NMR study of some derivatives of dithiocarbazic acids

The NMR spectra of a series of methyl and phenyl derivatives of dithiocarbazic acid have been examined. The value of the chemical shift of the S-Me group is found to be 2·3–2·6 ppm, while for N²-Me and N³-Meδ is in the range 3·4–3·6 ppm, and 2·4–2·7 ppm, respectively.Present data suggest that the rotation about the SCN and SCS bonds is sterically hindered.     

Carbon‐13 NMR and PM3 Study on the Substituent Effect of 1‐Aryl‐3,3‐Difluoro‐2‐Halocyclopropenes

The substituent‐induced chemical shifts (SCS) of C2 and C3 on the ¹³C NMR spectra of 1‐aryl‐3,3‐difluoro‐2‐halocyclopropenes were studied. The correlation between SCS and Hammett constants shows that the tendency of effect by the substituents on the phenyl ring is BrC2(ρ = 4.66) > ClC2(ρ = 4.50) and ClC3(ρ = ?1.63) > BrC3(ρ = ?1.41). The DSP treatment further confirms the SCS of C2 and C3 are the main contribution of the resonance effect and field effect, respectively. Those results of the incremental shifts reveals that the gem‐difluorocyclopropenyl bearing the phenyl group possesses a triple bond character, which is also observed in IR spectra with high n?_C=C (1768–1945 cm^?1).     

17O NMR spectroscopy: Effect of substituents on chemical shifts for p-substituted benzoic acids,methyl benzoates,cinnamic acids and methyl cinnamates

The ¹⁷O NMR spectra for a series of ¹⁷O-enriched p-substituted benzoic acids, methyl benzoates, cinnamic acids and methyl cinnamates in acetone at 40°C are reported. The carboxylic acids showed one signal (benzoic 250.5 ppm, SCS range p-MeO to p-NO₂ = 10.5 ppm; cinnamic 254.1 ppm, SCS range p-MeO to p-NO₂ = 5.4 ppm). The esters showed two signals [methyl benzoate (C?O) 341.3 ppm and (OCH₃) 128.0 ppm; methyl cinnamate (C?O) 339.9 ppm and (OCH₃) 134.2 ppm]. The SCS ranges for the carbonyls of the esters were larger than those for the corresponding acids, while those for the OCH₃ groups of the esters were slightly smaller. The carbonyl data gave good correlations with σ⁺ constants, while the OCH₃ data gave at best only a poor correlation with σ constants. Dual substituent parameter treatment improved the correlations for all the data using σ_R+ constants. The ratios of ρ_I to ρ_R+ were similar for all the sets of data.     

Carbon-13 NMR studies of quinolines and isoquinolines. II. Chlorine–nitrogen interactions and N-oxide effects

Carbon-13 chemical shift assignments are reported for four chloroquinolines, six chloroisoquinolines, one dichloroquinoline, four dichloroisoquinolines, four methylchloroquinolines, two methylchloroisoquinolines, quinoline N-oxide, isoquinoline N-oxide, five methylquinoline N-oxides, two methylisoquinoline N-oxides and three chloroisoquinoline N-oxides. Chlorine substituent chemical shift (SCS) effects are reported for the alpha, ortho, meta, para and peri positions. Consistent patterns are observed for the para and peri positions, a vinylogous ortho pattern is reported and the additivity of these SCS effects is demonstrated. Alpha SCS effects vary widely from 1.1 ppm upfield in 1-chloroisoquinoline to 6.7 ppm downfield in 4-chloroquinoline. These results, together with those in the literature, permit the definition of steric and nitrogen lone-pair contributions which modify the ‘normal’ chlorine SCS effect, and these modifying contributions are shown to be roughly additive. Large (6–16 ppm) upfield shifts are observed for the carbons ortho and para to the N-oxide group. The individual magnitudes of these shifts and their sum are constant and the effects are additive in substituted systems. A 9.5 ppm upfield shift is also observed for C-8 in quinoline N-oxides which is attributed to a space–charge interaction. Substituent chemical shift (SCS) effects for the chloro and methyl groups and the chemical shifts of the methyl carbons are essentially the same in the N-oxides as in the parent heterocycles and are additive, except for those molecules where the substituent is adjacent to the N-oxide moiety, in which cases substantial interactions are observed.     

