Carbon-13 NMR spectra of monosubstituted pyrazines

Carbon-13 NMR chemical shifts and one-bond carbon–hydrogen coupling constants have been obtained at 15·09 MHz. The trends in the carbon chemical shifts obtained for the pyrazines parallel those of monosubstituted benzenes and 2-substituted pyridines, except for the direct effect of substitution where the pyrazines resemble pyridines not benzenes. The substituent effects on the ¹³C NMR spectra are generally quite similar to those in the ¹H NMR spectra. The ¹³C NMR spectrum of the tautomeric hydroxypyrazine has been compared with the ¹³C NMR spectra of 2-, 3- and 4-hydroxypyridines. Hydroxy compounds that can exist as a cyclic amide show a large meta substituent effect on the chemical carbon shift.     

Carbon-13 NMR studies of substituted naphthalenes. II—rotational barriers and conformations in some naphthaldehydes and azulenaldehydes

Proton-coupled and noise-decoupled ¹³C NMR spectra of 1-azulenecarbaldehyde, 1-acetylazulene and 1,3-azulenedicarbaldehyde have been studied, and complete assignments have been made based on the ¹³C? ¹H coupling constants, additivity of substituent effects (SIS), and previous assignment for the parent hydrocarbon. The barriers to rotation of the aldehyde group in the above azulenecarbaldehydes and in some naphthaldehydes have been determined by ¹³C dynamic NMR, (DNMR), resulting in free energies of activation of 42.7, 26.8 and 34.4 kJ mol^?1 for 1-azulenecarbaldehyde, 1-naphthaldehyde and 2-naphthaldehyde respectively. The same order of barriers is obtained by CNDO/2 calculations. A 4-methoxy substituent in 1-naphthaldehyde and a 6-methoxy substituent in 2-naphthaldehyde increases the rotational barrier by 4.6 and 2.9 kJ mol^?1, respectively, whereas a 3-methoxy substituent in 2-naphthaldehyde reduces the barrier by 6.7 kJ mol^?1. The conformations of the dominant rotamers are deduced from ¹³C chemical shifts to be Z for 1-azulenecarbaldehyde and 1-naphthaldehyde, and E for 2-naphthaldehyde.     

13C n.m.r. of organosulphur compounds: II—13C chemical shifts and conformational analysis of methyl substituted thiacyclohexanes

¹³C n.m.r. spectra of methyl substituted thianes and thianium cations have been determined. The magnitude of the ¹³C substituent effects of an equatorial methyl group or of a gem-dimethyl grouping appear to depend in a systematic way on whether the carbon atom concerned is adjacent to, or removed from, the heteroatom. The shieldings are discussed in relation to the conformational properties of the thiane ring. Moreover, the average ¹³C substituent parameters obtained from conformationally biased systems are applied to potentially mobile systems to assess the position of the conformational equilibrium.     

13C nuclear magnetic resonance studies of sesquiterpenes,anisatin and neoanisatin: The structure of anisatinic acid,a novel isomerization product of anisatin

¹³C NMR spectra are reported for derivatives of toxic sesquiterpenes, anisatin (I) and neoanisatin (II). Chemical shifts for each compound have been assigned on the basis of off-resonance decoupling experiments, known chemical shift rules, and comparison of the spectra among the compounds examined. Toxic anisatin (I) is known to isomerize under mild conditions to a non-toxic compound, anisatinic acid. The structure of anisatinic acid has been determined unambiguously to be IIIa by the ¹³C NMR spectral analysis of a derivative 8 of anisatinic acid. Some aspects of the substituent effects on the ¹³C chemical shifts obtained in the present investigation are described.     

Natural abundance 13C NMR investigation of substituted bromobenzene using noise decoupling of proton resonances

The natural abundance ¹³C NMR spectra of bromobenzene and ten derivatives have been obtained using the technique of noise modulated decoupling of the proton resonances. Assignments have been made for all ¹³C resonance signals using an additivity rule. The chemical shifts of the aromatic carbon nuclei in the para-substituted compounds are discussed in terms of the Taft parameters (σ_R, σ_I) and the electronegativity of the substituent.     

Carbon-13 NMR spectra of ferrocenes and ferrocenyl-alkylium ions

The proton-coupled and proton-decoupled pulsed Fourier-transform ¹³C NMR spectra of a series of neutral ferrocene derivatives and ferrocenylalkylium ions have been recorded and analysed. The influence of a substituent group upon the ¹³C shifts of the carbons of the ferrocene rings has been investigated. The spectra of the ferrocenylalkylium ions are discussed in relation to the distribution of positive charge and to the various structural models which have been proposed for such species.     

