1H-NMR spectra of some ditriazolyls and ditriazolyalkanes

Summary The proton magnetic resonance spectra of 12 azoles were measured in neutral and acidic solvents. The protonation shifts observed by comparison of the spectra inDMSO-d ₆ andTFA were attributed to an amidinium type resonance of the resulting cations. The synthesis and characterization of the azoles are also discussed.

¹H-NMR-Spektren einiger Ditriazolyle und Ditriazolylalkane

Zusammenfassung Es wurden die¹H-NMR-Spektren von 12 Azol-Verbindungen in neutralem (DMSO-d ₆) und azidischem (TFA) Lösungsmittel gemessen und die chemischen Verschiebungswerte verglichen. Der Unterschied beider Werte beruht höchstwahrscheinlich auf einer Amidinium-Typ Resonanz der im azidischen Bereich entstandenen Kationen. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden 12 Azol-Verbindungen synthetisiert und beschrieben.

     

Analysis of 1H-NMR spectra of various end-functionalized polyisobutylenes

¹H-NMR spectra of various telechelic (i.e., ～ CH₂C(CH₃)₂Cl, ～ CH₂C(CH₃)?CH₂, ～ CH?C(CH₃)₂, and ～ CH₂CH(CH₃)CH₂OH capped) polyisobutylenes (PIB) have been analyzed. The products were prepared by living carbocationic polymerization followed by end-group functionalization. Shielding and deshielding effects strongly influence the ¹H-NMR spectra of these products. Inductive effects (chlorine-ended PIBs), magnetically anisotropic end-groups (olefin groups and phenyl rings), allylic coupling (olefin end-groups), chirality (hydroxyl end-groups), and the interaction of these effects on the ¹H-NMR spectra are discussed. Numerous heretofore unidentified resonances have been assigned and better insight into the detailed structure of end-functionalized PIBs has been obtained. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Angular dependence of 1H-NMR and 2H-NMR spectra of water absorbed in cellulose film

¹H-NMR and ²H-NMR spectra of water (H₂O and D₂O) absorbed in Visking cellulose tubing have been observed as a function of the angle Θ between the film surface and the magnetic field. ¹H-NMR spectra show broad lines, and the chemical shift and the linewidth depend on Θ. From the angular dependence of the chemical shift, the anisotropic volume diamagnetic susceptibilities of the film are determined, i.e., χ_∥ in the direction longitudinal to the tubing (stretched direction) is 0.43 ppm, and χ_⊥ in the transverse direction is 0.57 ppm. The different values of χ_∥ and χ_⊥ afford an evidence of the anisotropy of the film. ²H-NMR spectra of D₂O absorbed in the film show quadrupole splitting which also depends on Θ. The angular dependences of the linewidth (¹H-NMR) and the quadrupole splitting (²H-NMR) indicate that the H? H axes of the water molecules have a tendency to orient in the direction longitudinal to the film surface.     

On the 1H-NMR spectra of highly charged multi-triphenylmethylium ions

Relative to their neutral precursors, higly charged multi-tritylium ions show typical downfield ¹H-NMR shifts, whereas the corresponding phenylfluorenylium ions show upfield shifts. A Hückel based model is presented that accounts for this contrasting behavior in terms of antiaromatic ring current in the five-membered ring of the fluorenyl system with essentially null ring currents in the two six-membered rings.     

300 MHz 1H-NMR study of poly(propylene sulfide)

An ¹H 300-MHz NMR spectroscopic study of deuterated poly(propylene sulfide) shows that methylene protons are sensitive to triad effects. It was possible to distinguish i, h_i, s, and h_s triads. Experimental values found for different polymers are in good agreement with theoretical amounts obtained from statistical probability calculation. The methyl groups are also slightly stereosensitive. By using optically active deuterated monomers with different R/S ratios it was possible to confirm the assignment of peaks and the tacticity. Nondeuterated polymers give very complicated spectra, and only the highly stereoregular polymer could be analyzed through its ABCX₃ spin system.     

19F- and 1H-NMR spectra of tetrafluoroethylene–propylene copolymers

High resolution 94-MHz ¹⁹F- and 100-MHz ¹H-NMR spectra were measured on a series of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE)-propylene (P) copolymers having a range of composition (TFE/P molar ratio = 37/63–55/45) and polymerized at different temperatures (?23, 25 and 65°C). The spectra were analyzed in relation to copolymer compositions. The assignment of ¹⁹F resonance in terms of tetrads proposed previously was confirmed, and the tentative assignment of ¹H resonances was proposed in terms of triads. The spectra thus interpreted revealed the sequence distribution of the copolymers. Copolymer compositions calculated from NMR spectra and elemental analysis agreed rather well with each other. Monomer reactivity ratios were calculated from the sequence distributions and compared with those obtained from the elemental analysis. It was observed that highly alternating copolymers are obtained in this system over a wide range of monomer composition at lower temperatures and that a deviation from alternancy increases slightly with rising polymerization temperature.     

