NMR Studies of Hindered Rotation. The Diels-Alder Adduct of Phencyclone with Maleic Anhydride: Restricted Motion of Bridgehead Phenyls

¹H NMR studies at 300 MHz have been performed for the Diels-Alder adduct of phencyclone and maleic anhydride in CDCl₃ at ambient temperatures. The 1D spectrum shows four equal (2H) intensity doublets in the aryl region (in addition to other absorptions) which is fully consistent with a slow exchange limit (SEL) spectrum of a system in which the unsubstituted bridgehead phenyls exhibit hindered rotation around the C(sp²)-C (sp³) bond on the NMR timescale. These protons are assigned to H-1,8 and H-4,5 of the phenanthrene moiety and to H-2′ and H-6′ of the phenvls based on the two-dimensional (2D) homonuclear chemical shift correlation spectrum (COSY) together with arguments regarding carbonyl and aromatic ring anisotropy. Full proton assignments are given.     

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.     

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

The Diels-Alder adduct of phencyclone and N-n-propylmaleimide has been studied in CDCl₃ solution at ambient temperatures by one-and two-dimensional ¹H NMR (300 MHz) and ¹³C NMR (75 MHz) techniques. Clear evidence is presented from slow exchange limit (SEL) spectra for hindered rotation of the bridgehead phenyls in the adduct. Full ¹H spectral assignments have been made via selective homonuclear decoupling and high resolution COSY experiments. The number of signals in the aryl region of ¹³C NMR spectra also indicated slow rotation about the C(sp²)-C(sp³) bond to the unsubstantiated bridgehead phenyls. Striking evidence of magnetic anisotropic effects, seen from ¹H NMR, permits stereochemical assignment of the adduct as endo.

The influence of the substitution of the oxygen at C₂ and/or C₄ with the sulphur, and of the hydrogen at C₅ wlth the methyls and phenyls has been considered. The ¹J(¹⁵N-¹H)'s found In thls serles of molecules agrees well with the expected values.     

NMR Studies of Hindered Rotation. The Diels-Alder Adduct of 4-Methyl-1, 2, 4-triazoline-3, 5-dione with Phencyclone: Restricted Motion of Unsubstituted Bridgehead Phenyls.

4-Methyl-1, 2, 4-triazoline-3, 5-dione was produced by lead tetraacetate oxidation of 4-methylurazole and allowed to react with phencyclone, 1-The resulting Diels-Alder adduct, 2, has been characterized by one-and two-dimensional ¹H and ¹³C NMR at 300 and 75 MHz, respectively, at ambient temperatures in different solvents. The NMR data are consistent with hindered rotation of the bridgehead unsubstituted phenyl groups about the C(sp²)-C(sp³) bonds, based on numbers of absorption signals in the ¹H and ¹³C NMR aryl region, together with magnetic anisotropic effects in the ¹H spectrum. The spectral simplicity suggests further that stereochemistry at the ring junction nitrogens involves only a single isomer or very rapidly interconverting “exo”/“endo” isomers (if the ring junction nitrogens are pyramidalized).     

Assignment of 13C Resonances in the Phencyclone-Norbornadiene Adduct Via 2D NMR. 13C Evidence for Hindered Rotation of Unsubstituted Bridgehead Phenyl Rings

¹³C NMR chemical shift assignments were obtained for the Diels-Alder adduct of phencyclone with norbornadiene in CD₂Cl₂ and in CDCl₃ solution. The ¹³C spectrum at 50.3 MHz, as well as the ¹H spectrum at 200.1 MHz, show evidence for hindered rotation of the two unsubstituted bridgehead phenyl rings of the adduct at ambient temperatures. In CD₂Cl₂ solution, all 19 of the unique ¹³C nuclei of this molecule give rise to individual ¹³C resonances. The ¹H assignments which were made earlier, together with one-bond and long-range 2D heteronuclear correlation experiments, allowed the assignment of all ¹³C chemical shifts in the molecule.     

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.     

1H and 13C n.m.r. Conformational Analysis of Adrenergic Drugs. Part 2. N-Isopropyl-N- {3-[4(4-Methoxybenzoylamino)Phenoxy]-2-Hydroxypropyl} Ammonium Chloride,a New β1-Blocking Agent

Abstract

Dynamic and structural features of N-Isopropyl-N- {3-[4(4-Methoxybenzoylamino)Phenoxy]-2-Hydroxypropyl} Ammonium Chloride in [²H₆]DMSO were investigated by measuring ¹³C and ¹H spin-lattice relaxation rates and ¹³C- {¹H} and ¹H- {¹H} n.O.e. Correlation times for main and internal reorientational motions were interpreted in terms of internal rotation around the two planal axes. Selective and double-selective ¹H spin-lattice relaxation rates were measured, wherefrom relevant proton-proton intramolecular distances were calculated. It was shown that the β₁? blocking agent assumes a preferred conformation where extensive intramolecular H-bonding prevents segmental motion along the quaternary ammonium sidechain.     

