Abstract: | The structures of some 2-substituted indan-1,3-diones are investigated in the gas phase and solution using quantum chemical calculations and spectral (NMR, IR, and UV) measurements. The influence of the substituent at the 2-position on the tautomeric equilibrium of 2-substituted indan-1,3-diones in solvents with different polarity is evaluated. It is shown that the equilibrium in 2-formyl-indan-1,3-dione and 2-acetyl-indan-1,3-dione is shifted to the 2-hydroxyalkylidene-indan-1,3-dione tautomer, while 2-carboxyamide-indan-1,3-dione exists as a mixture of two tautomers, 2-(hydroxyaminomethylidene)-indan-1,3-dione and 2-carboamide-1-hydroxy-3-oxo-indan, with extremely fast proton transfer between them. The situation for 2-carboxy-indan-1,3-dione is quite different - on the basis of the analysis of the obtained results, the possible existence of an anionic form of 2-carboxy-indan-1,3-dione in solution can be inferred. |
