9-Isothiocyanatoacridines VIII - XIV were prepared from the corresponding 9-chloroacridines I - VII. The IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and fluorescence spectra of the products are given. The 13C NMR chemical shifts of the C-9 ipso carbon atom exhibit a trend that is in accord with the Hammett constants of substituents bonded to the C-2 carbon. Effect of these substituents on the chemical shift of C-NCS was only small. The dependence of hydrolysis of isothiocyanates VIII - XIV on pH of the medium was studied. It was found that 9-isothiocyanatoacridines do not undergo hydrolysis at pH 7 - 10. The relative fluorescence intensities (F/F0) of compounds VIII - XIV at pH 7.4 have been determined in comparison with that of 9-aminoacridine. No direct dependence between the fluorescence intensity and the polar character of substituents has been found.

Five series of a novel class of 4-acyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines have been synthesized and characterized: the 4-acetyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines [series 1]; the 4-cyclohexylcarbonyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines [series 2]; the 4-benzoyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines [series 3]; the benzyl 4-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1-piperazinecarboxylates [series 4]; and the t-butyl 4-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1-piperazinecarboxylates [series 5]. The compounds were synthesized by diazotization of a primary aromatic amine and subsequent coupling to an appropriate secondary amine: 1-acetylpiperazine [series 1]; 1-(cyclohexylcarbonyl)-piperaizine [series 2]; 1-benzoylpiperazine [series 3]; benzyl 1-piperazinecarboxylate [series 4]; and t-butyl piperazine-1-carboxylate (1-BOC-piperazine) [series 5]. The compounds of series 1–5 were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, high-resolution MS and IR spectroscopy. The model compounds 1,4-di[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]piperazines, and ethyl 4-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1-piperazinecarboxylates were used to facilitate the assignment of the chemical shifts specific to the piperazine ring carbons. HSQC spectra of select compounds established the correlation between proton and carbon resonance signals.

Abstract The 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic properties of a series of furo[2′,3′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,2,4]triazin-8(7H)-ones and -thiones were investigated. The influence of various electron donating as well as electron withdrawing substituents at C-5 or N-7 on 1H NMR chemical shifts as well as 13C chemical shifts at C8 were observed. The 5-chloromethyl group had a little influence on the chemical shift of H-7 proton and the 8-thione group causes deshielding of H-7 as well as H-5 protons in comparison with the C-8 carbonyl group.

Carbon-13 nmr chemical shifts of a number of E-silyl-alkenes containing the silyl substituent at an sp2 carbon atom are presented. Assignments of the chemical shifts have been made by noting systematic variations in the spectra with changes in substituents and by comparison of the chemical shifts to those of the corresponding unsubstituted alkenes. The substituent effects observed were explained on the basis of the π-acceptor ability of the silyl substituents and the structure of the molecules. Comparing the 13C nmr spectra of the E-silyl-alkenes and those of the corresponding unsubstituted alkenes, differential chemical shifts have been obtained which can be used as empirical substituent parameters for the prediction of the 13C nmr spectra of other E-silyl-alkenes not yet studied. It was also demonstrated that 13C nmr spectroscopy can be used without resorting to special techniques (gated decoupling and the addition of paramagnetics) as an alternative method to the 1H nmr for the quantitative analysis of mixtures of regio-isomer E-silyl-alkenes.

A program using13C-NMR data was developed to improve GC/MS identifications of chemical constituents in essential oils. Compiled data uses 2290 and 2370 chemical shifts of 229 monoterpenes and 158 sesquiterpenes, respectively, stored into two reference libraries. Each carbon atom was codified using rules that correlates its chemical shift with structural features of the carbon hybridization and vicinity.

