NMR studies on 1,2‐dihydro‐2‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐4‐[4‐(4‐aminophenoxy)‐4‐phenyl]‐(2H)phthalazin‐1‐one

An unsymmetrical heterocyclic diamine, 1,2‐dihydro‐2‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐4‐[4‐(4‐aminophenoxy)‐4‐phenyl]‐(2H)phthalazin‐1‐one, was synthesized. Its ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra were completely assigned by utilizing the two‐dimensional heteronuclear ¹³C–¹H multiple‐bond coherence (HMBC) spectroscopy, and heteronuclear ¹³C–¹H one‐bond correlation spectroscopy, homonuclear shift correlation spectroscopy (H,H‐COSY) and rotating frame Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (ROESY). The structure of the compound was shown to be the phthalazinone rather than the phthalazine ether from cross peaks and chemical shifts of the protons. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

One‐step synthesis of 6‐acetamido‐3‐(N‐(2‐(dimethylamino) ethyl) sulfamoyl) naphthalene‐1‐yl 7‐acetamido‐4‐hydroxynaphthalene‐2‐sulfonate and its characterization with 1D and 2D NMR techniques

A one‐step method was reported for the synthesis of 6‐acetamido‐3‐(N‐(2‐(dimethylamino) ethyl) sulfamoyl) naphthalene‐1‐yl 7‐acetamido‐4‐hydroxynaphthalene‐2‐sulfonate by treating 7‐acetamido‐4‐hydroxy‐2‐naphthalenesulfonyl chloride with equal moles of N, N‐dimethylethylenediamine in acetonitrile in the presence of K₂CO₃. The chemical structure of the obtained compounds was characterized by MS, FTIR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, gCOSY, TOCSY, gHSQC, and gHMBC. The chemical shift differences of ¹H and ¹³C being δ 0.04 and 0.2, respectively, were unambiguously differentiated. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

C?H···N and C?H···O intramolecular hydrogen bonding effects in the 1H, 13C and 15 N NMR spectra of the configurational isomers of 1‐vinylpyrrole‐2‐carbaldehyde oxime substantiated by DFT calculations

According to the ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopic data and DFT calculations, the E‐isomer of 1‐vinylpyrrole‐2‐carbaldehyde adopts preferable conformation with the anti‐orientation of the vinyl group relative to the carbaldehyde oxime group and with the syn‐arrangement of the carbaldehyde oxime group with reference to the pyrrole ring. This conformation is stabilized by the C? H···N intramolecular hydrogen bond between the α‐hydrogen of the vinyl group and the oxime group nitrogen, which causes a pronounced high‐frequency shift of the α‐hydrogen signal in ¹H NMR (～0.5 ppm) and an increase in the corresponding one‐bond ¹³C–¹H coupling constant (ca 4 Hz). In the Z‐isomer, the carbaldehyde oxime group turns to the anti‐position with respect to the pyrrole ring. The C? H···O intramolecular hydrogen bond between the H‐3 hydrogen of the pyrrole ring and the oxime group oxygen is realized in this case. Due to such hydrogen bonding, the H‐3 hydrogen resonance is shifted to a higher frequency by about 1 ppm and the one‐bond ¹³C–¹H coupling constant for this proton increases by ～5 Hz.

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.     

Synthesis and NMR characteristics of N‐acetyl‐4‐nitro,N‐acetyl‐5‐nitro,N‐acetyl‐6‐nitro and N‐acetyl‐7‐nitrotryptophan methyl esters

N‐acetyl‐4‐nitrotryptophan methyl ester (2), N‐acetyl‐5‐nitrotryptophan methyl ester (3), N‐acetyl‐6‐nitrotryptophan methyl ester (4) and N‐acetyl‐7‐nitrotryptophan methyl ester (5) were synthesized through a modified malonic ester reaction of the appropriate nitrogramine analogs followed by methylation with BF₃‐methanol. Assignments of the ¹H and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts were made using a combination of ¹H–¹H COSY, ¹H–¹³C HETCOR and ¹H–¹³C selective INEPT experiments. Copyright © 2008 Crown in the right of Canada.