TOTAL ASSIGNMENT OF 1H AND 13C NMR SPECTRA OF A BRIDGED TRIRUTHENIUM CLUSTER-POLYPYRIDINE DIMER BASED ON 2D (COSY,HMQC, AND HMBC) TECHNIQUES

The bridged ruthenium cluster-polypyridine dimer [Ru₃O(CH₃COO)₆(py)₂(tmbpy)Ru(bpy)₂(Cl)](PF₆)₂ (py = pyridine, = 2, 2′-bipyridine and tmbpy = 4, 4′-trimethylenedipyridine) has been synthesized and structurally characterized based on ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. This species exhibits a complex pattern of NMR signals due to the presence of a paramagnetic [Ru₃O] core and seven non-equivalent aromatic rings. 2D NMR (COSY, HMQC and HMBC) correlation techniques have been required for the total assignment of the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra.     

1H and 13C NMR Spectra of Alditolyl Derivatives of 3-Hydrazino-5-Methyl[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole and Their Cyclized Products.

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of sugar (5-methyl [1, 2, 4]-triazino [5, 6-b] indol-3-yl) hydrazones (1), per-0-acetyl aldehydo sugar 1-acetyl-1-(5-methyl [1, 2, 4] triazino [5, 6-b]-indol-3-yl) hydrazones (2), l- (penta-0-acetyl-pentitol-1-yl)-10-methyl [l, 2, 4] triazolo [3′, 4′:3, 4] [l, 2, 4] triazino [5, 6-b]-indoles (3) have been investigated. The 2 D NMR (H, C COSY) spectrum of 2a has been studied.     

Synthesis,Spectroscopic Characterization and Redox Reactivity of Some New N-(2,6-Di-Tert-Butyl-L-Hydroxyphenyl) Salicylaldimines

New substituted N- (2,6-Di-tert-butyl-l-hydroxyphenyl) Salicylaldimines (L_xH) were prepared by the condensation of various hydroxy and methoxy salicylaldehyde derivatives and 2,6-Di-tert-butyl-4-aminophenol and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, ¹H NMR spectroscopy, as well as ESR studies of the oxidation products of L_xH. It was found that L_xH, unlike analogous electron-withdrawing C1, Br, NO₂ bearing derivatives, in the solid state exist both in associated and non-associated forms. UV-Vis and ¹H, NMR studies show that L_xH in solutions exists both in phenolimine and ketoamine tautomer forms. In addition, alcohol solutions of L_xH exhibited a new band in the region of 630-675 run. The ESR studies of one -electron oxidation of L_xH, in the condition of THF, CHC1₃ and toluene solutions at 300 K, indicate the formation of corresponding primary or secondary phenoxyl radicals. It was found that the stability and conversion pathway of the primary phenoxyl radicals are dependent upon both kind and position of the substituents in salicylaldehyde moiety of L_xH. For some L_xH without observation of primary phenoxyl radicals, the secondary Coppinger's type radical was detected. The ESR parameters of all radical intermediates have been determined.     

13C NMR Chemical Shift of β-Alkoxyvinylketones: II. Empirical Substituent Effects in β-Aryl-β-Methoxyvinyltrihalomethylketones

Evaluation by empirically derived equations for the substituent effect (α,β,γ,δ) on the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts for C-1, C-2, C-3 and C-4 in β-aryl-β-methoxyvinylhalomethylketones 1a-g to 2a-g [R³C(O)-CH=C(Ar)-OMe, where R³ = CCl₃, CF₃ and Ar = p-YC₆H₄ (Y = H, Me, MeO, F, Cl, Br, NO₂)], taking as reference the β-ethoxyvinyltrichloromethylketone (3), 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 1,2. The ¹³C chemical shifts of the C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4 of these compounds, can be estimated with good to rasoable precision: 84% of the calculated chemical shifts are found to be within ±1.0ppm, and 100% are found to be within ±1.5ppm. The Y-Effects on C-3 and C-4 are compared with carbon charge densities (qr).     

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.     

