Low temperature (173 K) 13C spectra of acetylcyclohexane, 1-acetyl-1-methylcyclohexane, and 5-acetyl-5-methyl-1,3-dioxane are reported. Data permit the first direct measurement of −ΔG0 for the acetyl group bonded to cyclohexane. The value obtained, 1.02 ± 0.05 kcal/mol in CS2–CD2Cl2 solution, is considerably lower than that determined by equilibration methods. Factors contributing to observed axial–equatorial carbonyl carbon chemical shift differences for substituted cyclohexanes and 1,3-dioxanes are discussed.

The carbon chemical shift tensors of the carbonyl and thiocarbonyl groups of acetamide, thioacetamide, thioacetanilide, 4′-methoxyacetanilide, and 4′-methoxythioacetanilide have been experimentally determined using dipolar – chemical shift solid-state 13C NMR spectroscopy. The magnitudes of the three principal components of the carbon chemical shift tensors are found to exhibit marked variations between the carbonyl and thiocarbonyl functionalities. However, in contrast to the conclusions of an earlier comparative investigation involving benzophenone and thiobenzophenone, the orientations of the principal axis systems of these chemical shift tensors are found to be similar. These experimental results represent the first complete characterizations of the carbon chemical shift tensor in organic thiocarbonyls. The results of our ab initio GIAO and LORG calculations of carbon chemical shielding tensors in formaldehyde, thioformaldehyde, formamide, and thioformamide as well as in acetamide and thioacetamide are in qualitative agreement with experiment. The findings of the present investigation provide conclusive evidence that the well-known isotropic deshielding of the carbon nucleus in the C=S group relative to C=O is primarily attributable to the decreased energy associated with the σ ↔ π* excitation within the thiocarbonyl fragment. This result is in contrast with the conventional interpretation that the deshielding originates from a red shift in the C=S HOMO–UMO n → π* transition. Keywords: chemical shift tensors, solid-state 13C NMR, carbonyls, thiocarbonyls, ab initio calculations.

Phosphorus-31 NMR powder spectra and high resolution MAS spectra have been obtained for a number of solid phosphines under conditions of high-power proton decoupling and cross-polarization. The principal components of the 31P chemical shift tensor obtained from static powder spectra or slow MAS spectra are discussed in terms of the known structures of many of the phosphines. The CP/MAS 31PNMR spectra are used to determine the number of crystallographically nonequivalent molecules in the unit cell. The NMR results are consistent with data available from X-ray diffraction. In one case there is evidence of polymorphism. Keywords: 31P NMR of solid phosphines, principal components of 31P chemical shift tensors, crystallographic nonequivalence from 31P CP/MAS NMR.