A detailed nuclear magnetic resonance study of 4,6-dinitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole N-oxide (DNBF), which includes a 2D INADEQUATE analysis and experiments with samples 15N-labelled at the NO2 groups, is described. The results lead to an unambiguous assignment of the carbon and proton chemical shifts in various solvents. Some 1H and 13C data pertaining to 4,6-dinitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DNBZ), the deoxygenated analog of DNBF, are also reported, allowing the influence of the N-oxide group on the proton and carbon chemical shifts to be discussed. It is shown that all of the 1H nmr evidence so far reported for the characterization of DNBF σ adducts as arising from nucleophilic addition to the 7-position, i.e., as structure 2a, has no significance. That complexation actually occurs at this position is, however, convincingly demonstrated by 15N data. These also allow us to establish that this process is both kinetically and thermodynamically favored. Keywords: nitrobenzofuroxans, Meisenheimer complexes, 13C nmr of benzofuroxans, 2,1,3-benzoxadiazole N-oxides, nitrobenzofuroxan σ-adducts.

The 13C nmr spectra of 14 β-cyclopropylidenic alcohols 1 have been determined:[Formula: see text]All the chemical shifts were assigned and the substituent effects are discussed as a function of molecular conformation. The stereochemistry of two diastereoisomers of alcohols 1e (R1 = R3 = H; R2 = R4 = CH3) and 1k (R3 = H; R1 = R2 = R4 = CH3) was established from ir spectroscopy and 1H nmr results.The 13C nmr spectra of products arising from hydrolysis of 3-cyclopropylidene propanol 1a and 4-cyclopropylidene 2-butanol 1b tosylates have been also recorded. The analysis of these data enables us to establish unambiguously the structure and the stereochemistry of the hydrolysis products.

Abstract A small library of 6-substituted syringyl model compounds with aliphatic, carboxylic, phenylic, benzylic alcohols and brominated substituents were prepared. The influence of the substituents on the chemical shifts of the compounds was analyzed. All of model compounds showed a characteristic increase in the 13C NMR chemical shift of the methoxy group vicinal to the substitution. This 13C NMR peak and its corresponding correlation peak in HSQC could potentially be used to identify 6-condensation in syringylic lignin samples.

Maillard reaction is a nonenzymatic reaction between reducing sugars and free amino acid moieties, which is known as one of the most important modifications in food science. It is essential to characterize the structure of Amadori rearrangement products (ARPs) formed in the early stage of Maillard reaction. In the present study, the Nα-acetyl-lysine-glucose model had been successfully set up to produce ARP, Nα-acetyl-lysine-glucose. After HPLC purification, ARP had been identified by ESI-MS with intense [M+H]+ ion at 351 m/z and the purity of ARP was confirmed to be over 90% by the relative intensity of [M+H]+ ion. Further structural characterization of the ARP was accomplished by using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, including 1D 1H NMR and 13C NMR, the distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT-135) and 2D 1H-1H and 13C-1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY) and 2D nuclear overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY). The complexity of 1D 1H NMR and 13C NMR was observed due to the presence of isomers in glucose moiety of ARP. However, DEPT-135 and 2D NMR techniques provided more structural information to assign the 1H and 13C resonances of ARP. 2D NOESY had successfully confirmed the glycosylated site between 10-N in Nα-acetyl-lysine and 7′-C in glucose.

Here we show the facile synthesis of 132-173-bacteriochlorophyllone a (12), with a distinct seven-membered exocyclic F-ring formed by 132-173-cyclization of bacteriopheophorbide a(16). This is the latest reported bacteriochlorin with such an exocyclic F-ring since 1975 (132-173 cyclobacteriopheophorbide a-enol, 11), and is an analog of previously described natural exocyclic F-ring-containing porphyrins (1–4) and chlorins (5–10). The structure of 12 was confirmed using a combination of 1D 1 H NMR, 2D COSY 1 H NMR, Jmod 13 C NMR and HRMS analysis. The biological activity of 12 was explored, and we found that this compound does not possess strong antioxidant activity like its natural product counterparts, but is a capable photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy.