NMR Studies of Crowded Diels–Alder Adducts of Phencyclone with N‐(2,6‐Dialkylphenyl)maleimides. Hindered Rotations and Magnetic Anisotropy

Abstract

Phencyclone, 1, reacted with N‐(2,6‐dimethylphenyl)maleimide, 2a; with N‐(2,6‐diethylphenyl)maleimide, 2b; and with N‐(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl)maleimide, 2c, respectively, to yield the corresponding Diels–Alder adducts, 3a–c. The adducts were extensively characterized by NMR (7 T) at ambient temperatures using one‐ and two‐dimensional (1D and 2D) proton and carbon‐13 techniques for assignments. Slow exchange limit (SEL) spectra were observed, demonstrating slow rotations on the NMR timescales, for the unsubstituted bridgehead phenyl groups [C(sp³)–C(aryl sp²) bond rotations] and for the 2,6‐dialkylphenyl groups [N(sp²)–C(aryl sp²) bond rotations]. Substantial magnetic anisotropic shifts were seen in the adducts. For example, in the N‐(2,6‐dialkylphenyl) moieties of the adducts, one of the alkyl groups is directed “into” the adduct cavity, toward the phenanthrenoid portion, and these “inner” alkyl proton NMR signals were shifted upfield. Thus, in CDCl₃, the “inner” methyl of adduct 3a exhibits a proton resonance at ?0.13 ppm, upfield of tetramethylsilane (TMS); the “inner” ethyl group signals from 3b appear at 0.026 ppm (CH₂, quartet), and ?0.21 ppm (CH₃, triplet); and the “inner” isopropyl group from 3c is seen at ?0.06 ppm (methine, approx. septet) and ?0.39 ppm (CH₃, doublet). Proton NMR of the crude N‐(2,6‐dialkylphenyl)maleamic acids (used as precursors of the maleimides, 2a–c) exhibited two sets of AB quartet signals, suggesting possible conformers from hindered rotation in the amide groups about the HN–C?O bonds.     

Proton and Carbon‐13 NMR Studies of the Phencyclone Adducts of Medium Alkyl Chain‐Length N‐n‐Alkylmaleimides. Hindered Rotations and Magnetic Anisotropic Effects. Ab initio Calculations for Optimized Structures

Abstract

The Diels–Alder adducts, 3a–e, of phencyclone, 1, have been prepared from a series of N‐n‐alkylmaleimides, 2, with medium chain‐length n‐alkyl groups. The maleimides were obtained by cyclodehydration of the N‐n‐alkylmaleamic acids, 4, formed from reaction of maleic anhydride with the corresponding n‐alkylamines. The five adducts prepared included derivatives from n‐heptyl, 3a; n‐octyl, 3b; n‐nonyl, 3c; n‐decyl, 3d; and n‐dodecyl, 3e. The NMR spectra of the adducts were studied in CDCl₃ at ambient temperatures at 300 MHz for proton and 75 MHz for carbon‐13, with full proton assignments achieved by high‐resolution COSY45 spectra for the aryl and the alkyl regions. Slow exchange limit (SEL) spectra were observed for both ¹H and ¹³C spectra showing slow rotation on the NMR timescales of the unsubstituted bridgehead phenyl groups. Endo Diels–Alder adduct stereochemistry was supported by striking magnetic anisotropic shielding effects in the ¹H spectra of the alkyl groups, with the NCH₂ CH ₂ signal of each adduct appearing upfield of tetramethylsilane (TMS) at ca. ?0.32 ppm. Proton NMR spectra for precursor maleamic acids and maleimides are reported, with some solvent effects found (CDCl₃ vs. d ₆‐acetone) for the carbon‐bound HC?CH protons of 4. Ab initio molecular modeling calculations at the Hartree‐Fock level using the 6‐31G* basis set have been performed for two key conformers of the phencyclone adduct of N‐n‐octylmaleimide, as a representative structure for these hindered adducts, to estimate geometric parameters for the adduct. A syn conformer, with the alkyl chain directed into the adduct cavity, was found to be ca. 0.23 kcal/mol lower energy than an anti conformer (in which the alkyl chain was directed away from the phenanthrenoid moiety).     

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.     

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.     

Structural Assignment of Stilbenethiols and Chalconethiols and Differentiation of Their Isomeric Derivatives by Means of 1H‐ and 13C‐NMR Spectroscopy

Abstract

The ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR spectra of some substituted stilbenes and chalcones were assigned unambiguously on the basis of a combination of homo‐ (COSY) and heteronuclear (HETCOR) two‐dimensional methods, the chemical shifts, as well as spin‐coupling constants. The A_ik empirical parameters of the –O–C(S)–N(CH₃)₂, –S–C(O)–N(CH₃)₂, and –SH group were calculated to help predict the chemical shifts of substituted stilbenes, 4′‐nitrostilbenes, and chalcones. The ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR spectra have been shown to be able to differentiate between the isomers of O‐stilbenyl (4, 5) and S‐stilbenyl N,N‐dimethylthiocarbamates (7, 8) as well as O‐chalconyl (6) and S‐chalconyl N,N‐dimethylthiocarbamates (9).