Structure elucidation of [1,3]oxazolo[4,5‐e][2,1]benzisoxazole and naphtho[1,2‐d][1,3]‐ and phenanthro[9,10‐d]oxazoles using gradient selected gHMBC,gHMQC and gHMQC‐TOCSY NMR techniques

Structure elucidation of compounds in the benzisoxazole series ( 1 – 6 ) and naphtho[1,2‐d][1,3]‐ ( 7 – 10 ) and phenanthro[9,10‐d][1,3]oxazole ( 11 – 14 ) series was accomplished using extensive 2D NMR spectroscopic studies including ¹H–¹H COSY, long‐ range ¹H–¹H COSY, ¹H–¹³C COSY, gHMQC, gHMBC and gHMQC‐TOCSY experiments. The distinction between oxazole and isoxazole rings was made on the basis of the magnitude of heteronuclear one‐bond ¹J_{C2, H2} (or ¹J_{C3, H3}) coupling constants. Complete analysis of the ¹H NMR spectra of 11 – 14 was achieved by iterative calculations. Gradient selected gHMQC‐TOCSY spectra of phenanthro[9,10‐d][1,3]oxazoles 11 – 14 were obtained at different mixing times (12, 24, 36, 48 and 80 ms) to identify the spin system where the protons of phenanthrene ring at H‐5, H‐6 and at H‐9 and H‐7 and H‐8 were highly overlapping.

NMR analysis of 6‐(2′,3′‐dihydro‐1′H‐inden‐1′‐yl)‐1H‐indene

¹H, ¹³C and two‐dimensional NMR analyses were applied to determine the NMR parameters of 6‐(2′,3′‐dihydro‐1′H‐inden‐1′‐yl)‐1H‐indene. The measurements were accomplished with 0.5 mg of the substance, this quantity being sufficient to determine the chemical shifts of all the H and C atoms, and also the appropriate coupling constants and to give the complete NMR resonance assignments of the molecule. The predicted patterns of the four different H atoms of the methylene groups of the indane structural element coincided completely with the complex patterns in the NMR spectra.

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR resonances for 16 acridin‐9(10H)‐ones substituted with amino or (1,3‐benzothiazol‐2‐yl)amino groups were completely and unequivocally assigned by the concerted application of gs‐COSY, gs‐HMQC and gs‐HMBC experiments. Evidence for hydrogen bond and amino–imino tautomerism is presented for 1‐ and 4‐substituted acridin‐9(10H)‐ones. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

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.

NOESY,HOESY, T1 and solid‐state NMR studies on [RuH(η6‐toluene)(Binap)](CF3SO3): a molecule with a strongly distorted piano‐stool structure

Detailed solution‐NMR studies on the distorted ruthenium hydride complex [RuH(η⁶‐toluene)(Binap)](CF₃SO₃) (2) are reported. NOE‐spectroscopy, together with low‐temperature ¹H and ³¹P NMR data, reveals restricted rotation around a P—C bond for a specific axial P—phenyl ring with the activation energy determined via simulation. From ¹⁹F, ¹H HOESY data, the approach of the triflate anion relative to the hydride ligand is established. Comparison of the quadrupole coupling constant C_QF from both solution‐ and solid‐state MAS‐NMR on the deuteride [RuD(η⁶‐benzene)(Binap)](CF₃SO₃) (1‐D) provide information on the nature of the Ru—H bond.

Synthesis of Some 7H‐s‐Triazolo[3,4‐b]‐1,3,4‐thiadiazine Derivatives

The cyclization of 1‐amino‐2‐mercapto‐5‐[5‐methyl‐1‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl]‐1,3,4‐triazole with various α‐haloketone in absolute ethanol yields 7H‐3‐[5‐methyl‐1‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl]‐6‐substituted‐s‐triazolo[3,4‐b]‐1,3,4‐thiadiazines and their structures are established by elemental analysis, MS, IR and ¹H NMR spectral data.     

Conformational analysis. Part 40: a theoretical and NMR investigation of the conformations of cis‐ and trans‐cyclopentane‐1,3‐diol

The conformations of cis‐ ( 1 ) and trans‐cyclopentane‐1,3‐diol ( 2 ) have been studied by ab initio (Gaussian 98) and molecular mechanics (PCMODEL) calculations and by NMR spectroscopy. The calculations gave two low‐energy conformations for ( 1 ), 1A and 1B , both with axial hydroxyl groups. Two conformations with equatorial hydroxyl groups ( 1C and 1D ) were found but with much higher energy (ca 4.0 kcal mol^?1). Five low‐energy conformers were found for 2 . Four were envelope conformations and one a half‐chair. The complete analysis of the 400 MHz ¹H NMR spectra of 1 in a variety of solvents and 2 in chloroform was performed by extensive decoupling experiments, iterative computer analysis and spectral simulation. This gave all the H,H couplings in the molecule, including in 1 a long‐range ⁴J(H,H) coupling between H‐2cis and H‐4,5cis. The ³J(H,H) couplings were used to determine the conformer populations in these molecules. This was initially achieved using the Haasnoot, de Leeuw and Altona equation. to obtain the conformer couplings. It was found that this equation was not accurate for the C·CH₂·CH₂·C fragment in these molecules and the following equation was derived for this fragment from five‐ and six‐ membered cyclic compounds in fixed conformations: (1) The conformer populations were obtained by calculating the conformer couplings which were then compared with the observed couplings. Compound 1 in benzene solution is an approximately equal mixture of conformers 1A and 1B with small (<4%) amounts of 1C and 1D . In the polar solvents acetone and acetonitrile the populations of 1A and 1B are again equal, with 20% of 1C and <2% of 1D . In 2 the major conformers are 2B and 2D with small amounts of 2C , 2E and 2A . These novel findings are considered with previous data on cyclopentanol and cis‐ and trans‐cyclopentane‐1,2‐diol and it is shown that the axial hydroxyl substituent at the fold of the envelope appears to be a major factor in determining the conformational energies of these compounds.