Carbon-13 chemical shifts of substituted nortricyclenes

¹³C NMR spectra of a series of substituted nortricyclene derivatives have been measured, and the ¹³C chemical shifts interpreted in terms of α, β, γ and δ-effects. The nature of these substiuent shifts is discussed together with some analytical possibilities. The substituent shifts provide valuable data about the steric effects in strained molecules and can be used as increments for structural analysis, particularly for the determination of orientations of substituent groups.     

13C NMR spectra of wedeloside and related kaurenoid derivatives

The ¹³C NMR spectra of the diterpenoid aminoglycoside wedeloside and certain of its derivatives, representatives of a new kaurenoid series, have been assigned. Shift calculations and labelling experiments have established a general substituent additivity relationship for chemical shifts in kaur-16-enes which allowed the reassignment of certain ¹³C resonances in the previously reported spectra of other kaur-16-enes.     

Investigation of substituted 1,3-oxazolidines using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy

The characteristics of the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of 1,3-oxazolidines with substituents in the 2-, 3-, and 5-positions have been studied. The relation of the spectral characteristics to the structure and configuration of the compounds has been examined, and information on the transmission of the substituent effect through the atoms of nitrogen and oxygen has been obtained.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1255–1260, September, 1986.     

Carbon-13 chemical shift assignments of the nitration products of pyrene

¹³C and ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra have been obtained in order to identify the six nitration products of pyrene—1-nitropyrene, 1,3-dinitropyrene, 1,6-dinitropyrene, 1,8-dinitropyrene, 1,3,6-trinitropyrene and 1,3,6,8-tetranitropyrene. ¹³C chemical shifts in DMSO-d₆ were assigned using empirical rules, with particular emphasis on the additivity of the substituent effects. Carbon spectra of separated dinitromixtures enabled identification of the previously unreported 1,3-isomer, and proton spectra differentiated the 1,6- and 1,8- isomers.     

A study of substituent effect on 1H and 13C nmr spectra of N‐ and C‐substituted carbazoles

¹H and ¹³C nmr spectra of several N‐ and C‐substituted carbazoles (Series 1, 2, 3 and 4) were measured. Correlations between chemical shifts and substituent constants show that these parameters describe properly the substituent effect on the nmr phenomena. Atomic charge densities for carbazoles of Series 1, 2, 3 and 4 were calculated by using the semi empirical PM3 method. These values also show a linear correlation with the ¹³C chemical shifts. The synthesis of several carbazole derivatives 1a – 1g, 2a – 2g, 3a – 3j and 4a – 4g have been carried out according to literature procedures. The carbazoles 3i, 3j and 4c have been synthesized and fully characterized for the first time.     

13C-NMR-spektroskopie chinoider verbindungen—II: Substituierte 1,4-naphthochinone und anthrachinone

Proton coupled and proton noise decoupled ¹³C-NMR spectra of 18 1,4-napthoquinones and 13 anthraquinones with oxygen, nitrogen and halogen substituents have been measured. The assignment of the spectra was largely achieved with the aid of the two- and three-bond spin-spin coupling between ¹³C and protons and the substituent effects.     

Substituenteneffekte auf die NMR-Spektren von Pentafulvenen. (13C, 13C)-NMR-Kopplungskonstanten (1J(C,C))

Substituent Effects on NMR Spectra of Pentafulvenes. ¹³C, ¹³C-NMR Coupling Constants (¹J(C, C)) ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectra of 6-monosubstituted pentafulvenes 1 – 8 have been analysed, and ¹J(C, C) coupling constants have been determined from ID-inadequate spectra of ¹³C satellites. It turns out that ¹³C,¹³C coupling constants of the ring C-atoms, and especially J(1,2)/J(3,4) and J(2,3), reflect the extent of π delocalisation in the fulvene ring. With increasing electron-donating capacity of the substituent R, J(1,2)/J(3,4) values are decreasing, while J(2,3) (and J(1,5)/J(4,5) as well) are increasing, and linear correlations of Hammett substituent constants σ⁺ and ¹J(C,C) values are obtained.     

