Abstract The 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts for six toxaphene congeners: 2-exo,3-endo,6-exo,8,9,10-hexachloro- (1), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,9,9,10,10-heptachloro- (2), 2-exo,3-endo,6-exo,8,9,10,10-heptachloro- (3), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,6-endo,8,9,10-heptachloro- (4), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,6-endo,8,9,9,10-octachlorobornane (5) and 2,5-endo,6-exo,8,9,9,10,10-octachloro-2-bornene (6) are reported. Their chemical shift assignments have been obtained by means of Pulsed Field Gradient (PFG) Double Quantum Filtered (DQF) 1H,1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), PFG 1H,13C Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence (HMQC) and PFG 1H,13C Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation (HMBC) experiments. A single crystal…

1H, 13C, 15N NMR, ESI mass spectral and single crystal X-ray structural characterization of three spiro[pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindoles]

2006

Abstract Three spiro[pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindoles], 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-phenyl-spiro[3H-indole-3,3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine]-2′-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1), 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-nitro-2′-phenyl-spiro[3H-indole-3, 3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine] (2) and 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-nitro-2′-(4″-chlorophenyl)-spiro[3H-indole-3,3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine] (3) have been synthesized and their 1H, 13C and 15N spectra assigned. The chemical shift assignments are based on Pulsed Field Gradient (PFG) Double Quantum Filter (DQF) 1H, 1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), PFG 1H, 13C Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence (HMQC) and PFG 1H,X (X = 13C and 15N) Heteronuc…

A computationally feasible quantum chemical model for 13C NMR chemical shifts of PCB-derived carboxylic acids.

2004

Two quantum chemical models have been derived for the prediction of 13C NMR chemical shifts of novel PCB acids obtained from PCBs by catalytic carbonylation. 13C isotropic shielding constants were calculated employing the GIAO (gauge-independent atomic orbital) method with density functional theory (DFT). The best results were obtained by cluster calculations, which took the solvent effects into account properly. In this approach, a solvent molecule (acetone) was attached by a hydrogen bond to every hydrogen atom present in a PCB acid, and the geometry of the molecular cluster was optimized employing the AM1 method. For 158 chemical shifts, the cross-validated standard error was 2.8 ppm and…

Evaluation of entropies of fusion of polychlorinated naphthalenes by model congeners: A DSC study

2006

Abstract Thirteen congeners of polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCN) were synthesized and studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Melting points (Tm) were obtained for all thirteen, and enthalpies of fusion (ΔHf) were obtained for nine congeners. Melting points of other PCNs, except for five, were found in literature. In addition, experimental ΔHf values determined by DSC were found only for 1- and 2-mono-chloronaphthalenes in the literature. The missing or uncertain values of the eight melting points and 64 enthalpies of fusion were estimated by multiple linear regressions using a set of thirteen molecular descriptors as candidates for independent variables. The stepwise model of …

2-exo,5-endo,8,8,10-Pentachlorobornane

2008

The title compound, C(10)H(13)Cl(5), is a polychlorinated monoterpene and a Toxaphene congener. This compound is also the only penta-chlorinated derivative of camphene formed via ionic chlorination. Previously, the title compound was thought to be 2-exo,5-endo,9,9,10-penta-chloro-bornane, but X-ray structural analysis showed it to have a different structure and rather to be 2-exo,5-endo,8,8,10-penta-chloro-bornane. The title compound shows static disorder and almost half the molecule was divided in two partitions with an occupancy ratio of 0.575 (major) to 0.425 (minor). The repulsive close contacts of Cl atoms could possibly be the cause for this disorder.

1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectral characterization of twenty-seven 1,2-diaryl-(4E)-arylidene-2-imidazolin-5-ones.

2006

1H, 13C and 15N NMR chemical shifts and couplings nJ(H,C) in DMSO-d6 at 30 °C have been determined for 1,2-diaryl-(4E)-arylidene-2-imidazolin-5-one derivatives 1–27. Their chemical shift assignments are based on PFG DQF 1H,1H COSY, PFG 1H,13C HMQC as well as PFG 1H,13C and 1H,15N HMBC experiments. For compounds 1–10 including aryl fluorine substituent(s) also the couplings nJ(F,C) (n = 1 − 4) are reported. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A new potential toxaphene congener: synthesis, GC/EI-MS study, crystal structure, NMR analysis, and ab initio calculations of 3-endo,5-endo-dichloro-…

2001

Abstract A new potential toxaphene congener 3- endo ,5- endo -dichloro-7,7-bis-chloromethyl-4-dichloromethyl-tricyclo[2.2.1.0 2,6 ]heptane 2 has been isolated from reaction mixture obtained by the chlorination of 2- exo ,10,10-trichlorobornane 1 . The X-ray structural analysis of 2 revealed an unusual tricyclic structure, where the two chlorine atoms occupying endo -positions are in close spatial proximity with each other and near to the neighbouring CHCl 2 group. Further, it revealed that the symmetry of the molecule is distorted. The 1 H and 13 C NMR spectra of 2 have been assigned by means of 1 H, 1 H d ouble- q uantum f iltered co rrelation s pectroscop y (DQF COSY), PFG 1 H, 13 C HMQC …