Solid‐State and Solution Structural Studies of 4‐{[C(E)]‐1H‐Azol‐1‐ylimino)methyl}pyridin‐3‐ols

The new N‐salicylideneheteroarenamines 1 – 4 were prepared by reacting the biologically relevant 3‐hydroxy‐4‐pyridinecarboxaldehyde ( 5 ) with 1H‐imidazol‐1‐amine ( 6 ), 1H‐pyrazol‐1‐amine ( 7 ), 1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐1‐amine ( 8 ), and 1H‐1,3,4‐triazol‐1‐amine ( 9 ). Solution ¹H‐, ¹³C‐, and ¹⁵N‐NMR were used to establish that the hydroxyimino form A is the predominant tautomer. A combination of ¹³C‐ and ¹⁵N‐CPMAS‐NMR with X‐ray crystallographic studies confirms that the same form is present in the solid state. The stabilities and H‐bond geometries of the different forms, tautomers and rotamers, are discussed by using B3LYP/6‐31G** calculations.

One‐ and two‐dimensional NMR characterization of N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone/methyl acrylate copolymers

N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone/methyl acrylate (V/M) copolymers were prepared by free‐radical bulk polymerization using benzoyl peroxide as an initiator. The copolymer composition of these copolymers was calculated from ¹H NMR spectra. The radical reactivity ratios for N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (V) and methyl acrylate (M) were r_V = 0.09, r_M = 0.44. These reactivity ratios for the copolymerization of V and M were determined using the Kelen–Tudos and nonlinear least‐squares error‐in‐variable methods. The ¹³C{¹H} and ¹H NMR spectra of these copolymers overlapped and were complex. The complete spectral assignment of the ¹³C and ¹H NMR spectra were done with distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer and two dimensional ¹³C‐¹H heteronuclear single quantum correlation spectroscopic experiments. The two‐dimensional ¹H‐¹H homonuclear total correlation spectroscopic NMR spectrum showed the various bond interactions, thus inferring the possible structure of the copolymers. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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.

Long‐range heteronuclear coupling constants in 2,6‐disubstituted purine derivatives

Four‐ and five‐bond heteronuclear J‐couplings between the hydrogen H‐8 and carbons C‐6 and C‐2 in a series of 7‐ and 9‐benzyl substituted purine derivaties with variuous substituents in positions 2 and 6 were studied by coupled ¹³ C NMR and H,C‐HMBC experiments and by DFT calculations. We have found that for some of the derivatives, the five‐bond coupling H8‐C2 is higher than the four‐bond H8‐C6 coupling, which is also evidenced by a stronger crosspeak in the HMBC. This finding contradicts the generally accepted opinion that only strong three‐bond crosspeaks and one weak four‐bond H8‐C6 crosspeak can be observed in the HMBC spectra of purine derivatives. The misinterpretation of HMBC spectra may lead to an incorrect determination of the purine derivatives' structure. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Molecular structures of regioisomeric 7‐arylidene hexahydroindazoles from 1H NMR spectra

The structural characterization of two regioisomeric products of the interaction of 2,6‐bis‐(4‐methoxybenzylidene)‐3R‐methylcyclohexanone with methyl hydrazine was achieved using ¹H NMR spectral data, including chemical shifts, coupling constants and results of COSY and nuclear overhauser effect (NOE) experiments. Configurations of the new chiral centers in the (3S,3aR,6R,7E)‐7‐(4‐methoxybenzylidene)‐3,4,5,7‐hexahydro‐3‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)‐2,6‐dimethyl‐ and 2,4‐dimethyl‐2H‐indazoles were assigned on the basis of experimental data combined with molecular modeling by the density functional theory (DFT) method. The distinction in the helical twisting power of studied compounds under addition to a nematic liquid crystal is discussed on the basis of peculiarities of the molecular structures.
