Nuclear magnetic triple resonance studies on formamide-14N

The magnitudes of the two spin-spin coupling constants J(N¹H …? ¹³C), and all relatives signs of the couplings J(¹H …? ¹H) and J(¹H …? ¹³C) of formamide-¹⁴N, were determined by triple resonance experiments of the types ¹H—{¹³C}—{¹⁴N} and ¹H—{¹H}—{¹⁴N}.     

Nitrogen-15 coupling constants: Geminal coupling, 2J(15NH), in cis- and trans-aldonitrones and vicinal coupling, 3J(15NH), in cis-and trans-ketimines,oxaziridines and nitrones

Nitrogen-15-hydrogen ²J(¹⁵NH), ¹⁵N, ¹³C ¹J(¹⁵N¹³C) and ¹³C, H ¹J(¹³CH) coupling constants have been measured and their signs determined for cis-and trans-[9-anthryl(¹³C)methylene](²H₃)methylamine (¹⁵N)-oxide. Values of ²J(¹⁵NH) were of similar magnitude (～2 Hz) but were of opposite sign. The results are compared and contrasted with those reported for related imino and quaternary imino systems. Vicinal ³J(¹⁵NH) coupling constants have been measured in cis- and trans-¹⁵N-[1-(α-naphthyl)ethylidene]benzylamine and ¹⁵N-[1-(p-nitrophenyl)ethylidene]-t-butylamine and were found to be larger when the imino methyl group was cis to the nitrogen lone pair. The corresponding cis and trans ketonitrones formed by photoisomerization of the derived oxaziridines had ³J(¹⁵NH) values of c. 3.3 Hz. A study of the signs and magnitudes of observed and calculated ¹⁵N,H coupling constants for all of the ¹⁵N labelled imines, oxaziridines, imine N-oxides (nitrones) and similar model systems which were synthesized is described.     

Synthese und NMR-Spektren einiger 13C-markierter Thio- und Seleno-äther, -acetale und -orthoester

Synthesis and NMR Spectra of Some ¹³C-Labelled Thio- and Seleno-ethers, -acetals, and -orthoesters Twenty-seven different open-chain and cyclic derivatives (RX)_nCH_4-n and (RX)_nCH_3-nR′ with n = 1?3, X = S or Se, R,R′ = alkyl or aryl, 1,3,5-trithiane, and bis-(dimethylsulfonio)methane and -methanide with single or multiple ¹³C-labelling have been synthesized. The ¹³C-NMR spectra of the sulfur and selenim compounds have been measured, and the dependence of the chemical shifts (δ_c) and coupling constants [′J(C,H), ′J(Se,C)] from the substitution pattern in discussed (Fig. 1) and compared with the polyhalogeno-methanes (Fig. 2).     

Carbon-13 NMR of some organophosphorus compounds. 2—chemical shifts and P?C coupling constants of diaryl-, dialkoxy- and diaryloxy-phosphine amines with general formula Y2PNRR'

Carbon-13 chemical shifts and ²J(POC), ³J(POCC), ²J(PNC) and ³J(PNC) coupling constants of 30 compounds containing the amine moiety, with the general formula Y₂PNRR' (Y ? C₆H₅, CH₃O, CH₃CH₂O, CH₂O; Y₂ ? 1,2-dioxybenzene) have been determined. J(PNC) values have been used to explain the preferred conformation around the P? N bond. A comparison between ²J(PNC) and ²J(PNH) was accomplished.     

High resolution 13C NMR spectroscopy. IV—stereochemical assignments in butenedioic acids and 3-pentene-2-ones

Vicinal ¹³C, H coupling constants ³J(CO, H) for butenedioic acids and ³J(CH₃, H) for 3-pentene-2-ones have been determined and are correlated with the configuration of the corresponding C?C double bond. For both types the relationship ³J(CH) trans > ³J(CH)cis holds; in the case of the CH₃, H couplings, however, the ³J(CH₃, H) trans values are reduced because of steric reasons, so that configurational assignments seem possible only when both isomers are present. Additionally, the coupling constants ³J(COC H₃,H ) and the chemical shifts δ have been evaluated for the pentenones and it is shown that these parameters give information about the predominating conformation of α, β-unsaturated methyl ketones.     

