1H, 13C, 15N and 195Pt NMR studies of Au(III) and Pt(II) chloride organometallics with 2‐phenylpyridine

¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N and ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR studies of gold(III) and platinum(II) chloride organometallics with N(1),C(2′)‐chelated, deprotonated 2‐phenylpyridine (2ppy*) of the formulae [Au(2ppy*)Cl₂], trans(N,N)‐[Pt(2ppy*)(2ppy)Cl] and trans(S,N)‐[Pt(2ppy*)(DMSO‐d₆)Cl] (formed in situ upon dissolving [Pt(2ppy*)(µ‐Cl)]₂ in DMSO‐d₆) were performed. All signals were unambiguously assigned by HMBC/HSQC methods and the respective ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N coordination shifts (i.e. differences between chemical shifts of the same atom in the complex and ligand molecules: Δ^1H_coord = δ^1H_complex ? δ^1H_ligand, Δ^13C_coord = δ^13C_complex ? δ^13C_ligand, Δ^15N_coord = δ^15N_complex ? δ^15N_ligand), as well as ¹⁹⁵Pt chemical shifts and ¹H‐¹⁹⁵Pt coupling constants discussed in relation to the known molecular structures. Characteristic deshielding of nitrogen‐adjacent H(6) protons and metallated C(2′) atoms as well as significant shielding of coordinated N(1) nitrogens is discussed in respect to a large set of literature NMR data available for related cyclometallated compounds.

NMR study of E/Z isomerism in N‐alkoxybenzoimidic acid derivatives

Well defined E/Z isomers of N‐methoxy‐p‐nitrobenzimidoyl chloride, N‐methoxybenzimidoyl chloride, methyl N‐methylbenzohydroximate and ethyl N‐hydroxybenzimidate were prepared in order to provide model data for studies of benzhydroximic acid derivatives and related compounds. NMR parameters [¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N chemical shifts and ¹J(¹³C, ¹³C) coupling constants] were determined. The results show that stereochemically most significant are the values of ¹J(¹³C, ¹³C) couplings between aromatic C_ipso and C?N carbons and that the relationship, |J_cis| > |J_trans|, known for this coupling from oximes, is not affected by electronegative substituents at the C?N carbon atom, but the values are.

Structural peculiarities of configurational isomers of 1‐styrylpyrroles according to 1Н, 13С and 15N NMR spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations: electronic and steric hindrance for planar structure

Comparative analysis of the ¹Н and ¹³С NMR data for a series of the E and Z‐1‐styrylpyrroles, E and Z‐1‐(1‐propenyl)pyrroles, 1‐vinylpyrroles and styrene suggests that the conjugation between the unsaturated fragments in the former compounds is reduced. This is the result of the mutual influence of the donor p–π and π–π conjugation having opposite directions. According to the NMR data combined with the density functional theory calculations, the Z isomer of 1‐styrylpyrrole has essentially a nonplanar structure because of the steric hindrance. However, the E isomer of 1‐styrylpyrrole is also an out‐of‐plane structure despite the absence of a sterical barrier for the planar one. Deviation of the E isomer from the planar structure seems to be caused by an electronic hindrance produced by a mutual influence of the p–π and π–π conjugation. The structure of the E isomer of the 2‐substituted 1‐styrylpyrroles is similar to that of the 2‐substituted 1‐vinylpyrroles. The steric effects in the Z isomer of the 2‐substituted 1‐styrylpyrroles result in the large increase of the dihedral angle between planes of the pyrrole ring and double bond.

