Dual Substituent Parameter Modeling of Theoretical, NMR and IR Spectral Data of 5-Substituted Indole-2,3-diones

Correlations of AM1 and PM3 theoretical data, 13C-NMR substituent chemical shifts (13C-SCS) and IR carbonyl group wave numbers [ν(C3â•ÂO)] were studied using dual substituent parameter (DSP) models for 5-substituted indole-2,3-diones. For the C7 atom a reverse substituent effect attributed to extended À-polarization was observed. On the other hand, the DSP approaches for the C3 atom showed normal substituent effects with some contribution of reverse effect supported strongly by 13C-SCS correlations. In the ν(C3â•ÂO) and p(C3â•ÂO) DSP correlations the field effect contribution predominates over the resonance effect, which justifies the using of earlier suggested vibrational cou…

Reactions of Carbonyl Compounds in Basic Solutions. Part 351: The Alkaline Hydrolysis and Reactivity – Structure – Spectra Correlations of (Z)-4-(Substituted Benzylidene)-2-Phenyl-4H-Oxazol-5-Ones

The kinetics of the alkaline hydrolysis and the configuration, conformation and electronic structure were studied using IR, NMR spectroscopy, X-ray analysis and AM1 theoretical calculations for a series of (Z)-4-(substituted benzylidene)-2-phenyl-4H-oxazol-5-ones (1) and compared with analogous results reported for (E)-4-benzylidene-2-phenyl-4H-furan-5-ones (5) and related compounds.

17O NMR chemical shifts of 3-(substituted methylene)-(Z)-1(3H)-isobenzofuranones: correlations with IR stretching wavenumbers and AM1 charges

A correlative IR, MS, 1H, 13C and 15N NMR and theoretical study of 4-arylthiazol-2(3H)-onesElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: NMR data, including graphs; Cartesian coordinates for 3a and 4. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/p2/b1/b106322g/

Sixteen 4-arylthiazol-2(3H)-ones (3) were synthesised by cyclisation of α-thiocyanatoacetophenones (1) in acid solution. They appear to prefer greatly the oxo tautomeric forms. In CCl4 solution an equilibrium between the free CO bond and a “dimeric” hydrogen-bonded form exists in which the latter predominates. Several IR and NMR (1H, 13C and 15N) spectral properties are shown to correlate with Hammett σ-values and/or atomic Mulliken charges and bond orders, the latter being estimated by PM3 or AM1 semiempirical methods. The electron-impact mass spectra were also recorded and the fragmentation mechanisms interpreted in terms of the energetics of the ionic species. In addition, the geometric …