Détermination par RMN 1H et 13C des Couplages J(CH) et J(CC) dans des Monomères Precurseurs de Lignine: Vanilline,Férulate d'Ethyle et Alcool Coniférylique Sélectivement Enrichis en 2H et 13C

Some monomer model compounds of lignin have been selectively ²H and ¹³C labelled: vanillin, ethyl ferulate, coniferyl alcohol and ethyl hydrogen malonate. Deuterium isotope effects on the ¹³C chemical shifts in [formyl-²H]vanillin, [5-²H]vanillin and [α,α,5-²H₃]coniferyl alcohol made the unambiguous assignment of the aromatic ¹³C signals possible. Absolute ^1,2,3J(CC) values have been determined on ¹³C spectra of [formyl-¹³C]vanillin, and of ethyl ferulate and coniferyl alcohol in which the vinylic C-γ and C-β carbons were ¹³C enriched. It has been possible to measure ⁴J(C?O, C-4) in vanillin and ⁴J(C-γ, C-4) in ethyl ferulate. The determination of ^1,2,3,4J (CH) absolute values was done by means of gated decoupled ¹³C spectra of the non-labelled compounds. When second order effects made the use of this technique impossible we determined certain J(CH) values and their signs either by analysing the ¹H NMR spectra of ¹³C labelled coniferyl alcohol [²J(C-β, H-γ), ²J(C-β, H-α), ²J(C-γ, H-β), ³J(C-γ, H-α)] or by a double irradiation experiment on the 250 MHz ¹H NMR spectrum of ethyl [β-¹³C] ferulate [for ²J(C-β, H-γ)].     

13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of selected adenine nucleosides: Structural correlation and conformation about the glycosidic bond

Structural correlations have been carried out from ¹³C chemical shifts (δ) and by analysis of ¹J(CH) coupling constants, and the conformation about the glycosidic bond has been studied by means of the ³J(CH) vicinal coupling constants between C-8 and H-1′ of some adenine nucleosides such as adenosine (Ado), N(7)-β-D-ribofuranosyladenine (N(7)-Ado), N(9)- and N(7)-β-D-xylofuranosyladenine (N(9)-xylAde and N(7)-xylAde), N(9)-(3-chloro-3-deoxy-β-D-xylofuranosyl)adenine (3′-Cl-xylAde) and N(9)-(2-chloro-2-deoxy-β-D-arabinofuranosyl)adenine (2′-Cl-araAde). The analysis of the influence on δ¹³C of the nature and configuration of the substituent in the carbohydrate fragment of the molecule has revealed two types of effects, namely, 1,2-cis and 1,2-trans. This approach, as well as the ³J(CH) values and the analysis of the C-3′-endo?C-2′-endo equilibrium of the carbohydrate fragment of nucleosides, and circular dichroism (CD) data, provides important information on the conformation about the glycosidic bond. The magnitudes of ³J(C-4, H) are indicative of the position of attachment of the carbohydrate fragment to the heterocyclic base.     

13C NMR spectra of non-labelled and 15N-mono-labelled azo dyes

¹³C NMR spectra of four types of azo coupling products from benzenediazonium chloride have been measured and interpreted, viz. hydrazo compounds with an intramolecular hydrogen bond (3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole-4,5-dione 4-phenylhydrazone), azo compounds without an intramolecular hydrogen bond (4-hydroxyazobenzene), azo compounds with an intramolecular hydrogen bond (2-hydroxy-5-tert-butylazobenzene) and an equilibrium mixture of both the tautomers of 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol. The absolute values of the J(¹⁵N¹³C) coupling constants have been determined by recording the spectra of the ¹⁵N isotopomers, and have been used, in some cases, for ¹³C signal assignment. A relationship has been found between the chemical shifts of the C-1′ to C-4′ carbons of the phenyl group (from the benzenediazonium ion) or the ¹J(¹⁵N¹³C) coupling constant, and the composition of the tautomeric mixture.     

