Analysis of 1H and 13C{1H} NMR Spectral Parameters and Geometries of Three Isomeric Diphenylbicyclo[2.2.1]Hept-5-Ene-2,3-Dicarboxylic Anhydrides

Diels-Alder adducts of 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene and maleic anhydride were investigated by recording the ¹H and ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectra of three isomeric diphenylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene endo and exo 2,3-dianhydrides. the spectra were recorded in CD₂Cl₂ and analysed completely. the effect of the endo and exo configuration of the anhydride ring on the chemical shifts of the bridgehead phenyl protons is discussed. the ortho protons of the exo isomers resonate at higher field than those of the endo isomer, and the resonance pattern of the aromatic protons is narrower in the exo than the endo anhydride. the aromatic regions of the spectra are compared with the same regions of the ¹H NMR spectra of the earlier investigated addition products of 1,4-di-p-tolyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene and 1-phenyl-4-p-tolyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene with maleic anhydride. Chemical shifts of the bridge protons are explained on the basis of X-ray data of the compounds and MacroModel calculations on the minimum energy conformations.     

Assignment of the 1H and 13C Spectra of 5-Methylthio-4H-1-(p-R1-phenyl)-3a-(p-R2-phenyl)-3a,4-dihydro (1,2,4) oxadiazolo(4,5-a), 1,5-benzodiazepines using 2D NMR Spectroscopy.

The ¹H NMR spectra of the title benzodiazepines derivatives is highly congested because all the protons are in aromatic enviroment so many proton signals remain overlap even 300 MHz or higher fields. With this in mind, the assignment of the ¹H and ¹³C spectra of these compounds obtained using COSY, NOESY, HMQC and HMBC experiments is reported.     

1H and 13C NMR Spectral Study of Some 2r-Aryl-6c-phenylthian-4-ones,Their 1-Oxides and 1,1-Dioxides

ABSTRACT

Four 2r-aryl-6c-phenylthian-4-ones 1b?1e and their 1-oxides 2b?2e and 1,1-dioxides 3b?3e have been newly synthesized. ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra have been recorded for all these compounds and 2r,6c-diphenylthian-4-one 1-oxide 2a. ¹³C NMR spectrum has been recorded for the sulfone 3a of 1a. For selected compounds ¹H-¹H COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY spectra have been recorded. The vicinal proton–proton coupling constants suggest that in all these compounds, the heterocyclic ring adopts chair conformation with equatorial orientations of the aryl and phenyl groups. Proton and carbon chemical shifts suggest that in the sulfoxides, the S=O bond is axial and enhances the J _aa value by some special effect. The S = O bond causes a significant upfield shift even on carbons without hydrogens. Significant solvent shifts also were observed.

Comparisons of the results with related spiro chamigrene systems are also presented.     

Azetidin‐2‐one Versus Chroman‐2‐one: Application of 1H‐13C COSY NMR and Mass Spectroscopy in Structure Elucidation–Class of Compounds

Azetidin‐2‐ones, commonly known as β‐lactams, constitute a biologically important class of compound. Treatment of azetidin‐2‐ones with alkali is known to form diverse types of compounds depending on the stability of the ring. In many cases, the ring is retained in the product at the cost of transformation of substituents. Spectroscopy is the most important tool to characterize the organic compounds. However, in some cases the structures of the products are so closely related that simple IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectra do not lead to unambiguous structure elucidation. This article reports a novel application of ¹H‐¹³C COSY NMR and mass spectroscopy in determining unequivocally an azetidin‐2‐one ring structure instead of a chroman‐2‐one ring structure for the product obtained by treatment of 1‐benzhydryl‐3,3‐bis(4‐methylphenyl)‐4‐[2‐(o‐dip‐tolylacyl)hydroxyphenyl]‐2‐azetidinone with ethanolic sodium hydroxide at room temperature.     

NMR Studies of Hindered Rotation and Magnetic Anisotropy: The Diels–Alder Adducts of Phencyclone with N‐Phenylmaleimide and N‐(2‐Trifluoromethylphenyl)maleimide. Ab Initio Calculations for Optimized Structures

