by column chromatography to obtain the pure diastereomers. The elucidation of their structure and stereochemistry and complete (1)H and (13)C assignments have been performed by a combination of various one- and two-dimensional NMR experiments.     

Structural elucidation of propargylated products of 3-substituted-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiols by NMR techniques

Propargylation of 3-substituted-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiols, which predominantly exist as their thione tautomers, was carried out with the view to synthesize different heterocycles and study their biological activity. Three different products namely, a mono S-propargyl and two S,N-dipropargyl regioisomers, arising from N1/N2 substitution, were isolated and characterized. Unambiguous structural elucidation of the regioisomers of S,N-dipropargyl derivatives was achieved by means of (13)C-(1)H HMBC technique. The proportion of the regioisomers was found to vary with the substituent on the 1,2,4-triazole thiols. No product corresponding to N4 substitution was isolated from any of the reactions carried out.     

Unequivocal total assignment of 13C and 1H NMR spectra of some pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidine derivatives by 2D‐NMR

We report the total assignments of the ¹³C and ¹H NMR spectra of some 4‐methyl‐2‐oxo‐(2H)‐pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidine and 2‐methyl‐4‐oxo‐(4H)‐pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidine derivatives. The products were characterized by ¹H and ¹³C NMR and reported data for similar compounds. No comparative data for the two sets of isomeric compounds with respect to ¹³C and ¹H NMR have been reported to date. We made some detailed studies of the 2D NMR spectra of these compounds and observed that assignments made for non‐protonated carbon atoms by us and those reported in the literature for similar compounds need correction. The revised assignments were made on the basis of heteronuclear single quantum correlation (HSQC) and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) techniques.

1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectral characterization of twenty-seven 1,2-diaryl-(4E)-arylidene-2-imidazolin-5-ones

1H, 13C and 15N NMR chemical shifts and couplings (n)J(H,C) in DMSO-d(6) at 30 degrees C have been determined for 1,2-diaryl-(4E)-arylidene-2-imidazolin-5-one derivatives 1-27. Their chemical shift assignments are based on PFG DQF 1H,1H COSY, PFG 1H,13C HMQC as well as PFG 1H,13C and 1H,15N HMBC experiments. For compounds 1-10 including aryl fluorine substituent(s) also the couplings (n)J(F,C) (n = 1 - 4) are reported.     

An anomalous course of the reduction of 2-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)benzene diazonium salt: a reinvestigation

The 1H,13C and 15N NMR spectra of the reduction product of 2-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-yl)benzene diazonium salt with sodium sulfite were measured and analysed. It is shown that the reaction product corresponds to 1-(indazol-3-yl)-1,2-dihydro-benzimidazol-2-on and not 6H-quinoxalino[1,2-c] [1,2,3]benzotriazin-12(13H)-one as published previously. The correctness of the structure was confirmed by an independent synthesis. The observed 15N chemical shifts were compared with the predicted ones using the ACD/NNMR 9.01 program.     

1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectral analysis of substituted 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidines

The NMR spectroscopic data of a series of thirty‐four 3‐acylpyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidinium salts are analyzed, which were prepared as either perchlorates or chlorides. Methyl group substituted 3‐aroyltetrahydropyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidines with the methyl substituent in positions 6, 8 and 9 as well as both in positions 6 and 8 were investigated bearing various aroyl substituents. Unequivocal assignment of all resonances was achieved via two‐dimensional ¹H,¹H‐COSY measurements, ¹H,¹³C and ¹H,¹⁵N HSQC as well as HMBC experiments, and important diagnostic CH and NH couplings in the heteroaromatic ring system are evaluated. The influence of the methyl substituents was analyzed on the proton, carbon and nitrogen shifts. A significant effect of the counter ion on some chemical shifts of the nuclei under discussion of the pyridopyrimidines is found, allowing the indirect detection of the anion, which is confirmed by direct measurement of the ³⁵Cl nucleus of the perchlorates.