Synthesis,NMR spectroscopic characterization and structure of a divinyldisilazane‐(triphenylphosphine)platinum(0) complex: observation of isotope‐induced chemical shifts 1Δ12/13C(195Pt)

Tetramethyldivinyldisilazane‐(triphenylphosphine)platinum(0) was prepared, characterized in solid state by X‐ray crystallography and in solution by multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ²⁹Si, ³¹P and ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR). Numerous signs of spin–spin coupling constants were determined by two‐dimensional heteronuclear shift correlations (HETCOR) and two‐dimensional ¹H/¹H COSY experiments. Isotope‐induced chemical shifts ¹Δ^12/13C(¹⁹⁵Pt) were measured from ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR spectra of the title compound as well as of other Pt(0), Pt(II) and Pt(IV) compounds for comparison. In contrast to other heavy nuclei such as ¹⁹⁹Hg or ²⁰⁷Pb, the “normal” shifts of the heavy isotopomers to low frequencies are found, covering a range of >500 ppb.

13C‐NMR detection of STD spectra

We have investigated the use of ¹³C for the detection of saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR spectra. By detecting the STD spectrum in the ¹³C channel it is possible to eliminate the residual water signal in the STD‐NMR spectrum. We have employed an INEPT transfer in order to shift the magnetization from the proton channel to ¹³C. As a sample system to check our method we have used human serum albumin and phenylalanine. We have shown that such a transfer can be accomplished and gives reasonable signal intensities. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Experimental and quantum‐chemical studies of 1H, 13C and 15N NMR coordination shifts in Au(III), Pd(II) and Pt(II) chloride complexes with picolines

¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR studies of gold(III), palladium(II) and platinum(II) chloride complexes with picolines, [Au(PIC)Cl₃], trans‐[Pd(PIC)₂Cl₂], trans/cis‐[Pt(PIC)₂Cl₂] and [Pt(PIC)₄]Cl₂, were performed. After complexation, the ¹H and ¹³C signals were shifted to higher frequency, whereas the ¹⁵N ones to lower (by ca 80–110 ppm), with respect to the free ligands. The ¹⁵N shielding phenomenon was enhanced in the series [Au(PIC)Cl₃] < trans‐[Pd(PIC)₂Cl₂] < cis‐[Pt(PIC)₂Cl₂] < trans‐[Pt(PIC)₂Cl₂]; it increased following the Pd(II) → Pt(II) replacement, but decreased upon the trans → cis‐transition. Experimental ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR chemical shifts were compared to those quantum‐chemically calculated by B3LYP/LanL2DZ + 6‐31G**//B3LYP/LanL2DZ + 6‐31G*.

Z and E rotamers of N‐formyl‐1‐bromo‐4‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxymorphinan‐6‐one and their interconversion as studied by 1H/13C NMR spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations

N‐Formyl‐1‐bromo‐4‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxymorphinan‐6‐one (compound 2 ), an important intermediate in the NIH Opiate Total Synthesis, presumably exists as a mixture of two rotamers (Z and E) in both CHCl₃ and DMSO at room temperature due to the hindered rotation of its N‐C18 bond in the amide moiety. By comparing the experimental ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts of a single rotamer and the mixture of compound 2 in CDCl₃ with the calculated chemical shifts of the geometry optimized Z and E rotamers utilizing density functional theory, the crystalline rotamer of compound 2 was characterized as having the E configuration. The energy barrier between the two rotamers was also determined with the temperature dependence of ¹H and ¹³C NMR coalescence experiments, and then compared with that from the reaction path for the interconversion of the two rotamers calculated at the level of B3LYP/6‐31G*. Detailed geometry of the ground state and the transition states of both rotamers are given and discussed.

Diels–Alder reaction of 2,7‐dichloroquinoline‐5,8‐dione with a thiazole o‐quinodimethane. Assignment of the regiochemistry by 1H–13C HMBC correlations

The Diels–Alder reaction between a thiazole o‐quinodimethane and 4,6‐dichloroquinoline‐5,8‐dione gave 6‐chloro‐9‐azaanthra[2,3‐b]thiazole‐5,10‐dione as a single regioisomer. Its structure was assigned by 2D ¹H–¹³C HMBC short‐ and long‐range correlations. Measuring the spectra in CF₃CO₂D indicated that both nitrogen atoms of pyridine and thiazole rings are deuterated.