Abstract

N‐Phenylmaleimide, 2, and N‐(2‐trifluoromethylphenyl)maleimide, 3, were separately added to phencyclone, 1, to yield the corresponding phencyclone Diels–Alder adducts, 4 and 5. The resulting adducts (and some precursors) have been characterized by one‐ and two‐dimensional ¹H and ¹³C NMR at 300 and 75 MHz, and by ¹⁹F NMR at 282 MHz, at ambient temperatures. The NMR data are consistent, for both adducts, with: (a) hindered rotation of the bridgehead unsubstituted phenyl groups about the C(sp²)–C(sp³) bonds, based on slow exchange limit (SEL) spectra and (b) endo adduct configuration based on magnetic anisotropic effects in the ¹H NMR. The NMR spectra of the phencyclone adduct, 4, of N‐phenylmaleimide, indicate free rotation on the NMR timescales (fast exchange limit, FEL spectra) about the N‐phenyl bond. The spectra for the adduct, 5, of N‐(2‐trifluoromethylphenyl)maleimide are interpreted as consistent with SEL regimes, for the N‐aryl rotations, with a single rotamer present in which the trifluoromethyl group is directed “out of” the adduct cavity, and away from the phenanthrenoid moiety. This conclusion is based, in part, on NMR data suggesting the apparent slow N‐aryl bond rotation in a pair of atropisomers corresponding to the acetic acid addition products from the N‐(2‐trifluoromethylphenyl)maleimide. Evidence of magnetic anisotropic effects due to the phenanthrenoid moiety and proximal carbonyls is discussed. ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁹F assignments are presented and interpreted. Molecular modeling calculations at the Hartree–Fock level, 6‐31G* basis set, were performed to provide geometry optimizations for energy‐minimized structures of selected compounds.     

Proton Dynamics in Letovicite, (NH4)3H(SO4)2: A H and N NMR Spectroscopic Study

The improper ferroelastic phase letovicite (NH₄)₃H(SO₄)₂ has been studied by ¹H MAS NMR as well as by static ¹⁴N NMR experiments in the temperature range of 296–425 K. The ¹H MAS NMR resonance from ammonium protons can be well distinguished from that of acidic protons. A third resonance appears just below the phase transition temperature which is due to the acidic protons in the paraelastic phase. The lowering of the second moment M₂ for the ammonium protons takes place in the same temperature range as the formation of domain boundaries, while the signals of the acidic protons suffer a line narrowing in the area of T_c. The static ¹⁴N NMR spectra confirm the temperature of the motional changes of the ammonium tetrahedra. Two-dimensional ¹H NOESY spectra indicate a chemical exchange between ammonium protons and the acidic protons of the paraphase.     

Determination of the Stereochemistry of Substituted 5-Methylenehydantoins and Thiohydantoins by 13C NMR and Homonuclear NOE Experiments

Basically the aim of this work is to define the accurate configuration of the exocyclic double bond of substituted 5-methylenehydantoins and thiohydantoins which have been conceived as potential Aldose Reductase inhibitors. A previsional survey based upon the chemical shifts analysis from ¹H and decoupled ¹³C NMR spectra discloses, for a part of the family of compounds, the assignment of the Zconfiguration for unsubstituted (2,3) and N-3 substituted (6,7,9) derivatives, and the E-configuration for the N-1 substituted (8,11) ones. The qualitative study with Homonuclear NOE (8,11) and the coupling constant measuring ^{3 J}C4-C=C-H6 from coupled ¹³C NMR (1–11), lead to the assignment of the accurate configuration of the whole family's compounds in agreement with the previsional study.     

Proton and Carbon - 13 NMR Assignments for Fluorinated and Nonfluorinated Aromatic Ketimines

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of three aromatic ketimines with varying degrees of fluoro substitution have been extensively studied using one and two dimensional techniques. COSY experiments were conducted to identify the protons on each of the aromatic groups, HETCORR experiments were then utilized to identify the corresponding carbon atoms, and then the order of the carbon atoms was established by long-range HETCORR (HRTCORRLR) results. These studies have allowed rigorous assignments to be made for most of the carbon and hydrogen atoms present in these compounds. Fluorine splittings were very helpful in the analyses. In the course of this study, the NMR absorbances (¹H and ¹³C) of related aldimines have also been assigned. This constitutes the first report on the assignments of ¹H and ¹³C absorbances for ketimines. The observed spectral properties suggest that the structure of aromatic ketimines is one in which the aromatic rings are in three different planes. Two of the aromatic rings, the N-substituted ring and the C-substituted ring in the cis configuration, are twisted substantially out of the plane with respect to the -C=N- bond. The remaining C-substituted aromatic ring, trans to the N-substituted ring, lies in the deshielding zone of the imine bond.     

Structural Assignment of Isomeric S‐ and S,N‐1‐Alkoxycarbonylalkylated 6‐Amino‐2‐thiouracil Derivatives by Means of 1H and 13C NMR Spectroscopy

Abstract

The structures of new isomeric 2‐alkoxycarbonylalkylthio‐ and 2‐alkoxy‐ carbonylalkylthio‐1‐alkoxycarbonylalkyl‐6‐aminouracils (1–21) have been established on the basis of the ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectroscopic data. The ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra of 1–21 have been fully assigned by a combination of two‐dimensional experiments [heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence (HMQC) and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC)]. The ¹³C NMR spectra have been shown to be able to differentiate between isomers.