One‐pot Combinatorial Synthesis of Benzo[4,5]imidazo‐[1,2‐a]thiopyrano[3,4‐d]pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one Derivatives

A series of novel fused tetracyclic benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2‐a]thiopyrano[3,4‐d]pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one derivatives were synthesized via the reaction of aryl aldehyde, 2H‐thiopyran‐3,5(4H,6H)‐dione, and 1H‐benzo[d]imidazol‐2‐amine in glacial acetic acid. This protocol features mild reaction conditions, high yields and short reaction time.     

Unambiguous structure elucidation of the reaction products of 3-acyl-4-methoxy-1-methylquinolinones with hydroxylamine via NMR spectroscopy

Reaction of 3-acyl-4-methoxy-1-methylquinolinones 2a,b with hydroxylamine has been investigated under different experimental conditions. Whereas compound 2a gives rise selectively and exclusively to the regioisomeric isoxazolo[4,5-c]- or isoxazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-4(5H)one (compound 3a or 4a, respectively), reaction of 2b always led to a mixture of the required isoxazole together with the oxazole derivative. Structural elucidation of all products has been independently achieved by multinuclear (¹³C and ¹⁵N) magnetic resonance spectroscopy.     

Heterocyclic analogs of xanthiones: 5,6‐fused 3‐methyl‐1‐phenylpyrano[2,3‐c]pyrazol‐4(1H) thiones—synthesis and NMR (1H, 13C, 15N) data

Various [5,6]pyrano[2,3‐c]pyrazol‐4(1H)‐thiones were synthesized in high yields by treatment of the corresponding [5,6]pyrano[2,3‐c]pyrazol‐4(1H)‐ones with Lawesson's reagent. Detailed NMR spectroscopic studies were undertaken of the title compounds. Complete and unambiguous assignment of chemical shifts (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N) and coupling constants (¹H,¹H; ¹³C,¹H) was achieved by the combined application of various one‐ and two‐dimensional (1D and 2D) NMR spectroscopic techniques. Unequivocal mapping of most ¹³C,¹H spin coupling constants is accomplished by 2D (δ, J) long‐range INEPT spectra with selective excitation. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Efficient Synthesis of New Tetracyclic Benzofuro[3,2-d]-imidazo[1,2-a] pyrimidine-2,5-(1 H,3 H)-diones

The aza‐Wittig reaction of iminophosphorane ( 1 ) with aromaic isocyanates gave carbodiimides ( 2 ), which were allowed to react further with (‐amino ester in the presence of a catalytic amount of sodium ethoxide to give selectively new tetracyclic benzofuro[3,2‐d]imidazo[1,2‐a]pyrimidine‐2,5‐(1H,3H)‐diones ( 5 ) in good yields. X‐ray structure analysis of 5i verified the proposed structure and the reaction selectivity.

This compound was prepared by rapid hydrogenation of the unstable Diels-Alder adduct obtained from the reaction between 3,4-dimethoxyfuran and 2,5-diacetoxy-1,4-benzoquinone. Full homonuclear hydrogen coupling constants measurements and molecular mechanics calculations were performed for the determination of the relative stereochemistry.     

Theoretical and experimental 1H, 13C and 15N NMR studies of N‐alkylation of substituted tetrazolo[1,5‐a]pyridines

The ¹⁵N as well as ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts of nine substituted tetrazolopyridines and their corresponding tetrazolopyridinium salts have been determined by using NMR spectroscopy at the natural abundance level of all nuclei in CD₃CN. In this paper, we report, for the first time, the N‐alkylation reaction of electron deficient tetrazolopyridines. The treatment of tetrazolopyridines 5–13 with one equivalent of trialkyloxonium tetrafluoroborate leads to a mixture of two isomers, i.e. N3‐ and N2‐alkyl tetrazolo[1,5‐a]pyridinium salts. It has been observed that the N3‐isomer is always the major isomer, except in the case of the CF₃ substituent, where the two isomers are obtained in the same amount. The quaternary tetrazolopyridinium nitrogen N3 is shielded by around 100 ppm (parts per million) with respect to the parent tetrazolopyridine. Experimental data are interpreted by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, including solvent‐induced effects, within the conductor‐like polarizable continuum model (CPCM). Good agreements between theoretical and experimental ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR were found. The combination of multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy with gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) DFT calculations is a powerful tool in the structural elucidation for both neutral and cationic heterocycles and in the determination of the orientation of N‐alkylation of tetrazolopyridines.

