The configuration of the benzylic protons responsible for each absorption in the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of 1,11-dimethyl-5,7-dihydrodibenz(c,e)thiepin and its S-oxide and S-dioxide have been determined by nuclear Overhauser experiments. Successful application of the method was achieved by using partially deuterated derivatives for the purpose of removing undesirable relaxation mechanisms between protons. Triple irradiation of doublets was also usefully employed. The sulfoxide assignments arrived at herein reverse the tentative assignments put forth by us (1). It is noteworthy that all experiments on the sulfoxide failed when CDCl3 was used as solvent. In DMSO normal nuclear Overhauser effects were seen, presumably since sulfoxide dimers are not formed in this solvent. The sulfonium perchlorate derivative of the thiepin was also synthesized. The remarkable similarity of its n.m.r. spectrum to that of the sulfoxide is interpreted as evidence that the effect of the sulfoxide group on the shifts of neighboring protons is due primarily to the "lone pair" on sulfur.

The 1Hmr spectra of 20 catechin derivatives substituted at C-6/C-8 by bromine and/or hydrogen and at oxygen by methyl, acetyl, and/or hydrogen have been analyzed in deuterated acetone, acetonitrile, and chloroform. Because of its dependence on the nature of the solvent and of the oxygen substituent, the difference between H-6 and H-8 chemical shifts has been found to be an unreliable criterion for the distinction between 8-bromo and 6-bromo isomers. In methylated catechins, double irradiation of H-8 and H-6 enhances one (MeO-7) and two (MeO-5 and MeO-7) methoxy signals, respectively, via the nuclear Overhauser effect. This permits unambiguous assignment of chemical shifts to all ring A protons. The H-6 and H-8 resonance frequencies of catechin have been determined by decoupling of the OH-5 and OH-7 protons.

2-Fluoro-5-nitrobenzonitrile, an analogue of 1-fluoro-2,4- dinitrobenzene, in which the 2-nitro group has been replaced by a cyano group, has been prepared and made to react with several amines, amino acids, and NH-heteroaromatic compounds. The proton magnetic resonance spectra of some of the resultant N-(2-cyano-4-nitrophenyl) derivatives were compared with the spectra of the corresponding N-(2,4- dinitrophenyl) derivatives and furnish further evidence that the ortho nitro group of the latter derivatives is rotated out of the plane of the aromatic nucleus.

Abstract The qualitative analysis of the aromatic bromination products of the 6 isomeric dimethoxyamphetamines and their hydrochloride or hydrobromide salts is described. Their ultraviolet, mass, and proton magnetic resonance spectra are not sufficiently different for distinction but infrared spectra allow a positive identification to be made and reference spectra are provided for the bromination products of 2,4-, 2,5-, 2,6-, 4,5-, and 3,5-dimethoxyamphetamines. The application of gas-liquid and thin layer chromatography for the analysis of these products is discussed. The bromination of 2,3-dimethoxyamphetamine consistently gave mixtures which could not be separated satisfactorily; spectra are included for completeness of the comparison of products.
