13C NMR of pterocarpans

¹³CNMR spectra of eight pterocarpans are reported Assignments are based on multiplicities and second-order features in off-resonance decoupled spectra and on chemical shifts in model compounds. Comparison of the degree of long-range (C, H) coupling in ¹H-coupled spectra is found useful     

Fourier 13C NMR and PMR including 13C satellites of oriented cyanopropyne

Fourier ¹³C and proton NMR spectra of cyanopropyne partially oriented by a nematic phase have been recorded and interpreted. It is shown that more accurate measurements are obtained much more rapidly by observing ¹³C satellites by Fourier PMR than by direct observation of the ¹³C spectrum. The geometry has been extracted from direct couplings; a small but systematic discrepancy with microwave spectroscopy is observed for the carboncarbon bond lengths.     

13C NMR spectrum of coumarin

Summary The positions of the signals from the C₃, C₅, C₆, and C₇ carbon atoms in the¹³C NMR spectrum of coumarin have been established with the aid of information obtained from the¹³C NMR spectra of [3-D]-, [4-D]-, and 7-methoxycoumarins and by the use of an additive calculation based on the increments of the methoxy group in the¹³C NMR spectrum of anisole.M.

Substituent Effects on 13C NMR and 1H NMR Chemical Shifts of CH=N in Multi-substituted Benzylideneanilines

Fifty-three samples of multi-substituted benzylideneanilines XArCH=NArYs (abbreviated XBAYs) were synthesized and their NMR spectra were determined. An extensional study of substituent effects on the ¹H NMR chemical shifts (^δH(CH=N)) and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts (^δC(CH=N)) of the CH=N bridging group from di-substituted to multi-substituted XBAYs was made based on a total of 182 samples of XBAYs, together with the NMR data of other 129 samples of di-substituted XBAYs quoted from literatures. The results show that the substituent specific cross-interaction effect parameter \begin{document} $\left(\Delta\left(\displaystyle\sum\sigma\right)^2\right)$ \end{document} plays an important role in quantifying the ^δC(CH=N) values of XBAYs, but it is negligible for quantifying the ^δH(CH=N) values; the other substituent parameters also present different influences on the ^δC(CH=N) and ^δH(CH=N). On the whole, the contributions of X and Y to the ^δC(CH=N) of XBAYs are balanced, but the ^δH(CH=N) values of XBAYs mainly rely on the contributions of X.     

13C NMR spectroscopy of cyclopentenpoliols

The ¹³C NMR spectral parameters of eleven cyclopentenpoliols are discussed. Chemical shift criteria to distinguish isomeric 3' and 4' monodeoxy eucommiols have been clearly established.     

29Si and 13C NMR spectra of permethylpolysilanes

²⁹Si, ¹³C and ¹H NMR spectra are reported for the series of linear permethylpolysilanes Me(SiMe₂)_nMe where n = 1 to 6, for the cyclic permethylpolysilanes (Me₂Si)_n where n = 5 to 8, and for a few related compounds. For linear polysilanes the ²⁹Si and ¹³C chemical shifts can be accurately calculated from simple additivity relationships based on the number of silicon atoms in α, β, γ and δ positions. Adjacent (α) silicon atoms lead to upfield shifts in the ²⁹Si and ¹³C resonances, whereas more remote silicon atoms lead to downfield shifts. The ²⁹Si chemical shifts of the polysilane chains are linearly related to the ¹³C shifts of the carbon atoms attached to the silicon. The ²⁹Si and ¹³C resonances of the cyclic silanes deviate from this relationship. Ring current effects arising from σ delocalization are suggested as an explanation for the deviations. Proton-coupled ²⁹Si NMR spectra are reported for Me₃SiSiMe₃ and for (Me₂Si)_n, n = 5 to 7.     

13C NMR spectra of some furocoumarins

¹³C NMR spectra of some naturally occurring furocoumarins and derivatives have been examined. The assignment of chemical shifts for all the C atoms has been achieved by using techniques recently reported by Bose et al.     

13C NMR substituent effects in tetracyclic diterpenoids

The ¹³C NMR chemical shifts of ent-beyer-15-ene, and one hydroxy and four acetoxy derivatives are reported. The substituent effects of the acetoxy groups upon the saturated and olefinic carbon atoms are discussed. Conformational aspects of the molecules are considered in the light of these effects.     