Stereochemistry of alkyl 3-substituted 4-halotetrahydro-2-oxo-3-furancarboxylates: 2—1H and 13C NMR spectra

The ¹H NMR parameters of methyl 3-substituted cis-4-halotetrahydro-2-oxo-3-furancarboxylates are reported, with assignments of the ring protons based on solvent-induced changes in the vicinal trans coupling constants, ³J(H-4, H-5). Preferred conformations, ce with a pseudo-equatorial halogen for the cis isomers and ta with a pseudo-axial halogen for the trans isomers, have been suggested on comparison of the magnitudes of J(trans) and J(gem) in both series. The ³J(¹³CH₃, H-4) values measured for methyl cis-4-bromotetrahydro-3-methyl-3-furancarboxylate, methyl trans-4-bromotetrahydro-3-methyl-3-furancarboxylate and trans-3,4-dibromodihydro-3-methyl-2(3H)-furanone have confirmed the stereochemical assignments.     

Structural studies of diiron complexes with monophosphine ligands tris(4-chlorophenyl)phosphine or diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine

Four diiron dithiolate complexes with monophosphine ligands have been prepared and structurally characterized. Reactions of (μ-SCH₂CH₂S-μ)Fe₂(CO)₆ or [μ-SCH(CH₃)CH(CH₃)S-μ]Fe₂(CO)₆ with tris(4-chlorophenyl)phosphine or diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine in the presence of Me₃NO·2H₂O afforded diiron pentacarbonyl complexes with monophosphine ligands (μ-SCH₂CH₂S-μ)Fe₂(CO)₅[P(4-C₆H₄Cl)₃] (1), (μ-SCH₂CH₂S-μ)Fe₂(CO)₅[Ph₂P(2-C₅H₄N)] (2), [μ-SCH(CH₃)CH(CH₃)S-μ]Fe₂(CO)₅[P(4-C₆H₄Cl)₃] (3), and [μ-SCH(CH₃)CH(CH₃)S-μ]Fe₂(CO)₅[Ph₂P(2-C₅H₄N)] (4) in good yields. Complexes 1–4 were characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H NMR, ³¹P{¹H} NMR and ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore, the molecular structures of 1–4 were confirmed by X-ray crystallography.     

Influence of bidentate phosphine ligands on the chemistry of [FeFe]-hydrogenase model: insight into molecular structures and electrochemical characteristics

Substitution of carbonyl ligands of the hydrogenase model complex [Fe₂(μ-SeCH₂CH(Me)CH₂Se-μ)(CO)₆] ( A ), by 1,1′-bis (diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf), 1,2-bis (diphenylphosphino)benzene (dppbz) or 1,2-bis (diphenylphosphino)acetylene (dppac) is investigated. It is found that the reaction product depends on the diphosphine used. In the case of dppf, the product is an intramolecular bridged disubstituted complex [Fe₂{μ-SeCH₂CH(Me)CH₂Se-μ}(CO)₄{μ,κ¹,κ¹(P,P)-dppf}] ( 1 ), while the dppac-reaction produces an intermolecular bridged tetra-iron model [Fe₂{μ-SeCH₂CH(Me)CH₂Se-μ}(CO)₅]₂{μ,κ¹,κ¹(P,P)-dppac} ( 2 ). However, the dppbz-reaction gives [Fe₂{μ-SeCH₂CH(Me)CH₂Se-μ}(CO)₄{κ²(P,P)-dppbz}] ( 3 ) in which the dppbz ligand is bonded to one Fe atom in a chelated manner. The newly prepared complexes ( 1 – 3 ) have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H-, ¹³C{H}-, ³¹P{H}-, ⁷⁷Se{H}-NMR spectroscopy and X-ray structure determination. The electrochemical behavior of 2 and 3 , in absence and presence of acid, is described by cyclic voltammetric measurements in CH₂Cl₂.     

1H, 13C, 31P NMR and conformational study of 7-membered ring organophosphorus compounds. 1,3,2-dioxaphosphepanes

The ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P NMR data of several 2-R-2-thiono-1,3-dioxa organophosphorus molecules with 7-membered rings [R = Cl, OC₆H₅, C₆H₅, CH₃, N(CH₃)₂] are reported. The conformation of the 7-membered ring is discussed by reference to the ³J(POCH) coupling constants which are compared with those observed in 6-membered 1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinanes. It is shown that caution must be exercised in using the ³J(POCH) angular dependence as a stereochemical tool. The ³¹P spin lattice relaxation times of some of these 7-membered rings have been measured and the values are discussed.     