A reassessment of the 1H-NMR spectra of styrene/methyl methacrylate copolymers

The methoxy ¹H-NMR assignments in the 2.1–3.7δ region for styrene/methyl methacrylate copolymers have been assessed in terms of pentad sensitivity. Several of the methoxy resonances suggested by this study differ from literature assignments. The evidence in support of these reasignments is based on a comparison of calculated and observed triad distributions and on the good agreement of the value of the reactivity ratio r_M calculated from individual triads with that obtained by classical methods. A new procedure for the determination of the tacticity coefficient σ is applied.     

Disentangling proton connectivity networks in highly overlapped 1H-NMR spectra of polynuclear aromatics using 1D-HOHAHA

One-dimensional ( 1D ) variants of two-dimensional ( 2D ) nmr techniques can frequently provide the required information in a much shorter period of time than the 2D experiment from which they were derived. Application of the 1D homonuclear Hartmann-Hahn (1D-HOHAHA) experiment to establish proton-proton connectivity networks in highly overlapped four-spin systems in the proton nmr spectra of polynuclear aromatics is described. Selective subspectra are contrasted to the data obtained in a COSY experiment on the same molecule, benzo[f][l]benzothieno [2,3 -c]quinoline. Results from the 1D-HOHAHA technique are especially useful when component resonances from several spin systems are heavily overlapped. Relayed 1D-HOHAHA provides the means of exploiting small, long range coupling pathways of polynuclear aromatics.     

An efficient spectra processing method for metabolite identification from 1H-NMR metabolomics data

The spectra processing step is crucial in metabolomics approaches, especially for proton NMR metabolomics profiling. During this step, noise reduction, baseline correction, peak alignment and reduction of the 1D ¹H-NMR spectral data are required in order to allow biological information to be highlighted through further statistical analyses. Above all, data reduction (binning or bucketing) strongly impacts subsequent statistical data analysis and potential biomarker discovery. Here, we propose an efficient spectra processing method which also provides helpful support for compound identification using a new data reduction algorithm that produces relevant variables, called buckets. These buckets are the result of the extraction of all relevant peaks contained in the complex mixture spectra, rid of any non-significant signal. Taking advantage of the concentration variability of each compound in a series of samples and based on significant correlations that link these buckets together into clusters, the method further proposes automatic assignment of metabolites by matching these clusters with the spectra of reference compounds from the Human Metabolome Database or a home-made database. This new method is applied to a set of simulated ¹H-NMR spectra to determine the effect of some processing parameters and, as a proof of concept, to a tomato ¹H-NMR dataset to test its ability to recover the fruit extract compositions. The implementation code for both clustering and matching steps is available upon request to the corresponding author.

NMR spectra and structures of protonated 1-vinylpyrroles

Stable 1-vinylpyrrolium fluorosulfonates were prepared by the reaction of 1-vinylpyrroles with excess HSO₃F at –50°C in CD₂Cl₂ and their ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra were obtained. Despite its overall positive charge, the pyrrole ring remains an electron donor relative to the vinyl group. Delocalization of the positive charge onto substituents decreases in the order 2-heteroaryl > 2-aryl > 2-alkyl.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 48–57, January, 1993.     

1H-NMR spectra of poly(ethylene glycols) in the presence of shift reagent

To determine the content of trans-gauche-trans (TGT) conformation in poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) ¹H-NMR spectra were measured with tris(1,1,1,2,2,3,3-heptafluoro-7,7-dimethyl-1,4,6-octanedinato)europium(III) [Eu(fod)₃] as a shift reagent. As a result the peaks assigned to the ethylene protons in the polymeric segments separated from those assigned to four ethylene protons as the “near-end” groups, and the singlet peak in the former at the lowest field was assigned to the TGT conformation of the COCCOC sequence. It was confirmed that the conformation of the polymeric segments in PEG complexed with Eu(fod)₃ remained unchanged with benzene-d₆ content as the solvent. The concentration of TGT conformation increased with the number-average molecular weight (M _n): it increased rapidly until about 70% at M _n = 1500.     