13C high-resolution NMR study of undoped polyacetylene

¹³C NMR spectra of undoped polyacetylene,(CH)_x, have been measured. The existence of 3.4 mol% methylene moieties as defects in the (CH)_x chains has been observed in trans-(CH)_x. Measurements of partially cis-to-trans isomerized (CH)_x suggest the existence of isolated cis regions.     

A 13C NMR study of the structure of sulfur-stabilized carbanions

The structure of the lithium and potassium salts of φSCH₃,φSOCH₃,φSO₂CH₃,φSO(NCH₃)CH₃ has been studied by ¹³C NMR in different solvents. The results show that the metalated carbon is nearly pyramidal in and nearly planar in φSOCH₂^?M⁺, whatever the solvent are cation are φSO₂CH₂^? φSCH₂^?M⁺ and φSO(NCH₃)CH₂^?M⁺ are in an intermediate hydridization state, cation and solvent dependent. For the sulfoxide, a four-center chelate is proposed, stable to strong solvating agents and only disrupted by cryptands. It is very likely responsible for the planar configuration of the anionic carbon.The low temperature study of φSOCH₂Li shows the existence of aggregates in THF. HMPA or external lithium salts disrupt these associations, giving rise to other species.The ¹³C NMR parameters of the whole series of sulfur-stabilized carbanions are quite consistent with the date reported for phosphorous and arsenic ylids: the

coupling constants appear to be a good probe of the geometry of the anionic carbon, whereas the chemical shifts are rather insensitive to its hybridization state.     

NMR 13C study of the structure of polyethyleneimine

The NMR ¹³C (CMR) spectrum of high molecular weight (M = 20,000) branched polyethyleneimine (PEI) obtained by polymerization of ethyleneimine (EI) in aqueous and alcoholic solutions at 50° with 1,3-dichloropropanol as initiator, contains 8 lines. The lines were identified using CMR spectra of model compounds, i.e. linear PEI, regularly branched PEI, diethylenetriamine and ethyleneimine pentamer. It has been shown that the deshielding effect of the nitrogen atoms on the α-atoms of carbon decreases in the folowing order: N_tert > N_sec > N_prim; with the atoms of carbon in the β-position, the effect increases in the opposite order.A quantitative estimation has been made of the distribution of the diads of elementary units containing the same and different nitrogen atoms. The data have been used to draw some conclusions about the structure of the PEI macromolecule.     

14N and 13C NMR of tautomeric systems of hydroxy-pyridines

¹⁴N NMR is shown to be an efficient method of investigation of the tautomeric equilibria in hydroxy-and related substituted pyridines. Large relative ¹⁴N chemical shifts within tautomeric pairs estimated from N-Me and O-Me derivatives make possible quantitative determinations of the equilibria. Qualitative conclusions may be drawn from ¹⁴N line widths as well as from ¹³C and proton chemical shifts.     

29Si and 13C NMR Studies of organofunctional di- and trisilanes

A series of di- and trisilanes of general structure Ph₃SiSiMe₂R and (Ph₃Si)₂SiR′R″ were synthesized, and the ²⁹Si and ¹³C chemical shifts and one-bond siliconsilicon coupling constants (¹J_SiSi) were measured. The coupling constants of the disilanes were found to be primarily dependent upon the inductive effect of the alkyl group, R, as measured by the Taft o^★ constant. In both series of compounds, increasing alkyl substitution at silicon led to a decrease in ¹J_SiSi.     

A 13CNMR study of the carbohydrate portion of ristocetin A

A ¹³C NMR study of the antibiotic ristocetin A establishes two changes which must be made to the structures hitherto accepted for the carbohydrate portion of the antibiotic.     

29Si and 13C NMR spectra of chloro- and fluoro-substituted linear permethylpolysilanes

²⁹Si and ¹³C NMR spectra are reported for the three halopolysilane series Me(SiMe₂)_nCl, Cl(SiMe₂)_nCl and F(SiMe₂)_nF, where n = 2 to 6. Except for the dihalodisilanes (XSiMe₂)₂, data for all of the compounds fit linear relationships based on substituent constants for chlorine or fluorine atoms in the α, β and γ positions. The effects of halogen substitution on ²⁹Si and ¹³C chemical shifts are rapidly attenuated along the polysilane chain, becoming negligible four atoms away from the halogen. The NMR data provide no evidence for long-range electronic transmission from chlorine or fluorine in halopermethylpolysilanes of the type suggested by other workers [1].
