description

Trans-Cinnamaldehydes (CAs) or o-, m- and p-X-(E)-3-phenylpropenals; (X = Cl or Br) were synthesized and their 1H, 13C and 17O NMR spectra were measured, assigned and analysed. The long-range benzylic couplings are discussed in terms of the conformational characteristics of the related styrene systems. The 1H, 13C and 17O NMR substituent chemical shifts of the CA derivatives were compared with those of styrene and explained by the π-electron delocalization in the conjugated CCCO bond system of CA.