Improved NMR methods for the direct 13C-satellite-selective excitation in overlapped 1H-NMR spectra

Improved pulsed-field gradient echo methods are presented and discussed for the direct selective excitation of the (13)C-satellite lines in overcrowded (1)H NMR spectra of small molecules. Sensitivity enhancements in (13)C spin-state selection can be achieved by combining multiple-proton-frequency excitation and Hadamard phase encoding. Several satellite-selective (SATSEL) NMR experiments are proposed and exemplified by measuring the sign and the magnitude of small, long-range proton-carbon coupling constants for (1)H resonances showing several levels of signal overlapping.     

Quantification of partial structures of aquatic humic substances by 1H-NMR under WATR conditions

Aquatic humic substances (HS) isolated from surface water, leakage water and ground water have been investigated by ¹H-NMR. The overlapping HOD signal was eliminated by adding ammonium chloride and applying the multiecho method CPMG (Carr, Purcell, Meiboom, Gill) under WATR conditions (water attenuation by transverse relaxation) permitting quantification of partial structures of HS. The proportion of carbohydrates/alcohols/ethers decreases and the proportion of alkyl moieties increases with increasing water or soil depth and thus microbial diagenesis. Also, increasing deoxygenation of aromatic substituents is observed with increasing water or soil depth. In some cases, elimination of the NMR signal of HOD is accompanied by the appearance of another HOD signal which is slightly shifted and much smaller in intensity; this signal probably results from water strongly bound by hydrogen bonding within the HS macromolecules.     

The structures of 2-(4,5-dihydro-5-aryl-3-isoxazolyl)-1-arylethanone oximes. An unusual behaviour in its 1H-NMR and mass spectra

The reaction of dibenzalacetones substituted on the aromatic ring with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and potassium hydroxide in refluxing ethanol affords several compounds. Herein, we report the structures and spectral properties of several oximes of 2-(4,5-dihydro-5-aryl-3-isoxazolyl)-1-arylethanones 6 . Unusual behaviour on its ¹H-nmr and mass spectra was observed. Single crystal X-ray diffraction was performed on compound 6d to support our structural considerations abouth the title compounds.     

Multivariate analysis for 1H-NMR spectra of two hundred kinds of tea in the world.

NMR measurements coupled with pattern-recognition analysis offer a powerful mixture-analysis tool for latent-feature extraction and sample classification. As fundamental applications of this analysis for mixtures, the 1H spectra of 176 kinds of green, black, oolong and other tea infusions were acquired by a 500 MHz NMR spectrometer. Each spectrum pattern was analyzed by a multivariate statistical pattern-recognition method where Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used in combination with Soft Independent Modeling of Class Analogy (SIMCA). SIMCA effectively selected variables that contribute to tea categorization. The final PCA resulted in clear classification reflecting the fermentation and processing of each tea, and revealed marker variables that include catechin and theanine peaks.     

1H-NMR study of polyisoprenes

¹H-NMR spectra of polyisoprene were assigned using polymers of isoprene-1,1,4,4-d₄, isoprene-1,1,5,5,5-d₅, and isoprene-4,4-d₂ polymerized with various catalysts. The methylene-proton signal at 2.1 ppm in cis-1,4 - and trans-1,4-polyisoprenes was divided into H₄- and H₁-proton signals; H₄ resonated at 2.21 ppm in both cis-1,4 and trans-1,4 units whereas H₁ resonated at 2.05, 2.21, and 2.15 ppm. Splitting due to the dyad sequences of 1,4 and 3,4 units was apparent. The methine-proton (H₃) in a 3,4 unit showed a broad peak centered around 1.5 ppm in C₆D₆. The overlapping of this signal with the methyl-proton signals at 1.73 and 1.63 ppm resulted in some uncertainty in the determination of the microstructure of polyisoprene which contained a considerable amount of 3,4 unit.     

1H-NMR spectra of complexes between methacrylic monomer and ethylaluminium dichloride in toluene and methylene chloride

¹H-NMR spectra of mixtures of a methacrylic monomer such as methacrylonitrile or methyl methacrylate and ethylaluminium dichloride at various molar ratios were measured in toluene or methylene chloride at various temperatures. It was found that only one kind of binary complex is detectable in the methacrylonitrile–ethylaluminum dichloride equimolar mixture, while in nonequimolar systems there are several kinds of binary complexes, depending on the molar ratio at low temperature in these solvents. Moreover, the chemical shifts of the protons of methacrylonitrile due to complex formation with ethylaluminum dichloride show a remarkable temperature dependence in toluene, but not in methylene chloride. This fact can be interpreted by an assumption of the formation of a ternary complex of methacrylonitrile, ethylaluminum dichloride, and aromatic donor molecules, mainly due to the dipole interaction between the nitrile group complexed with ethylaluminum dichloride and aromatic donor. The orientation of toluene molecules in the ternary complex of methacrylonitrile or methyl methacrylate is discussed.