13C n.m.r. spectroscopy of diethyl alkyl- and benzyl-phosphonates. A study of phosphorus–carbon spin–spin coupling constants over one to seven bonds

¹³C chemical shifts and ³¹P? ¹³C spin–spin coupling constants are reported for 10 alkyl-, 20 benzyl- and 3 (naphthylmethyl)-phosphonates. While in saturated aliphatic chains P–C couplings over more than four bonds cannot be resolved, couplings over up to seven bonds are observed in the benzyl type systems. Conformational and substituent effects on J(PC) are studied and discussed. ⁿJ(PF) (n = 4, 5, 6) are reported for the isomeric (fluorobenzyl)phosphonates and ⁿJ(PP) (n = 5, 6, 7) were obtained from the ¹³C satellites in the ³¹P n.m.r. spectra of the isomeric diphosphonates, C₆H₄[CH₂P(O)(OEt)₂]₂. Comparison of those ¹³C absorptions of the latter, which represent the X parts of ABX or AA′X spin systems, with the spectra of the corresponding (methylbenzyl)phosphonates, CH₃C₆H₄CH₂P(O)(OEt)₂, yielded the relative signs of ⁿJ(PC) (n = 2–6).     

187Os subspectra in 1H and 31P{1H} spectra of triosmium carbonyl clusters

A survey of the use of ¹⁸⁷Os satellite subspectra in ¹H and ³¹P{¹H} spectra of triosmium carbonyl clusters is reported. By varying evolution delays in HMQC spectra of [Os₃(µ‐H)₂(CO)₁₀] we have selectively extracted the values for ¹J(Os,H) and ²J(Os,H), respectively. An analysis of the principal modes of phosphine coordination in triosmium clusters demonstrates that ³¹P{¹H}¹⁸⁷Os satellite subspectra are diagnostic for equatorial coordination [¹J(Os,P) = 211–223 Hz] or for axial coordination (perpendicular to the plane of the cluster) [¹J(Os,P) ≈ 147 Hz]. Chelating and bridging diphosphines yield ¹⁸⁷Os satellite subspectra which are the sum of A₂X and AA′X spin systems. If significant P–P coupling is present, the AA′X component requires simulation. All observed ²J(Os,P) trans‐equatorial couplings fall in the range 38–65 Hz. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

1H and 13C NMR study of α-acetylenic PIII and PIV derivatives. Signs and magnitudes of J(P?C) and J(P?H)

All J(P? H) and J(P? C) values, including signs, have been obtained in acetylenic and propynylic phosphorus derivatives, R₂P(X)? C?C? H and R₂P(X)? C?C? CH₃ (X ? oxygen, lone pair and R ? C₆H₅, N(CH₃)₂, OC₂H₅, N(C₆H₅)₂, Cl) from ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra. In P^IV derivatives the following signs are obtained: ¹J(P? C)+, ²J(P? C)+, ³J(P? C)+, ³J(P? H)+, ⁴J(P? H)? . Linear relations are observed between ¹J(P? C), ²J(P? C) and ³J(P? C) versus ³J(P? H), indicating that these coupling constants are mainly dependent on the Fermi contact term, though the other terms of the Ramsey theory do not seem to be negligible for ¹J(P? C) and ²J(P? C). In P^III derivatives these signs are: ¹J(P? C)- and +, ²J(P? C)+, ³J(P? C)-, ³J(P? H)-, ⁴J(P? H)+. Only ³J(P? C) and ³J(P? H) reflect a small contribution of the Fermi contact term while in ¹J(P? C) and ²J(P? C) this contribution seems to be negligible relative to the orbital and/or spin dipolar coupling mechanisms.     

Proton-coupled 13C NMR and {14N}—1H-INDOR of highly-substituted 6-membered heterocycles. I—trisubstituted pyridones and isomeric aminopyrones; tetrasubstituted pyridines

