13C-NMR study of 4H-1,3,4-thiadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxalines. A proof for the N5-deuteration in deuteriotrifluoroacetic acid

The carbon signals of the 2-acylamino-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxalines 1a,b , 2-acylamino-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxaline 1,1-dioxides 2a,b , and 2-amino-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxaline 3 in deuteriodimethyl sulfoxide and in deuteriotrifluoroacetic acid were assigned by the nmr (HMBC, HMQC) spectroscopy. The comparison of the carbon chemical shifts in deuteriodimethyl sulfoxide with those in deuteriotrifluoroacetic acid clarified that compounds 1a, 1b , and 3 were deuterized at the N₅-position in deuteriotrifluoroacetic acid, while the 1,1-dioxides 2a,b did not undergo the N₅-deuteration in deuteriotrifluoroacetic acid.     

Tautomeric behavior of 3-(arylhydrazono)methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines between the hydrazone imine and diazenyl enamine forms in acidic media. Solvent and substituent effects

The 3-(arylhydrazono)methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines 1a-h and 2a-e showed tautomeric equilibria between the hydrazone imine A and diazenyl enamine B forms in a series of mixed trifluoroacetic acid/dimethyl sulfoxide media. The substituent and solvent effects on the tautomer ratios of A to B in a series of mixed media were studied for compounds 1a-h and 2a-e by the nmr spectroscopy. In compounds 1a-h and 2a-e , the ratios of the tautomer B gradually increased with elevation of acid concentration, and the tautomer B exclusively existed in trifluoroacetic acid media. The various acid concentrations (C v/v%, C' mol/1) giving the 1:1 tautomer ratios [C(A:B = 1:1), C'(A:B = 1:1)] were obtained from all compounds (Figures 1–13), and the linear correlation of the Hammett σ_p values with the log C'(A:B = 1:1) values were observed for compounds 1a-h. The larger Hammett σ_p values brought about the larger acid concentrations C(A:B = 1:1) in compounds 1a-h and 2a-e , indicating that the higher acid concentration was required for the stabilization of tautomer B possessing the electron-withdrawing p-substituents R¹, which weakened the basicity of the azo nitrogen atom. Moreover, the ester group R² of compounds 2a-e was found to decrease the electron density of the azo nitrogen atom, since the acid concentration C(A:B = 1:1) of compound 2c (R¹ = H, R² = COOMe, σ_p = O) was 52%, whose value was larger than that of compound 1b (R¹ = CN, R² = H, σ_p = 0.66) [C(A:B = 1:1) = 42%].     

Quinone chemistry. Synthesis and tautomerism of 4,7-indazolequinones

The reaction of 1 with hydrazines provided hydrazinium-4,7-dioxo-4,7-dihydroindazol-3-olates 2a-e and 4,7-indazolequinones 3f,g depending upon the nature of the substituent present in the reactants. Compounds 3a-g were obtained by treatment of 2a-e with sodium hydroxide. Fixed tautomers 4a-b and 5c-f were synthesized by methylation of the corresponding 3a-f or 2a-2e with diazomethane. Migration of a methyl group of 5c-f from the oxygen at C₃ to N₁ on heating afforded 6c-f . The tautomerism of 2a-e and 3a-g has been studied by comparing ir, uv, ¹H nmr and ¹³C nmr spectra with those of the fixed tautomers.     

Substituent effects on the tautomer ratios between the hydra-zone imine and diazenyl enamine forms in 3-(arylhydra-zono)methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines. Correlation of the hammett constants σp with the tautomeric equilibrium constants KT

The 3-(arylhydrazono)methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines 1a-e and 2a-i showed tautomeric equilibria between the hydrazone imine A and diazenyl enamine B forms in dimethyl sulfoxide media. The sub-stituent effects on the tautomer ratios of A to B in compounds 1a-e and 2a-i were studied by the nmr spec-troscopy. The electron-donating or electron-withdrawing p-substituents R¹ in compounds 2a-i represented a tendency to increase the ratios of the tautomer A or the tautomer B , respectively, exhibiting the linear correlation of the Hammett constants σ_p (-0.17 to +0.78) with the tautomer ratios of A to B or the tautomeric equilibrium constants K_T. However, the presence of the ester group R² in compounds 1a-e induced the exclusive existence of the tautomer A regardless of the nature of the p-substituents R¹. In the tautomeric thermodynamic study, the elevating temperature increased the ratios of the hydrazone imine tautomer A in compounds 2a-i . The tautomeric thermodynamic parameters ΔG°, ΔH° and ΔS° were derived from the van't Hoff plots for compounds 2a , b , h , i , wherein the entropy term dominated the free-energy difference between the A and B tautomers.     