Stereochemical aspects of proton chemical shifts. VII. The γ effects of hydroxyl,methoxyl and methyl substituents

The ¹H NMR chemical shifts of some hydroxy, methoxy or methyl substituted trans-decalins, trans-1, 3-dioxadecalins and cyclohexanes are reported. It is concluded that the replacement in a g⁺g⁺ H? C? C? C? H fragment of one hydrogen by hydroxy, methoxy or methyl results in a modest (0.1 ppm) upfield shift of the other hydrogen atom. Experimental limitations to the transferability of shift increments from one molecular environment to another are demonstrated. The syntheses of 1α,5β-dimethoxy- and 1β,5α-dimethoxy-trans-decalin are given.     

13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. XV—the γ-anti substituent effect and its dependence on substitution at the α- and γ-carbon atom

It is shown that the γ_α effects of hetero substituents on the ¹³C chemical shift (γ_α SCS) are enlarged by +2 to +5 ppm by substituting the α-hydrogen atom by any group or atom (e.g. CH₃, OR, F, Cl, Br). The same is encountered when the axial γ-hydrogen is replaced by CH₃, OH or F. If, however, the substituting atom at the γ_α-carbon atom is a higher-row halogen (Cl or Br), diamagnetic γ_α SCS for this signal are observed which may even exceed those for unsubstituted γ_α-carbon atoms. The removal of a 1,3-diaxial hydrogen-hydrogen interaction and the existence of a still unspecified ‘heavy halogen effect’–both diamagnetic contributions to the γ_γ SCS of hetero substituents–are responsible for these findings. Methyl groups do not behave like hetero substituents with respect to the γ_α SCS.     

Investigation of the exo and endo isomers of dioxolane-type benzylidene derivatives of carbohydrates by 13C NMR spectroscopy

The absolute configurations of nine 2,3-O-benzylidene-α-L-rhamno- and α-D-mannopyranoside diasteteomeric pairs were determined and the ¹³C NMR spectra of further thirteen α-L-rhamno- and α-D-mannopyranosides, having various substituents, were completely assigned.Four ¹³C shifts were found suitable for the determination of the absolute configuration of the dioxolane skeleton. (1) The chemical shift of the acetal carbon in the endo isomers is between 103.9 and 104.7 ppm whereas for the exo isomers this region extends from 102.8 to 103.4 ppm; (2) The formation of the dioxolane ring causes a deshielding effect for the bridgehead carbons, in the exo isomers this effect is more pronounced for C-3 whereas in the endo isomers for C-2. For C-4, shielding effect was found in the exo isomers and deshielding effect in the endo ones; (3) The chemical shift of the quaternary carbon of the phenyl group is greater in the exo isomers than in the endo ones; (4) The difference between the shift of the acetal carbon and that of the quaternary carbon of the phenyl group in the exo isomers is greater than 35.4 ppm, in the endo isomers is less than 33.7 ppm.     

119Sn Chemical Shifts in five- and six-coordinate organotin chelates

¹¹⁹Sn chemical shifts, δ(¹¹⁹Sn), relative to Me₄Sn in five- and six-coordinate organotin chelates were measured by means of FT NMR spectroscopy. ¹¹⁹Sn resonances were found to lie between ca. ?90 and ?330 ppm in the five-coordinate compounds and between ca. ?125 and ?515 ppm in the six-coordinate derivatives. thus δ(¹¹⁹Sn) moves upfield by 60–150 ppm with a change of the coordination number of tin from four to five and by 130–200 ppm from five to six. the δ(¹¹⁹Sn) values were shifted depending on the nature of chelating ligands and this shift was discussed in terms of the bonding between the ligand and tin. Replacement of methyl groups attached to tin by phenyl groups in five- and six-coordinate compounds induces upfield shifts in δ(¹¹⁹Sn) parallel to those found in four-coordinate organotin halides.     

