13C NMR spectra and structure of some coumarin derivatives

The results are given of a study of the¹³C NMR spectra of (–)-3(R)-decursinol, obtusifol, bergapten, isoimperatorin, and oxypeucedanin and its hydrate. The possibility has been shown of using the principle of additive contributions in the assignment of the signals of the carbon atoms in the compounds under investigation.Institute of Toxicology, Ministry of Health of the USSR, Leningrad.

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.     

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 3- and 5-substituted flavone derivatives

Summary The¹³C NMR of a number of 3- and 5-hydroxyflavones and of 3- and 5-methoxyflavones have been studied for the first time and all the signals have been assigned. A comparison of the chemical shifts of the¹³C nuclei with the acidity and basicity parameters of the compounds investigated and with the results of calculations of -charge density has been made. It has been shown that the chemical shifts of the individual signals in the¹³C NMR spectra are qualitatively connected with estimates of the reactivities of the compounds studied.Irkutsk Institute of Organic Chemistry, Siberian Branch of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR.

13C-NMR spectra of fluorinated molecules using 19F-13C polarization transfer

¹³C-NMR spectra of fluorinated molecules are difficult to observe under conventional broad-band proton decoupling. The large coupling constants involved make polarization transfer between fluorine and carbon, using INEPT or DEPT experiments very effective while broad band fluorine decoupling collapses the multiplet pattern.     

The 13C NMR spectra and structure of ferrocenylcarbenium ions

The ¹³C NMR spectra ofthe series of α,α’ -dideuterated ferrocenylcarbenium ions and their precursors, ferrocenylcarbinols as well as other ferrocene derivatives have been measured. The structures of ferrocenylcarbenium ions is discussed.     

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     

Investigation of sesquiterpene lactones by13C NMR spectroscopy. III.13C MNR spectra of artemin and its derivatives

The¹³C NMR spectra obtained under conditions of complete and incomplete decoupling from protons of the sesquiterpene lactone artemin (I), its dihydro derivative (II), and its acetyl derivative (III) have been studied. An assignment has been made of the chemical shifts of all the carbon atoms by comparison of the¹³C NMR spectra of (I), (II), and (III) with one another and also by comparison with literature information.V.

13C NMR spectra of adamantane derivatives

The carbon-13 chemical shifts of mono- and 1,3-disubstituted adamantanes are reported. The effects caused by the substituents are compared with those met in aliphatic and alicyclic compounds. It is shown that the 1,4-interactions have only minor importance in l-substituted adamantanes. The influence of polar groups on the chemical shifts of γ- and δ-carbon atoms is a typical ‘through-the-bonds’ interaction and correlates with inductive parameters of the substituents.     

13C NMR spectra of some coumarins of Haplophyllum obtusifolium

Coumaris ofHaplophyllum obtusifolium Ledeb. — obtusinin, capensin, and fraxetin 7-O--D-glucopyranoside — have been investigated by¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Several distinctive features of their NMR spectra have been observed. A complete assignment of the¹³C NMR spectra of these coumarins has been made and their structures have been confirmed.Institute of the Chemistry of Plant Substances, Uzbek SSR Academy of Sciences, Tashkent.

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].     

The 13C NMR spectra of π-arenechromium carbonyl complexes

The ¹³C NMR spectra of π-arenechromium complexes XC₆H₅Cr(CO)₂L (where I, L  CO; II, L  PPh₃; X  aliphatic and aromatic substituents) were investigated. The effect of the nature of the substituent X on the chemical shifts of the carbon atoms of the aromatic ring in these complexes was analyzed.It was established that a correlation exists between δ(¹³C) and σ_R (Taft's constant) in complexes I, not only for C(4) nuclei but also for C(3) metal atoms, the difference being that the slopes of the corresponding curves are opposite.     

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.     

Configurational equilibria and 13C NMR spectra of tetracyclic saturated hydrocarbons

The stereoisomeric equilibrium composition over Pd/C at high temperature of a series of tetracyclic saturated hydrocarbons having general formula C₁₈H₃₀ was determined by gas chromatography and compared with that calculated on the basis of conformational analysis. Several stereoisomers were isolated. Their ¹³C NMR spectra agree very well with those calculated according to standard procedures. This method of structural determination was applied to perhydronaphthacene, perhydrobenzo(a)anthracene, 2- and 5-methylper-hydrobenzo (d,e)anthracene and 2,7-dimethylperhydropyrene.

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.

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.     

13C NMR spectra of η3 -allylmanganesetetracarbonyl compounds; structural implications

The ¹³C NMR spectra of η³-allylmanganese tetracarbonyl complexes are consistent with an overall C_s, symmetry and involving a σ_v plane in the Mn(CO)₄ fragment. A dynamic carbonyl interchange process was looked for but the results are inconclusive, however the barrier for this process is certainly greater than 42 kJ/mol. This observation suggests an octahedral type geometry rather than a square pyramid type configuration.