Theoretical calculations on C30H12 bowl-shaped hydrocarbons: NMR shielding constants,stability, and aromaticity

Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G* level have been performed on four bowl-shaped polyaromatic hydrocarbons of C₃₀H₁₂ molecular formula ( 1 – 4 ) showing C₃ ( 1 ), C_2v ( 2 and 4 ), and C_2h ( 3 ) symmetries. The geometrical and electronic properties of the compounds studied have been analyzed to explain their relative stability. NMR chemical shifts parameters for the atoms and Nucleus Independent Chemical Shifts (NICSs) for the rings were calculated using the GIAO method. The ¹³C and ¹H chemical shifts calculated are in very good agreement with the experimental data. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Comput Chem 20: 1412–1421, 1999     

NMR Analysis of Substituent Effect of Arymethylene‐malononitriles and Malonates

A series of arylmethylene‐malononitriles and malonates were prepared from the condensation of arylaldehydes and malononitriles and malonates, respectively. The function of substituents on the carbon‐13 chemical shifts of the Cα and Cβ was studied. The correlation between Hammett's constants and the substituent chemical shifts demonstrates a negative slope for Cα and positive for C_β (1, C_α:ρ = ‐3.877, r² = 0.979; C_β:ρ = 6.899, r² = 0.984; 2, C_α:ρ = ‐2.817, r² = 0.926; C_β:ρ = 5.355, r² = 0.950). The large slopes for C_β for both series compounds resemble our previous studies on the arylcyclopropanes. The relaxation time of both proton and carbon are slightly affected by the size of substituents. In the viscosity study, an inverse‐law relationship between relaxation time and viscosity was observed.     

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy IX—monosubstituted ethylenes

Carbon-13 chemical shifts of sixteen monosubstituted ethylenes were obtained. In order to explain the chemical shifts, σ and π electron densities of these compounds are calculated by the σ-included ω-HMO method.

1 See Ref. 8.

A linear relationship exists between carbon-13 chemical shifts and the calculated electron densities, and also between substituent constants and electron densities. A slope of unity is obtained between the chemical shifts of α carbons of monosubstituted ethylenes and those of carbons adjacent to the substituents in monosubstituted benzenes. On the other hand, a plot of chemical shifts of C_ortho of benzene derivatives against that of the β carbon in ethylene derivatives gives a slope of 3. These slopes can be explained by the calculated electron densities. A slope of 4/3 is obtained between the direct coupling constant ¹J(C? H) of the α carbon in monosubstituted ethylenes and that in the corresponding substituted methanes.     

Structural analysis of aristolochic acids and aristolactams by correlations between calculated and experimental <Superscript>13</Superscript>C NMR chemical shifts

Aristolactam AII (1) and aristolochic acid I (2) were employed as examples in choosing the most suitable theoretical methodology for computing carbon chemical shifts (^Calc δ _C) and for the structural elucidations of aristolactams and aristolochic acids. Geometries of 1 and 2 optimized using HF, BLYP, B3LYP, and PBE methods and 6-311++G** basis set were subjected to δ_C calculations and the calculated chemical shifts obtained were correlated with their ¹³C NMR data. Different possibilities were considered (in the gaseous phase, model PCM (DMSO), and for dimeric systems 1-1 and 2-2), and an explicit solvent (DMSO) model employing BLYP/6-31G* calculations was determined to be the most efficient (R ² = 0.99631 and 0.97713, for 1 and 2, respectively).     

On the HALA effect in the NMR carbon shielding constants of the compounds containing heavy p‐elements

The heavy atom (HA) effect on the NMR isotropic carbon shielding constants is computationally investigated in the series of model ethanes, ethylenes, and acetylenes, C_βH₃? C_αH₂? XH_n, C_βH₂? C_αH? XH_n, C_βH?C_α? XH_n (n = 0, 1, 2, or 3 depending on X), where X covers p‐elements in the 13–17 groups of the 3–6 periods in as many as 60 compounds. Compounds under study provide diverse bonding situations for the α‐ and β‐carbons, which are characterized by the consecutive increase of the s‐character of the C_β? C_α and C_α? X bonds, being one of the factors influencing spin‐orbit part of the HA on light atom effect (SO‐HALA). The “chalcogen dependence,” “pnictogen dependence,” “tetrel dependence,” and “triel dependence” are established for the 16th, 15th, 14th, and 13th groups, respectively. A well‐known “normal halogen dependence” for the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts, established much earlier for the compounds containing 17th group elements, also revealed itself in all three series under investigation. The dependence of the spin‐orbit effects size depending on the number of the lone electron pairs (LEPs) on HA X has also been investigated. The comparison of theoretical ¹³C NMR chemical shifts with experiment is performed for three representative tellurides. The HALA effect in this series has been shown to be strongly dependent on the number of tellurium LEPs.     