On the structure of dithizone

The ¹³C NMR spectrum of dithizone, unlike that of its oxygen analogue, shows only five different types of carbon atom. The ¹³C chemical shift of the C?S group in dithizone is only 7 ppm to lower field of that of the C?O moiety in its analogous compound. The results can be rationalized by consideration of tautomeric equilibria which lead to C_2v time-averaged symmetry.     

1H and 13C n.m.r. study of butatriene-bis-tricarbonyliron complexes. Assignment of geometric orientation by comparative J(CCCH) values

A number of substituted butatriene-bis-tricarbonyliron complexes have been studied by ¹³C and ¹H n.m.r. spectroscopy. Long range coupling values, J(CCCH), have confirmed chemical shift results that methyl and phenyl groups assume opposite orientations at the coordinated double bonds with the methyl group preferentially trans to carbon and the phenyl group preferentially trans to iron.     

Research in the azole series. 103. Synthesis and 13C NMR study of pyrazole-4-carboxaldehydes

Ten new pyrazoles have been prepared and their ¹³C nmr chemical shifts compared with those of twelve other pyrazoles, some of them prepared purposely for this study. The chemical shifts are discussed statistically assuming that they are additive. A formyl group in the position 4 of the pyrazole ring produces a large effect on carbon C₄ (SCS = 17.3 ppm) and medium effects on carbons C₃ (SCS = 1.9 ppm) and C₅ (SCS = 3.8 ppm). The azines derived from pyrazole-4-carboxaldehydes are of the E,E-configuration.     

Über bismut-haltige heterocyclen: I. Methylierte und phenylierte bismocane,intra- und intermolekulare koordinationserhöhung an bismut(III)

Methyl and phenyl oxadithia and trithiabismocanes have been synthesized from methyl or phenyl diethoxybismutane and the respective dithiol. The light-sensitive compounds have been investigated by mass, vibrational and ¹³C NMR spectra: ν(BiMe) 470–460, ν(BiS₂) 300–240 cm^?1; δ(¹³Me) ?12 ppm. The crystal structure of 5-phenyl-1,4,6,5-oxadithiabismocane has been determined (R = 0.056). The eight-membered ring has the chair-chair conformation. Besides three direct bonds (BiPh 225(2), BiS 256.0(2) and 260.2(3) pm) there are one transannular (Bi?O 297(1) and two intermolecular contacts (Bi ?S 344.0(3) and 350.9(3) pm) to bismuth in resulting a ψ-monocapped octahedral sphere of coordination. These polyhedra are connected in sharing two different edges, and the crystal structure exhibits double chains of molecules.     

17O NMR spectroscopy: Intramolecular hydrogen bonding in hydroxypyridine carboxy esters

Natural abundance ¹⁷O nmr chemical shift data for 8 aryl esters and 10 pyridine carboxy esters, including 6 ortho-hydroxy esters, recorded in acetomitrile at 75° are reported. The carbonyl group ¹⁷O nmr chemical shift data for methyl 2-, 3- and 4-pyridinecarboxylate are correlated with σ⁺ constants. The hydrogen bonding component (Δδ_HB) to the ester carbonyl ¹⁷O nmr chemical shift for the intramolecular hydrogen bonded ortho-hydroxy systems are 9.8 ppm, 13.6 ppm and 4.3 ppm for benzoates, 2-pyridinecarboxylates and 4-pyridinecarboxylates, respectively. The relationships of the ester Δδ_HB values to other hydrogen bond acceptor Δδ_HB values are discussed.     