Investigation of Substituent Effects on Proton and Carbon-13 Chemical Shifts of 4-Substituted Trans-Stilbenes

Proton and carbon-13 chemical shifts of para-substituted stilbenes have been measured. ¹H-¹H, ¹H-¹³C COSY spectra were obtained to analyze unambiguously the chemical shifts of protons and carbons. A long range coupling between 2-H and α-H was observed in a ¹H-¹H COSY spectrum. The observed chemical shifts have been correlated with Hammett substituent parameters. Among ethenyl protons and carbons, all but the chemical shifts of α-H show good correlation with both dual substituent parameters and single substituent parameters. In addition to this finding, the excellent linear correlations of C-l, and 4′-H of 4-substituted trans-stilbenes are also reported. Besides the correlations of chemical shifts with Hammett parameters, a good correlation between the chemical shifts and the calculated charges of position C-4′ are reported.     

13c-chemische verschiebungen und substituenteneffekte in methylazulenen

The ¹³C chemical shifts of all possible monomethyl azulenes and of some polymethyl derivatives have been determined by the Pulse Fourier Transform technique and have been assigned on the basis of ¹³C,H coupling constants and/or splitting patterns taken from proton coupled ¹³C NMR spectra. The shift differences observed in the monomethyl derivatives as compared to azulene itself are additive as far as sterically unperturbed polymethyl derivatives are concerned and can be viewed on as substituent constants. As is shown by the results of HMO- and EHT-calculations the substituent induced shifts in monomethyl azulenes without sterical hindrance can be correlated with charge density changes, with the exception of the β -effect, which is proportional to the bond length resp. the π bond order.     

Spectres RMN des Polysaccharides et de leurs Dérivés: Influence des Substituants sur le Déplacement Chimique 13C

Methyl and acetyl substituent effects on ¹³C chemical shift have been determined on (α 1→3), (α 1→4), (β 1→3) and (β 1→4) linked polysaccharides such as pseudo-nigerane, β-cyclodextrine, amylose, laminarane and cellulose. Methyl α- and β-D -glucopyranoside have been used as monomer model compounds. Shift determination of hydroxylated and substituted polysaccharides requires unambiguous assignment of their ¹³C spectra. Selective heteronuclear spin decoupling and the isotope effect of deuterated hydroxyl have been used as assignment techniques.     

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance studies on dichloropyridoquinolines

Carbon-13 NMR chemical shifts are reported for six angular and one linear dichloropyridoquinolines in CDCl₃. The chemical shift assignments have been made using model compounds, fully coupled spectra, selective proton decoupling and results from lanthanide shift studies. Chlorine substituent effects are compared to those reported for chloroquinolines. The effect of the heteroaromatic nitrogen atoms on ¹³C? ¹H coupling constants in these polycyclic systems are compared to those reported for pyridine systems.     

1H and 13C NMR studies on 1,3,2-dioxarsolanes

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of a series of 1,3,2-dioxarsolanes have been obtained at 2.1 T and some at 9.4 T. The chemical shifts and spin-spin coupling constants have been obtained from complete spectral analyses of the ¹H and proton-coupled ¹³C spectra. The spectral data are interpreted on the basis of two rapidly interconverting half-chair conformers with a pseudoaxial substituent at arsenic. Unique assignment of syn/anti or cis/trans geometries have been made from ¹H or ¹³C NMR spectroscopy alone. The syn and trans isomers of the 4-methyl- and 4,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxarsolanes, respectively, appear to be conformationally biased towards the forms with pseudoequatorial methyl groups. The general trends in the geminal and vicinal ¹H? ¹H and ¹³C? ¹H coupling constants are interpreted in terms of stereospecific, electronegativity and lone-pair effects of the oxygen heteroatoms and conformational factors. The NMR data on the 1,3,2-dioxarsolanes are discussed with reference to related 1,3-dithoxa- and 1,3-dithia- five-membered rings with As, P, S or C at the 2-position.     

Substituent effects on 13C?13C coupling constants and chemical shifts in 13C labelled polycyclic aromatic hydroxy compounds

The effects of an hydroxy substituent on ¹³C? ¹³C coupling constants and ¹³C chemical shifts have been measured in 1-hydroxynaphthalene-2-¹³C and 1-hydroxypyrene-1-¹³C. The changes observed in the ¹³C? ¹³C couplings show the effect of a substituent attached directly to the labelled carbon or to a carbon ortho to this. In both situations the effect is a decrease in the numerical magnitude of most of the long range ¹³C? ¹³C coupling constants.     

13C-NMR study of cresyl benzoates

The proton-decoupled ¹³C FT—NMR spectra of para-, meta- and ortho-cresyl benzoates have been recorded and the observed signals have been assigned following the substituent additivity rule. The important features of diagnostic value of these spectra are discussed.