Zur Kenntnis der Indolreaktion nach Fischer. II. Thermische und säurekatalysierte Indolisierung von 1′-Alkenyl-2′-methyl-2′-phenylacetohydraziden

On the Fischer-Indole Reaction. II. Thermal and Acid Catalysed Indolization of 1′-Alkenyl-2′-methyl-2′-phenylacetohydrazides Seven different 1′-alkenyl-2′-methyl-2′-phenylacetohydrazides, 6a-g , have been prepared by treatment of the methylphenylhydrazones 7 of appropriate ketones and aldehydes with acetyl chloride in pyridine. At 170° 6a-g are transformed into the N-methylindoles 3a-g and acetamide in moderate yield. N-Methylaniline is the other major reaction product indicating that homolytic cleavage of the weak N, N-bond in 6 is a major primary reaction step. It is likely but not proven that the N-methylindoles 3 are formed in a reaction sequence initiated by an uncatalysed concerted [3, 3]-sigmatropic rearrangement. Upon treatment of 6 with 0.5N dichloroacetic acid in anhydrous acetonitrile at room temperature a quantitative conversion to 3 is observed, interpreted as proceeding by a charge induced [3, 3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of protonated 6 in the rate determining step. The ketone derivatives 6a-e (R¹ = alkyl) react 40-1000 times faster with acid than the aldehyde derivatives 6f and 6g (R¹ = H). This is rationalized as a consequence of the increased basicity of 6a-e relative to 6f and 6g caused by a steric effect.     

Carbon-13 NMR studies of 1-aryl-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-4-imidazolidinones. Conformational isomerism and substituent effects

Characteristic ^13C chemical shift ranges and substituent shifts of heterocyclic ring carbon atoms have been identified for a number of 1-aryl-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-4-imidazolidinones. ¹³CNMR spectra may be used to detect slow internal rotation about the aryl C? N-1 bond in compounds with diastereomeric rotational isomers; many corresponding carbon atoms in the rotamers have distinctly different chemical shifts. The δ-effects originating from aryl ortho substituents are both electronic and steric in origin.     

1H and 13C NMR study of 8-hydroxyquinoline and some of its 5-substituted analogues

¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) and its 5-Me, 5-F, 5-Cl, 5-Br and 5-NO₂ derivatives have been studied in DMSO-d₆ solution. The ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts and proton–proton, proton–fluorine, carbon–proton and carbon–fluorine coupling constants have been determined. The ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts have been correlated with the charge densities on the hydrogen and carbon atoms calculated by the CNDO/2 method. The correlation of the ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts with the total charge densities on the carbon atoms is approximately linear (r_H² = 0.85, r_C² = 0.84). The proton in peri position to the nitro group in 5-NO₂-oxine is an exception.     

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy—VII:para-substituted fluorobenzenes

C-13 and F-19 NMR spectra of seventeen para-substituted fluorobenzenes were measured and the chemical shifts as well as coupling constants with respect to substituents were analysed. The chemical shifts of the fluorine, the C₁ and the C₂ atoms were found to depend on the total electron densities. In the case of the C₃ atom, the chemical shifts seem to depend on π-electron densities rather than the total electron densities. The present calculations also indicate that the chemical shift of the C₄ atom depends mainly on σ-electron densities due to the inductive effects of substituents. The strongest factor influencing the coupling constant, ⁿJ(C? F), is also considered to be the π-electron densities on the carbon atoms. In the case of the direct couplings, ¹J(C? F), the π-bond orders are important.     

Semi-Empirical and DFT Studies on Structures and Spectra for C78（CH2）2

Eighteen possible isomers of C78（CH2）2 weTe investigated by the INDO method. It was indicated that the most stable isomer was 42,43,62,63-C78（CH2）2, where the -CH2 groups were added to the 6/6 bonds located at the same hexagon passed by the longest axis of C78 （C2v）, to form cyclopropane structures. Based on the most stable four geometries of C78（CH2）2 optimized at B3LYP/3-21G level, the first absorptions in the electronic spectra calculated with the INDO/CIS method and the IR frequencies of the C-C bonds on the carbon cage computed using the AM1 method were blue-shifted compared with those of C78 （C2v） because of the bigger LUMO-HOMO energy gap and the less conjugated carbon cage after the addition. The chemical shifts of ^13C NMR for the carbon atoms on the added bonds calculated at B3LYP/3-21G level were moved upfield thanks to the conversion from sp^2-C to sp^3-C.     