1H and 13C NMR study of 5-substituted-4- (arylidene)amino-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones and 6-aryl-3-(D-gluco- pentitol-1-yl)-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b] [1,3,4]thiadiazines

Five 5-substituted-4-(arylidene)amino-2,4-dihydro-3H-1, 2,4-triazole-3-thiones (2a-2e) and seven 6-aryl-3-(D-gluco-pentitol-1-yl)-7H-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines (3a-3g) were synthesized. The complete 1H and 13C NMR chemical shift assignments were analyzed on one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques, including DEPT, NOE-DIF, COSY, gHMBC, and gHSQC.     

1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectroscopic characterization of unexpected degradation products of the nifedipine analogue bis(2‐cyanoethyl) 2,6‐dimethyl‐4‐(2‐nitrophenyl)‐1,4‐dihydro‐3,5‐pyridinedicarboxylate

In the course of saponification experiments with bis(2‐cyanoethyl) 2,6‐dimethyl‐4‐(2‐nitrophenyl)‐1,4‐dihydro‐3,5‐pyridinedicarboxylate ( 1 ), an analogue of the calcium channel blocker nifedipine, three unexpected degradation products were isolated. The compounds were identified as 3‐(2‐acetamido‐1‐carboxy‐1‐propenyl)‐1‐hydroxy‐2‐indolecarboxylic acid ( 3 ), 9‐hydroxy‐1,3‐dimethyl‐β‐carboline‐4‐carboxylic acid ( 4 ) and 6‐hydroxy‐2,4‐dimethyl‐5‐oxo‐5,6‐dihydrobenzo[c][2,7]naphthyridine‐1‐carboxylic acid ( 6 ). The structures of these compounds were deduced from one‐ and two‐dimensional ¹H, ¹³C and natural abundance ¹⁵N NMR experiments (¹H,¹H‐COSY, gs‐HSQC, gs‐HMBC, ¹⁵N gs‐HMBC), and corroborated by comparison of their NMR data with the respective data for structurally similar compounds.

13C and 15N NMR chemical shifts of 1-(2',4'-dinitrophenyl) and 1-(2',4',6'-trinitrophenyl) pyrazoles in the solid state and in solution

The (13)C and (15)N CPMAS NMR spectra of 18 pyrazoles substituted at position 1 by dinitrophenyl and trinitrophenyl (picryl) groups have been recorded. To help in the assignments, some of these compounds were studied in DMSO-d(6) solution. Phenomena such as the conformation of the N-aryl groups and broadening of splittings due to quadrupolar nuclei are discussed.     

NMR spectroscopic and theoretical study on the isomerism of dimethyl benzodiazepine(diylidene)diacetates

The isomerism of dimethyl 2,2′-(7,8-dichloro-1H-benzo[b][1,4]diazepine-2,4-(3H,5H)diylidene)diacetate ( 1a ) and dimethyl 2,2′-(7,8-dichloro-3-methyl-1H-benzo[b][1,4]diazepine-2,4-(3H,5H)diylidene)diacetate ( 1b ) was investigated by ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In CDCl₃ solution, inversion of the diazepine ring was observed, whereas in (D₆)DMSO and (D₇)DMF solution, besides the ring inversion, a partial cleavage of one chelate ring appeared connected with (E/Z) isomerization about one of the exocyclic C=C bonds. Gibbs free energies (ΔG) and free activation energies (ΔG^≠) were calculated based on B3PW91-SCRF/ZVP DFT computations. Agreement between NMR data and density functional theory (DFT) computations was found.