Concerning some unusual trimethylsilyl proton chemical shifts

Proton and ¹³C NMR data are presented for six different compounds containing the fragment C₆H₅? C? CH₂SiMe₃. In a number of instances it was observed that, in the ¹H NMR spectrum, the SiMe₃ groups had a chemical shift significantly upfield from internal tetramethylsilane (δ = ?0·14 to ?0·36). These unexpected upfield chemical shifts of the SiMe₃ groups are suggested to result from the predominance, on a time averaged basis, of conformations which place the methyl groups attached to silicon in the face of an aromatic ring. The preference for such conformations is, in turn, the result of rotational preferences exhibited by the ‘flat’ aromatic ring. These results suggest that conformational analysis of systems containing a phenyl ring should take more explicit account of the fact that the preferred orientation of this phenyl ring can have a profound influence on the conformation adopted by the remainder of the molecule. In addition, the preferred conformation of the phenyl ring can have a significant effect upon the observed ¹H NMR chemical shifts, while the ¹³C chemical shifts are relatively insensitive to conformational factors and can be explained by well-known substituent effects previously delineated for all-carbon systems.     

1H NMR spectra. Part 29§: proton chemical shifts and couplings in esters—the conformational analysis of methyl γ‐butyrolactones

The ¹H NMR spectra of 35 cyclic and acyclic esters are analysed to give the ¹H chemical shifts and couplings. The substituent chemical shifts of the ester group were analysed using three‐bond (γ) effects for near protons and the electric field, magnetic anisotropy and steric effect of the ester group for more distant protons. The electric field is calculated from the partial atomic charges on the O?C = O atoms, and the asymmetric magnetic anisotropy of the carbonyl group acts at the midpoint of the C = O bond. The values of the anisotropies Δχ_parl and Δχ_perp were for the aliphatic esters 10.35 and ?18.84 and for the conjugated esters 7.33 and ?15.75 (×10^?6 ų/molecule). The oxygen steric coefficients found were 104.4 (aliphatic C = O), 45.5 (aromatic C = O) and 16.0 (C–O) (×10^?6 Å⁶/molecule). After parameterisation, the overall RMS error for the data set of 280 entries was 0.079 ppm. The strongly coupled ¹H NMR spectra of the 2‐methyl, 3‐methyl and 4‐methyl γ‐butyrolactones were analysed and the methyl conformational equilibrium obtained from the observed couplings. The observed versus calculated density functional theory (DFT) ΔG(ax‐eq) was 1.0 (1.01), 0.34 (0.54) and 0.65 (0.71) kcal/mol res. The shielding effect of a methyl cis to a proton in the five‐membered lactone rings is ?0.40 ±0.05 ppm and deshielding trans effect 0.12 ±0.05 ppm, which is common to both five and six membered rings. The cis/trans isomerism in the vinyl esters methyl acrylate, crotonate and methacrylate and methyl furoate was examined using the ¹H chemical shifts. The calculated shifts of both the cis and trans isomers were in good agreement with the observed shifts. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

1H and 199Hg NMR spectra of methylmercury(II) complexes. Effects of basicity and ortho substitution in pyridines(L) in complexes [MeHgL]NO3

Linear complexes [MeHgL]NO₃ (L = substituted pyridine) have been prepared and their ¹H and ¹⁹⁹Hg NMR spectra measured and compared with other complexes of this series reported previously. The coupling constant J(¹H?¹⁹⁹Hg) correlates directly with pKa and with the gas phase enthalpy of ionization [ΔG_i(g)] of LH⁺; with J(¹H?¹⁹⁹Hg) decreasing with increasing pKa or ΔG_i(g). The chemical shift, δ, for ¹⁹⁹Hg does not correlate with either pKa or ΔG_i(g). Complexes without substituents in the 2 position of pyridine have δ¹⁹⁹Hg ca. 80–100 ppm downfield from MeHgNO₃, those with one methyl group in the 2 position ca. 125–150 ppm, and those with methyl groups in the 2 and 6 position (or benzyl or 3′-methylpyridyl groups in the 2 position) ca. 160–200 ppm downfield from MeHgNO₃. The coupling constant J(¹H?¹⁹⁹Hg) is found to be more useful than δ¹⁹⁹Hg in determination of solution structures of MeHg(II) complexes of this type of ligand.     

