1H NMR utilization of through-space effects. II—conformation of dienic ketones

The configurational and conformational assignments of the carbonyl group in the Z- and E-1-(3-substituted-5,5-dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-ylidene)-2-butanones are carried out using only the through-space effects of the carbonyl group. It is demonstrated that, regardless of the Z- or E-configuration or the nature of the substituent in position 3, the conformation of the carbonyl group is always s-cis.     

1H NMR utilization of through-space effects in configurational assignments. I—application to nitriles; determination of the separate effects of the electric field and anisotropy of the CN group

The changes in chemical shift induced by isomerization for all the ring protons of the Z- and E-5,5-dimethyl-2-cyclohexenylidene acetonitriles depend only on the through-space effects of the cyano group. The configurational assignments were made taking into consideration the anisotropic and electric field effects, either separately or together. In the first case, the total effects are Δ_XCN^T=?14.7×10^?6cm³ mol^?1 and bμ_CN^T=14.7×10^?30 cm³, respectively. The second approach allows the estimation of the values Δ_XCN=?4.9 × 10^?6 cm³ mol^?1 and bμ_CN=9.8 × 10^?3 cm³, reflecting the combined contributions of magnetic anisotropy and electric field to the total effect.     

13C NMR spectra of thiophenes. III—Bromothiophenes

The ¹³C NMR spectra of all bromo substituted thiophenes have been obtained at 15·085 MHz. ¹³C signal assignments for monobromothiophenes have been confirmed by comparison with the spectra of their partially deuteriated derivatives; a revision is made for the assignment in 3-bromothiophene. The substituent effect of bromine is generally additive for the ¹³C chemical shifts. The substituent effect on various types of ¹³C, ¹H coupling constants is also obtained and discussed.     

NMR study of organosilicon compounds. III—Silicon-29, nitrogen-14, carbon-13 and proton NMR spectra of silylakylamines

²⁹Si, ¹⁴N ¹³C and ¹H NMR data are presented for a series of homologous (methylethoxysilyl)alkylamines of the type (CH₃)_3?n(C₂H₅O)_nSi(CH₂)_mNH₂(n=o to 3; m = 1 to 4). The measured ¹³C and ¹H chemical shifts correlate with the total net charges Q_A on the corressponding atoms, estimated by the Del Re method. ¹⁴N and ²⁹Si chemical shifts which do not show simple linear relationships to the charges are found to correlate with the relative basicities of the compounds. The influence of the remote substituent (? NH₂ and others) on the ₂₉Si chemical shifts is shown to depend on the number and nature of substituents directly on the silicon atom. Argyments for d-orbital participation in the Si? O bounds are given. The chemical shifts of ²⁹Si, ¹⁴N and ₁₃C nuclei are not consistent with the fromation of intramolecular ‘long bonds’ between the solicon and nitrogen atoms in aliphatic silymethylamines.     

Metastable ion study of organosilicon compounds. Part III—trimethoxyphenylsilane

The unimolecular decomposition of trimethoxyphenylsilane (1) was investigated by mass-analysed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) spectrometry, deuterium-labelling studies and from high resolution data. The characteristic fragmentations of metastable molecular ion of 1 were losses of C₆H₆ and C₇H₇^· with rearrangements. Almost complete H/D scrambling occurred in the molecular ion prior to these decompositions. The other important fragmentation routes corresponded to expulsions of CH₃O^· and C₆H₅^·. These fragmentations were followed by consecutive elimination of an H₂CO molecule, as commonly observed in the mass spectra of alkoxysilanes. In these fragmentation processes, H/D scrambling increased as the internal energy of the molecular ion was lowered. The fragmentations of 1 were compared with those of its carbon analogue, α,α,α-trimethoxytoluene.     

v-Triazolines—IV: NMR configuration assignment of 5-dialkylamino-v-triazolines

A series of 1-aryl-5-amino-4,5-dihydro-v-triazoles bearing at least one hydrogen atom at the C-4 position has been prepared. The NMR features of the above compounds have been studied with the purpose of differentiating the triazolines with a trans configuration from those with a cis configuration. It has been shown that the hydrogen atom at C-4 lying on the same side of the amine group at C-5 always resonates at lower field than the hydrogen atom on the opposite side. This rule can be applied for identifying the configuration of the 5-amino-v-triazolines.     

Radikale aus Polymethin-Farbstoffen: III—Polymethinoxonole

The e.s.r. spectra of neutral radicals in solution obtained by electrolytic reduction of a series of dinuclear polymethine oxonols have been interpreted. The values of the e.s.r. coupling constants, ¹H n.m.r. results from the parent compounds and HMO calculations are used to discuss conformation, π-electron density distribution and C? C bond lengths in these radicals.     

Mass spectra of organoarsenic compounds. III—Electron-impact-induced fragmentation of trialkylarsenates and penta-alkoxyarsoranes

The mass spectra of a series of trialkylarsenates are reported, together with those of dimethyl methylarsonate, pentamethoxyarsorane and pentaethoxyarsorane. Their behaviour under electron-impact is discussed and compared with that reported for trialkylphosphates.     