1H, 13C, 17O NMR and quantum‐chemical study of the stereochemistry of the sulfoxide and sulfone derivatives of 3‐arylidene‐1‐thioflavan‐4‐one epoxides

The oxidation of the trans,cis‐( 2 ) and trans,trans‐epoxides ( 3 ) of differently substituted (Z)‐3‐arylidene‐1‐thioflavan‐4‐ones ( 1 ) with dimethyldioxirane (DMD) yielded the appropriate sulfoxides ( 4, 5 ) and sulfones ( 6, 7 ). The structures were elucidated by the extensive application of one‐ and two‐dimensional ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁷O NMR spectroscopy. The conformational analysis was achieved by the application of ³J(C,H) coupling constants, NOESY responses and ab initio calculations. The preferred ground‐state conformers (twisted envelope‐A, twisted envelope‐B for 6 and twisted envelope‐A, envelope‐B for 7 ) were obtained as global minima of the theoretical ab initio MO study and also the examination of the ¹⁷O and ¹³C chemical shifts, calculated for the global minima structures of the sulfone isomers by the GIAO method. Analogous results, obtained for the sulfoxide isomers ( 4, 5 ), not only led to the preferred conformers but also gave evidence for the trans arrangement of the 2‐Ph group and the oxygen atom of the S?O group. Chemical shift differences between the isomers, sulfoxides and sulfones were corroborated by ab initio calculations of the anisotropic effects of the oxirane ring and the S?O and SO₂ groups.

Study of conformations and hydrogen bonds in the configurational isomers of pyrrole‐2‐carbaldehyde oxime by 1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectroscopy combined with MP2 and DFT calculations and NBO analysis

The ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR studies have shown that the E and Z isomers of pyrrole‐2‐carbaldehyde oxime adopt preferable conformation with the syn orientation of the oxime group with respect to the pyrrole ring. The syn conformation of E and Z isomers of pyrrole‐2‐carbaldehyde oxime is stabilized by the N? H···N and N? H···O intramolecular hydrogen bonds, respectively. The N? H···N hydrogen bond in the E isomer causes the high‐frequency shift of the bridge proton signal by about 1 ppm and increase the ¹J(N, H) coupling by ～3 Hz. The bridge proton shows further deshielding and higher increase of the ¹J(N, H) coupling constant due to the strengthening of the N? H···O hydrogen bond in the Z isomer. The MP2 calculations indicate that the syn conformation of E and Z isomers is by ～3.5 kcal/mol energetically less favorable than the anti conformation. The calculations of ¹H shielding and ¹J(N, H) coupling in the syn and anti conformations allow the contribution to these constants from the N? H···N and N? H···O hydrogen bondings to be estimated. The NBO analysis suggests that the N? H···N hydrogen bond in the E isomer is a pure electrostatic interaction while the charge transfer from the oxygen lone pair to the antibonding orbital of the N? H bond through the N? H···O hydrogen bond occurs in the Z isomer. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Combined 1H, 13C and 11B NMR and mass spectral assignments of boronate complexes of D‐(+)‐glucose,D‐(+)‐mannose,methyl‐α‐D‐glucopyranoside,methyl‐β‐D‐galactopyranoside and methyl‐α‐D‐mannopyranoside

Complex formation between N‐butylboronic acid and D ‐(+)‐glucose, D ‐(+)‐mannose, methyl‐α‐D ‐glucopyranoside, methyl‐β‐D ‐galactopyranoside and methyl α‐D ‐mannopyranoside under neutral conditions was investigated by ¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹B NMR spectroscopy and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) D ‐(+)‐Glucose and D ‐(+)‐mannose formed complexes where the boronates are attached to the 1,2:4,6‐ and 2,3:5,6‐positions of the furanose forms, respectively. On the other hand, the boronic acid binds to the 4,6‐positions of the two methyl derivatives of glucose and galactose. Methyl α‐D ‐mannopyranoside binds two boronates at the 2,3:4,6‐positions. ¹¹B NMR was used to show the ring size of the complexed sugars and the boronate. GC–MS confirmed the assignments.