The structural elucidation by NMR spectroscopy of trisubstituted α-pyridones and the isomeric 2-amino-γ-pyrones as well as their internal and external pyrylium salts is described. The most useful parameter for the differentiation between α-pyridones and isomeric γ-pyrones is the geminal coupling constant ²J(C-6, H-5) which changes from ～2.5 Hz to ～7 Hz whenever the cyclic amide group is replaced by an oxa-function; this applies to both the γ-pyrones and their pyrylium salts. The value of J(C-6, H-5) in the pyridones resembles that of the analogous coupling in N-vinylacetamide, whose sign determination by the selective population inversion (SPI) technique is reported. The ¹³C chemical shifts of seven pyridones, pyrones and pyrylium salts are reported and their structural correlations are discussed. Quick structural assignments in these classes of compounds may also be performed by evaluating the ¹⁴N chemical shifts, which often are accessible by the {¹⁴N}—¹H-INDOR technique. The proton coupled ¹³C NMR spectra of two tetrasubstituted pyridines are also reported, and empirical correlations between long range C? H coupling constants and substituent electronegativity are discussed.     

1H, 13C and 77Se NMR spectra of substituted selenoanisoles

The ¹H, ¹³C and ⁷⁷Se chemical shifts and the ¹J[C(Me)H(Me)], ^1.2J(SeC) and ²J(SeH) coupling constants in 14 para- or meta-substituted selenoanisoles, R? C₆H₄? Se? CH₃, have been measured and the dependence of these parameters on the electronic effects of the substituent R is discussed. A significant (up to 6 ppm) deviation from additivity of the substituent influence on the shielding of the ¹³C ring carbons has been found.     

Etude des Signes des Constantes de Couplage 3J(P?X?C?H) et 4J(F?P?X?C?H) dans les Diaza-, Dioxa- et Dithiaphospholanes Fluores

The NMR spectra of the trivalent fluorophospholanes ( 1, 2, 3 ) have been analysed at length. The absolute signs of the ³J(P? H) and ⁴J(F? H) coupling constants have been referred to the known negative sign of the ¹J(P? F) coupling constant from selective heteronuclear double resonance experiments. The ³J(P? O? C? H) and ³J(P? N? C? H) coupling are positive. The weak values observed for ³J(P? S? C? H) have opposite signs, the larger being positive. All the ⁴J(F? P? X? C? H) coupling constants are positive showing a lack of stereospecificity.

Synthesis of new cyano-substituted analogues of Tröger's bases from bromo-derivatives. A stereochemical dependence of long-range (nJHH,n = 4, 5, and 6) proton–proton and proton–carbon (nJCH,n = 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) coupling constants of these compounds

A free-catalyst microwave-assisted cyanation of brominated Tröger's base derivatives ( 2a - f ) is reported. The procedure is simple, efficient, and clean affording the nitrile compounds ( 3a - e, I ) in very good yields. Complete assignment of ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts of 2a - f, I and 3a - d, I was achieved using gradient selected 1D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques (1D zTOCSY, PSYCHE, DPFGSE NOE, and DEPT), homonuclear 2D NMR techniques (gCOSY and zTOCSY), and heteronuclear 2D NMR techniques (gHSQCAD/or pure-shift gHSQCAD, gHMBCAD, bsHSQCNOESY, and gHSQCAD-TOCSY) with adiabatic pulses. Determination of the long-range proton–proton coupling constants ⁿJ_HH (n = 4, 5, 6) was accomplished by simultaneous irradiation of two protons at appropriate power levels. In turn, determined coupling constants were tested by an iterative simulation program by calculating the ¹H NMR spectrum and comparing it to the experimental spectrum. The excitation-sculptured indirect-detection experiment (EXSIDE) and ¹H-¹⁵N CIGARAD-HMBC (constant time inverse-detection gradient accordion rescaled heteronuclear multiple bond correlation) were applied for determination of long-range carbon–proton coupling constants ⁿJ_CH (n = 2, 3, and 4) and for assignment of ¹⁵N chemical shift at natural abundance, respectively. DFT/B3LYP optimization studies were performed in order to determine the geometry of 2c using 6-31G(d,p), 6-311G(d,p), and 6–311 + G(d,p) basis sets. For calculation of ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts, ⁿJ_HH (n = 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6), and ⁿJ_CH (n = 1, 2, 3, and 4) coupling constants, the GIAO method was employed at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p), B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p), B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,2p), B3LYP/cc-pVTZ), and B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ) levels of theory. For the first time, a stereochemical dependence magnitude of the long-range ⁿJ_HH (n = 4, 5, and 6) and ⁿJ_CH (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) have been found in bromo-substituted analogues of Tröger's bases.