Mass spectrometric studies of organophosphorus compounds: III—Remarkable migration of chalcogen on electron impact of organophosphorus compounds

The mass spectra of several dibenzo (d.f)-1,3,2,-dioxaphosphorepines of the type where X=0, S, Se and R=2,2′-biphenylylene, have been studied. Dibenzochalcogen ions [RX]⁺˙ stemming directly from [M]⁺˙ were observed with high intensities, indicating specific migration of X from phosphorus to carbon with simultaneous destruction of the dioxaphosphorepine ring. Simple cleavage of P? Y as usually observed in similar organophosphorus compounds is not a common process here.     

Phosphoranes par fermeture trans-annulaire: III—Conformation—configuration—labilité

The analysis of the n.m.r. spectra of the two isomers of 1,6,6-trimethyl-3-phenyl-2,8-dioxa-5-aza-1-phospha ^vbicyclo[3.3.0]octane allows us to propose a conformation for each 5-membered ring and for the configuration of the phosphorus atom. The lability of the H? P proton, revealed by high temperature experiments and by P? H ? P? D exchange, is significantly different in the two isomers.     

13C and 1H NMR of 2,6-diaryl-1-hydroxy piperidin-4-one oximes; substituent effects on cis/trans ratio and conformational equilibria

The reaction of substituted diarylidene acetones with hydroxylamine hydrochloride affords isomeric N-hydroxy diaryl piperidinone oximes as main products. The structures as well as conformational equilibria of these products were established by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and further studied by variable temperature NMR. It was found that the cis/trans ratio of 2,6-substituted piperidine derivatives depended on the position of the substituent on the aromatic ring.     

Long range 13C?1H coupling constants. III—methylpyridines

Proton coupled carbon-13 NMR spectra of eleven mono-, di- and trimethylpyridines were analysed on a first order basis. The long range ¹³C? ¹H coupling constants are similar to those observed for pyridine and cyanopyridines.

13C NMR spectroscopy of cyclopropane derivatives. 1—monocyclic compounds

The ¹³C NMR data of an appreciable number of cyclopropane derivatives have been collected. Most of the spectra were recorded by ourselvesand some were taken from the Literature. With a view to furthering the useof ¹³C NMR spectroscopy as a diagnostic tool in this field, we havemeasured not only the chemical shifts,δ, but also the coupling constants ¹J(CH). It is shown that both embody valuable structural information.     

1H and13C NMR spectra of polycyclic compounds

Using 2D¹H and¹³C correlation NMR spectroscopy, all signals in the¹H and¹³C NMR spectra of five stereoisomeric bicyclo[2.2.1]heptadiene trimers, decacyclo[9.9.1.0^2.10.0^3.8.0^4.6.0^5.9.0^12.20.0^13.18.0^14.16.0^15.19]heneicosanes, obtained by Pd-catalyzed codimerization of norbornadiene dimer with quadricyclane followed by homocyclotrimerization of the latter were assigned unambiguously. Independent stereochemical identification of the trimers was performed using data on the nuclear Overhauser effect.     

1H and 13C NMR spectra of benzyl compounds

Proton and carbon-13 spectra of benzyl compounds of the general formula (C₆H₅CH₂)_nX with a large variety of X substituents have been measured. While a linear relationship between the CH₂ chemical shift and the substituent electronegativity was found both for ¹H and ¹³C, large deviations from linearity were observed for transition metals such as titanium and zirconium. These later results are correlated with the X-ray studies of the latter compounds.     

Doubly charged ion mass spectra: III—N-alkanes

Doubly charged ion mass spectra have been obtained for 15 n-alkane hydrocarbons. Spectra were measured using a Nier-Johnson geometry Hitachi RMU-7L mass spectrometer operated at 1.6kV accelerating voltage. Fragment ions, which resulted from C? C bond rupture and extensive H loss, dominated the spectra. Molecular ions have not been observed. The most intense ions in the doubly charged ion mass spectra of n-alkanes were [C₂H₄]²⁺, [C₃H₂]²⁺, [C₄H₃]²⁺, [C₅H₂]²⁺, [C₆H₆]²⁺, [C₆H₈]²⁺, [C₇H₆]²⁺, [C₇H₈]²⁺, [C₈H₆]²⁺ and [C₈H₈]²⁺. Appearance energies for forming the prominent doubly charged fragment ions have been measured and range from 27.5 eV to energies greater than 60eV. A geometry optimized SCF approach has been used to compute the energies and structures of prominent ions in the doubly charged mass spectra.

The present report deals with the stereochemistry of the degradation products of arteannuin and some intermediates of its total synthesis. The configurations of 13-CH3 and lactone ring are deduced by using spin-spin coupling constants and the pattern of 11-H as well as the NOE results from 1H NMR spectroscopy.     

Automated analysis of high-resolution NMR spectra III—the nematic phase spectra of three allyl halides

In recent publications we have described a novel method of analysis for high-resolution NMR spectra of compounds in isotropic solution which differs from conventional procedures in that it exploits the full information content of a spectrum and does not require assignments of energy levels or transitions. We now present a further development of this technique which also makes it applicable to the NMR spectra of molecules partially oriented in liquid crystal solvents. Illustrative applications are reported for the nematic phase spectra of allyl fluoride, allyl chloride and allyl bromide. The results are discussed in terms of various theoretical models of the interplay between the internal and overall rotations of the conformationally mobile solutes.