Nitrogen-15 magnetic resonance spectroscopy XVI—natural-abundance spectra of aromatic amines

The ¹⁵N chemical shifts of aniline, the toluidines, xylidines, and several halogen and oxygen substituted anilines have been measured at the natural abundance level of ¹⁵N. Substituent parameters obtained by multiple regression analysis show that the methyl group induces comparable upfield shifts at the ortho and para positions (2·37 and 2·55 ppm/methyl, respectively) and a small (0·77 ppm/methyl) upfield shift at the meta position. The chemical shifts correlate reasonably well with ¹⁹F shifts of similarly substituted fluorobenzenes, with C-1 of the anilines themselves and with Hammett sigma values. While the shifts of C-methyl substituted anilines do not correlate with the methyl resonances of corresponding polymethylbenzenes, those of the halo- and alkoxyanilines show a reasonable parallelism with corresponding ¹³C-methyl shifts. The results are interpreted in terms of possible modes of transmission of electron density in an alternating and additive manner through the sigma framework.     

Isotopic effect on tautomeric behavior of 5‐(2,6‐disubstituted‐aryloxy)‐tetrazoles

Isotopic effect on tautomeric behaviors of the synthesized 5‐phenoxy‐ (1a), 5‐(2,6‐dimethylphenoxy)‐ (1b), 5‐(2,6‐diisopropylphenoxy)‐ (1c), 5‐(2,6‐dimethoxyphenoxy)‐ (1d) and 5‐(4‐methylphenoxy)‐tetrazole (1e) were investigated in DMSO‐d₆ by adding one drop of D₂O. Among 1a–e, 1a, 1d and 1e show small rotational barrier around C5? O1 and O1? C6 while in 1b and 1c there are distinguishable rotational barrier about that bonds. The ¹H NMR spectra of 1b and 1c show slightly different chemical shifts for two methyl and isopropyl groups on those phenyl ring, respectively, while the chemical shifts difference (Δδ) between two methyl and two isopropyl groups were enhanced by adding D₂O. The ¹³C NMR spectra of 1b show two overlapped singlets for methyl groups after adding D₂O. Representatively, the calculations of compound 1c were performed with GAUSSIAN‐03and the rotational barrier about C5? O1 and between isopropyl group and phenyl ring in 1c was calculated with B3LYP/6‐31G(d) basis set. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Identification of 4,5-unsymmetrically substituted l-amino- and 1-(N-arylacetylamino)-1,2,3-triazoles by 13C-NMR

¹³C nmr chemical shifts are used for the structural assignment of isomeric 1-amino-1,2,3-triazoles and 1-(N-arylacetylamino)-1,2,3-triazoles unsymmetrically substituted with phenyl, methyl or hydrogen in the 4,5-positions of the triazole ring. A signal at 11 ± 0.6 ppm indicates a 4-methyl triazole derivative, whereas a signal at 7.9 ± 1 ppm indicates a 5-methyl triazole. A signal at 120 ± 0.5 ppm (C-5) indicates a hydrogen in the 5-position (unsubstituted triazole).     

13C-NMR. Spectral Differences between Corresponding Methyl Esters,Phenyl Esters and 2-Substituted Chromones

The ¹³C-NMR. spectra of 2-substituted chromones ( 3 ) are compared with the data of the analogous methyl and phenyl esters ( 1 and 2 ). The chemical shift differences found are most prominent for the C-atoms in β-position to the ester carbonyl and chromone C(2), respectively. These shift differences are discussed in terms of conformational differences between the esters 1 and 2 and the analogous chromones 3 .