Application of a New Program,H1MACH,for Prediction of Iridoid Skeletons

Abstract

A procedure is presented that utilizes ¹H NMR for prediction of the skeleton of iridoids. A new program was developed, named H1MACH, that presents a database with 800 data points from the ¹H NMR spectra of iridoids. This program was widely tested for the prediction of the skeleton of 40 compounds and compared with other programs in the expert system SISTEMAT. The results obtained show that H1MACH is very useful for the prediction of the skeleton of iridoids, especially for the iridane skeleton.     

A C solid-state NMR analysis of vitamin D compounds

¹³C cross-polarization/magic-angle spinning (CP/MAS) solid-state NMR spectroscopy has been employed to analyze four vitamin D compounds, namely vitamin D3 (D3), vitamin D2 (D2), and the precursors ergosterol (Erg) and 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC). The ¹³C NMR spectrum of D3 displays a doublet pattern for each of the carbon atoms, while that of Erg contains both singlet and doublet patterns. In the cases of 7DHC and D2, the ¹³C spectra display various multiplet patterns, viz. singlets, doublets, triplets, and quartets. To overcome the signal overlap between the ¹³C resonances of protonated and unprotonated carbons, we have subjected these vitamin D compounds to 1D ¹H-filtered ¹³C CP/MAS and {¹H}/¹³C heteronuclear correlation (Hetcor) NMR experiments. As a result, assisted by solution NMR data, all of the ¹³C resonances have been successfully assigned to the respective carbon atoms of these vitamin D compounds. The ¹³C multiplets are interpreted due to the presence of s-cis and s-trans configurations in the α- and β-molecular conformers, consistent with computer molecular modeling determined by molecular dynamics and energy minimization calculations. To further characterize the ring conformations in D3, we have successfully extracted chemical shift tensor elements for the ¹³C doublets. It is demonstrated that ¹³C solid-state NMR spectroscopy provides a robust and high sensitive means of characterizing molecular conformations in vitamin D compounds.     

13C NMR Chemical Shifts of Heterocycles: Empirical Substituent Effects in 5-Halomethylisoxazoles

Evaluation by empirically derived equations for the Substituent effect (α, β, γ, δ) on the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts for C-3, C-4. C-5 and halomethyl-substituent carbon (C-6) in isoxazoles 1-5 [where C-3 substituent (R¹) = H, alkyl or phenyl, C-4 Substituent (R²) = H, alkyl, and C-5 substituent (R³) = di-or trihalomethyl, methyl and H], taking as reference the compound la, is reported. From the calculated values for the α, β, γ, δ effects for each substituent it was possible to estimate the chemical shift of each carbon of the compounds 1–5. The ¹³ C chemical shifts of the C-3, C-4, C-5, C-6 of these compounds, can be estimated with good precision: 94% of the calculated chemical shifts are found to be within ±1.0ppm, and 100% are found to be within ±1.5ppm.     

NMR Studies of Hindered Rotation. The Diels-Alder Adduct of N-n-Butylmaleimide With Phencyclone: Restricted Motion of Bridgehead Phenyls

The Diels-Alder adduct of phencyclone and N-n-butylmaleimide has been prepared, and NMR studies have been carried out in CDCl₃ solution at ambient temperatures by one-and two-dimensional ¹H NMR (300 MHz) and ¹³C NMR (75 MHz) techniques. The resulting spectra appear to be consistent with slow rotation about the hindered C(sp²)-C(sp³) bonds to the bridgehead unsubstituted phenyls, i.e., slow exchange limit (SEL) spectra. Full rigorous ¹H spectral assignments have been made via high-resolution COSY experiments. The number of signals in the ¹³C NMR aryl region were also consistent with hindered phenyl rotations; preliminary ¹³C assignments are given. Striking evidence for magnetic anisotropic effects due to the phenanthrene moiety, bridging ketone carbonyl, and bridgehead phenyls are discussed, supporting endo stereochemical assignment of the adduct.     

Isotope Effects on theO,H Coupling Constant and theO–{H} Nuclear Overhauser Effect in Water

The NMR spectra of solutions of 30%¹⁷O-enriched H₂O and D₂O in nitromethane display the resonances of the three isotopomers H₂O, HDO, and D₂O. All¹⁷O,¹H and¹⁷O,²H coupling constants and the primary and secondary isotope effects onJ(¹⁷O,¹H) have been determined. The primary effect is −1.0 ± 0.2 Hz and the secondary effect is −0.07 ± 0.04 Hz. Using integrated intensities in the¹⁷O NMR spectra, the equilibrium constant for the reaction H₂O + D₂O 2HDO is found to be 3.68 ± 0.2 at 343 K. From the relative integrated intensities of proton-coupled and -decoupled spectra the¹⁷O–{¹H} NOE is estimated for the first time, resulting in values of 0.908 and 0.945 for H₂O and HDO, respectively. This means that dipole–dipole interactions contribute about 2.5% to the overall¹⁷O relaxation rate in H₂O dissolved in nitromethane.