Are there reliable DFT approaches for 13C NMR chemical shift predictions of fullerene C60 derivatives?

The relationships between experimental and theoretical ¹³C NMR chemical shifts of a pristine fullerene C₆₀, monoadducts from [2 + n] cycloaddition (n = 1–3), and one [2 + 1] bis‐adduct are systematically analyzed for the first time by using diverse quantum‐chemical levels of theory. These levels involved B3LYP, B3PW91, B97‐2, mPW1PW91, PBE1PBE, and X3LYP hybrid functionals combined with 3‐21G, 6‐31G, 6‐31G(d), 6‐31G(d,p), 6‐31G(d,2p), LanL2DZ, and SDDAll basis sets. X3LYP/6‐31G approach is determined to have the lowest deviations from the ¹³C NMR experimental data compared to the other methods for all the fullerene compounds (mean absolute error value is 0.856 ppm and root mean squared error value is 1.197 ppm). The highest deviations are characteristic for α (sp² C2/C5/C8/C10) and β (sp² C6/C7/C11/C12) carbon atoms relative to a functionalization site and for those (sp³ C1/C9) directly attached with a side fragment in the [2 + n] monoadducts (n = 1–3). A probable reason of such deviation is that the approaches do not take into account a contribution of paramagnetic ring currents to ¹³C NMR chemical shifts. The results will be useful in design of novel fullerene derivatives and in performing unambiguous ¹³C NMR chemical shift assignments with modern quantum chemistry calculations.     

The increment scheme for the prediction of13C NMR chemical shifts in polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins

A topological method for the calculation of¹³C NMR chemical shifts was developed for polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDD). Based on previous results for polychlorinated benzenes and polyhydroxybenzenes, the collective influence of the substituents on carbon chemical shifts is presented as the sum of two-particle increments. The increments only of two new monosubstituted graphs have to be added to those known for PCDD spectra: 1-Cl-DD and 2-Cl-DD. All structural situations in the¹³C NMR chemical shifts of the whole class of 75 PCDD can be covered with a few model compounds. The coefficients of the increment scheme are independent of the change of CDCl₃ for acetone-d₆, so it may be a new reliable criterion for recognizing PCDD by¹³C NMR, in spite of the close resemblance of NMR spectra of aromatic compounds.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Research in the azole series. 103. Synthesis and 13C NMR study of pyrazole-4-carboxaldehydes

Ten new pyrazoles have been prepared and their ¹³C nmr chemical shifts compared with those of twelve other pyrazoles, some of them prepared purposely for this study. The chemical shifts are discussed statistically assuming that they are additive. A formyl group in the position 4 of the pyrazole ring produces a large effect on carbon C₄ (SCS = 17.3 ppm) and medium effects on carbons C₃ (SCS = 1.9 ppm) and C₅ (SCS = 3.8 ppm). The azines derived from pyrazole-4-carboxaldehydes are of the E,E-configuration.     

15N-, 1H-, and 13C-NMR chemical shifts and electronic properties of aromatic diamines and dianhydrides

We measured the ¹⁵N-, ¹H-, and ¹³C-NMR chemical shifts for a series of aromatic diamines and aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydrides dissolved in DMSO-d₆, and discuss the relationships between these chemical shifts and the rate constants of acylation (k) as well as such electronic-property-related parameters such as ionization potential (IP), electronic affinity (EA), and the energy ε of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO). The ¹⁵N chemical shifts of the amino group of diamines (δ_N) depend monotonically on the logarithm of k (log k) and on IP. We inferred the reactivities of diamines whose acylation rates have not been measured from their δ_N, and we propose an arrangement of diamines in the order of their reactivity. The ¹H chemical shift of amino hydrogens (δ_H) and the ¹³C chemical shift of carbons bonded to nitrogen (δ_C) are roughly proportional to δ_N, but these shifts are not as closely correlated with log k and IP. Although the ¹³C chemical shifts of the carbonyl carbon of dianhydrides (δ_C,) varies much less than the δ_C and δ_N of diamines, δ_C, can be an index of acylation reactivity for dianhydrides because it is closely correlated with ε_LUMO. These facts indicate that the chemical shifts of diamines and dianhydrides are displaced according to their electron-donor and electron-acceptor properties, and that these chemical shifts can be used as indices of the electronic properties of monomers. Changes in reactivity caused by the introduction of trifluoromethyl groups into diamines and dianhydrides are inferred from the displacements of δ_N and δ_C © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
