ortho-Substituent effects inN-arylacetamides. NMR and molecular mechanics investigation

1995

1H, 13C, 15N and 17O NMR spectra of N-phenylacetamide (acetanilide) and 21 ortho-substituted acetanilides were measured and assigned. The observed NMR parameters are related to the Hammett substituent parameters and conformational characteristics of the acetamido moiety estimated by molecular mechanics calculations. Significant relationships were found for the 13C NMR chemical shifts of C-5 (para to substituent) and the direct spin–spin coupling constant, 1J(C, H), of C-3 (ortho to substituent) with Hammett substituent parameters. For 15N NMR chemical shifts of the amido nitrogen, no general correlation with the Hammett substituent parameters was found. The interactions between functionalit…

Multinuclear magnetic resonance and x-ray diffraction studies of aminonitropyridines

1992

The 15N NMR spectra for 21 aminonitropyridines were measured and their chemical shifts assigned. The 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts and spin–spin coupling constants were also determined for 16 compounds of this series. In order to relate the structural properties of nitramino groups and their 15N NMR chemical shifts in 2- and 4-nitramino-3-nitropyridines, which differ remarkably from all other amino groups studied, low-temperature 1H NMR, 17O NMR, comparative INEPT and IR spectroscopic studies were carried out. In addition, the x-ray crystal structure of 2-nitramino-3-nitropyridine was determined. Comparative spectroscopic studies showed that the nitramino derivatives exhibit different char…

1H,13C and17O NMR study of substituted nitropyridines

1991

1H, 13C and 17O NMR spectra for 22 substituted nitropyridines were measured and their 1H NMR spectra were analysed. The most significant variations in the NMR parameters are found for isomeric hydroxy derivatives, owing to the possibility of keto–enol tautomerism. The prevalence of the keto form is observed in 2- and 4-hydroxy derivatives, while the 3-hydroxy derivative exists in its enol form. Among the three nuclei studied, 17O seems to be the best nucleus for probing the keto–enol tautomerism. No correlation is observed between the torsion angle of the nitro group and its 17O NMR chemical shift. Molecular mechanics calculations were performed to clarify the torsional energetics of the ni…

ChemInform Abstract: The Tautomerism of Nitraminopyridines

2010

1H, 13C and 15N NMR data for nitraminopyridines are discussed in terms of tautomeric equilibria in these compounds. The favoured tautomer is determined mainly from 15N NMR spectroscopy. The chemical shift of the nitrogen atom of the nitro group in nitraminopyridines and N-nitroanilines which cannot tautomerize vary from 28·0 to 35·4 ppm in DMSO solution. 3-Nitraminopyridine and 2-nitramino-3- and -5-nitropyridines behave similarly. In the 15N NMR spectra of nitrimino-1-methyldihydropyridines, used as models, an upfield shift of that atom, different from that observed for 2-nitraminopyridine, indicates the significance of the nitrimino tautomer. In contrast, a downfield shift of the ring nit…

Nitramino, NRNO2 (R = H, CH3), as a substituent.13C and15N NMR spectroscopic study of nitraminobenzenes and -pyridines

1993

In order to clarify the special properties of the aryl-bound nitramino substituent NRNO 2 (R=H, CH 3 ), 13 C and 15 N NMR spectra of six nitraminobenzenes and nine nitraminopyridines were measured in DMSO-d 6 and their chemical shifts assigned. 1 H NMr chemical shifts and spin-spin coupling constants of all the compounds were also determined. In contrast to the behaviour of nitropyridines or -benzenes studied previously, most of the present compounds gave very broad 17 O NMR lines even at elevated temperatures and their 17 O NMR data were not useful for any reliable conclusions
