We have studied the 1H NMR spectra of 2,2′-dimethyl-1-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)hydrazine at 300 and 500 MHz in seven liquid solvents, with a view to learning details of the internal conformational changes taking place as a function of temperature and of the solvent. These molecules in liquid solution occur as interconverting enantiomorphic pairs (atropisomers). Advanced techniques for obtaining the correct activation energies and pseudo-thermodynamic parameters have been utilized, and these parameters are listed and discussed. Our results point to a transformation between the pair of atropisomers that is not quite as complicated as one might have encountered in that the solvent does not affect ΔG‡ in any major fashion. Molecular orbital calculations clarified some of the chemical shifts observed for both 1H and 13C. One goal of this study was to enable a detailed comparison with similar results available for 2,2′-diphenyl-1-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)hydrazine.Key words: dynamic NMR, dimethylpicrylhydrazine, hindered rotation, atropisomers, activation parameters.

The 1H NMR spectra of the charge-transfer complex of 1-ethyl-4-methoxycarbonylpyridinium iodide have been recorded in various dipolar aprotic solvents. An attempt is made to interpret the chemical shifts in terms of Buckingham's reaction field equation for spherical cavities. A linear dependence has been found between the δ(2,6) values and the square of dielectric function for a spherical cavity, which confirms the validity of the Buckingham equation for this class of compounds.

Abstract The high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of 35 carbamate pesticides and a major metabolite of one pesticide are discussed. The chemical shifts and coupling constants are tabulated and reproductions of the more complex or unusual spectra are included. A concentration and solvent dependence of both the NH-proton and the NCH3-proton resonances of an N-monosubstituted carbamate is discussed. Hindered rotation is observed in the N,N-dimethylcarbamates, the thiolcarbamates and the dithiocarbamates, but not in the N-methylcarbamates.

During a reinvestigation of the 13C NMR spectra of 1-fluoronaphthalene (1) and of 2-fluoronaphthalene (2) at 20 and 25.16 MHz, uncertainties that existed in the literature about signal assignments for 1 could be cleared. In the spectral analyses for 2 given so far, five out of ten signals were incorrectly assigned. The corrected assignment is supported by extensive 13C{1H} double resonance experiments, by recording of proton-coupled 13C and 13C{19F} spectra and by off-resonance 13C{1H} noise-decoupling. The results show a strong + M-effect of the fluorine substituents on 13C chemical shifts similar to the effects of OH and OCH3 groups. 1H NMR spectra of 1 and 2 could be partially assigned by decoupling of the 19F resonances and by iterative analysis.

Chemical shifts of signals due to methyl groups in position 10β (in CDCl3) and 4α and 4β (in C6D6) in 1H NMR spectra of pentacyclic triterpene 3-oxo derivatives (V, VIII, IX, and XII) are suitable for estimation of chair-boat equilibrium in the ring A. Benzene and lanthanide induced shifts of 4α and 4β-methyl protons were also used for this purpose. The results obtained with 2α-methyl-3-ketones (III, X) and 2β-methyl-3-ketones (IV, XI) as the respective chair and boat models agree well with those derived from other physical data (about 40% boat). The same methods were applied to 4,4-dimethylsteroid 3-ketones XV-XVII.

A group of 30 thiobenzanilides active against Mycobacterium kansasii have been synthesized and their 1H NMR and UV spectra and RM values (TLC on silica gel impregnated with methylsilicone oil) have been measured. From the correlation between the chemical shifts of the thioamide proton in the 1H NMR spectra and the Hammett constants it can be concluded that the substituents in both aromatic rings uniformly affect the electron density of the thioamide group. The antimycobacterial activity is probably connected with local molecular parameters and can be considered to be approximately additive with respect to both parts of the molecule.

The 1H NMR spectra of 1,6-anhydro-β-D-hexopyranoses and their triacetates, measured in hexadeuteriodimethyl sulfoxide or deuteriochloroform, confirmed the existence of these compounds in 1C4(D) conformations, with the pyranose ring partly planarized in dependence on the configuration of the substituents in positions C(2), C(3) and C(4). The effects of the substituents on the chemical shifts and the adjusted relationship for the dependence of vicinal coupling constants on the torsion angle are discussed in detail from the point of view of the determination of the configuration and the conformation of 1,6-anhydro-β-D-hexopyranoses and their derivatives. The 1H NMR spectra of triacetates were also measured in the presence of the lanthanide shift reagent, tris(1,1,1,2,2,3,3-heptafluoro-7,7-dimethyl-4,6-octanedione) europium (III) [Eu.(FOD)3].

AbstractHigh-resolution gas phase measurements of 1H NMR spectra at 400 MHz and atmospheric pressure of seven small hydrocarbons are presented. The developed new method and the experimental set-up are described. Ab initio GIAO MO calculations of 1H and 13C NMR absolute shieldings on the HF, MP2 and B3LYP levels using 25 standard gaussian basis sets are reported for these hydrocarbons, based on experimental re distances. The measured gas phase 1H chemical shifts have been converted to an absolute σ0 shielding scale by use of the literature shielding of methane. These and gas phase 13C literature values have been transferred with literature ZPV data to estimated σeexp shieldings which are used to evaluate the basis set dependence of the calculated σe shieldings utilizing linear least squares regressions. Exponential extrapolations of Dunning basis set calculations allow the determination of basis set limits for 1H and 13C shieldings. 1H and 13C chemical shifts have been derived from the HF calculated shieldings with shieldings of TMS which has been geometry optimized and GIAO calculated in each basis. Standard deviations (esd) as low as 0.09 ppm for 1H and 0.76 ppm for 13C calculations have been obtained.The statistically best basis set for simultaneous calculation of 1H and 13C absolute shieldings or relative shifts is 6-311G* within the HF and B3LYP methods. Aiming for highest accuracy and precision, 1H and 13C have to be treated separately. In this case, best results are obtained using MP2/6-311G** or higher for 1H shieldings and MP2/cc-pVTZ for 13C shieldings.

1H nmr, 1H,1H and 1H,13C COSY, and 2D J-resolved spectra of multiflorine (1) and 13α-hydroxymultiflorine (2) in CDCl3 were taken. Some erroneously determined chemical shifts in 1 were corrected and for the first time signals in 2 were assigned. Most of the coupling constants in 1 and 2 were established. A coupling constant of H7–H17β and chemical shifts for H17β, C14, and C8 were used to define the conformational equilibrium of boat or chair forms in the C rings, in 1 and 2 in solution. The results obtained confirm the previous findings based on chemical shifts of C12: ca. 75 and 70% of the "boat" conformer in 1 and 2, respectively, at room temperature. Of all the criteria used, the H7–H17β coupling constant seems to be least sensitive to the influence of substituents at rings A and D. From the Haasnoot equation, torsion angles of HCCH in regions of molecular geometry featuring low sensitivity to conformational changes were calculated. The hydroxyl group at position 13α has a slight influence on the geometry of ring D.
