A CNDO/2 study on the additivity and the nature of the non-additivity of the substituent effects on13C NMR shifts in chlorobenzenes and chlorophenols
1980
The general correlation between the electron densities and the 13C NMR chemical shifts is found to be quite poor in the cases discussed. The non-additivities of the substituent effects on the chemical shifts and the CNDO/2 electron densities correlate only weakly. However, when the electron densities are made specific to different types of atomic orbitals, the s electrons have a pronounced effect in all the models tested. This is explained by an indirect effect on the 〈1/r3〉 term of the p electrons. Good correlations are found between the sums of the chemical shifts and the corresponding sums of the substituent charge excesses. The different behaviour of OH and Cl substituents in the additi…
Molecular aspects of carcinogenesis. Part B
1989
Nitrogen mustards represent a major group of alkylating agents that are used in the chemotherapy of cancer. It is commonly accepted that they exert their cytotoxic effects by their ability to produce interstrand crosslinks in DNA. The main target site of the two identical alkylating moieties is the N-7 position of guanine. By a Maxam-Gilbert-type reaction it is possible to identify "hot spots" for alkylation by nitrogen mustards. Analysis of data obtained reveal the importance of the DNA context for efficient alkylation. For most of~ the compounds the highest reactivity is observed ila regions of G clusters, while in the neighbourhood of cytosine residues alkylation is reduced. As a consequ…
Substituent effect of nitro group on aromaticity of carbazole rings
2014
The molecular geometries of carbazole and its 17 nitro derivatives were optimized at the B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,2p) level of theory. The harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity and nucleus-independent chemical shift descriptors of π-electron delocalization were calculated to estimate the aromaticity of the carbazole five- and six-membered rings. The biggest changes in the value of both descriptors were observed for the pyrrole ring. The nitro group attached to 3 and/or 6 positions of the carbazole ring system exerts only a slight influence on the benzene ring aromaticity.
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.
Effect of electron-withdrawing substituents on the electrophilicity of carbonyl carbons
2005
Indexación: Scopus The substituent effects on the carbonyl carbon atom for a series of twelve substituted phenyl acetates have been rationalized using a global electrophilicity index. This index is linearly correlated with the experimental reaction rate coefficients. We found that, in contrast to the proposed interpretation based on experimental 13C NMR chemical shifts and ground state destabilization calculations, the electrophilicity of carbonyl compounds increases due to the effect promoted by electron-withdrawing groups in these systems. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0040402004018046?via%3Dihub
Halogen effect on structure and 13 C NMR chemical shift of 3,6-disubstituted-N -alkyl carbazoles
2013
Structures of selected 3,6-dihalogeno-N-alkyl carbazole derivatives were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,2pd) level of theory, and their 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) isotropic shieldings were predicted using density functional theory (DFT). The model compounds contained 9H, N-methyl and N-ethyl derivatives. The relativistic effect of Br and I atoms on nuclear shieldings was modeled using the spin–orbit zeroth-order regular approximation (ZORA) method. Significant heavy atom shielding effects for the carbon atom directly bonded with Br and I were observed (~−10 and ~−30 ppm while the other carbon shifts were practically unaffected). The decreasing electronegativity of the haloge…
E-2-Benzylidenebenzocycloalkanones. IV. Studies on transmission of substituent effects on 13C NMR chemical shifts of E-2-(X-benzylidene)-1-tetralones…
2005
Abstract Single substituent parameter (SSP) and dual substituent parameter (DSP) analyses were applied to study the transmission of substituent effects on selected 13C NMR chemical shifts of the cyclic chalcone analogues, E-2-(4′-X-benzylidene)-1-tetralones (2) and E-2-(4′-X-benzylidene)-1-benzosuberones (3). In order to study how the geometry of the cyclic chalcone analogues affects the transmission of substituent effects similar investigations with the respective chalcones (4) were also performed. The results obtained earlier with the five-membered analogue E-2-(4′-X-benzylidene)-1-indanones (1) were also involved in the comparisons. Geometry optimization of the unsubstituted 1a, 2a, 3a a…
The effect of the fused-ring substituent on anthracene chalcones: crystal structural and DFT studies of 1-(anthracen-9-yl)-3-(naphthalen-2-yl)prop-2-…
2018
Two new anthracene chalcones, namely 1-(anthracen-9-yl)-3-(naphthalen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one and 1-(anthracen-9-yl)-3-(pyren-1-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, have been successfully synthesized and the effect of the different fused ring substituent system attached to the anthracene chalcone derivative investigated. These compounds show a very narrow band gap due to the large p-conjugated systems, making them promising candidates as optoelectronic materials. Hirshfeld surface analysis has been carried out to show the contribution of intermolecular contacts and weak interactions to supramolecular stabilization.
13C NMR study on the methoxy carbon chemical shifts in chloro-substituted anisoles and guaiacols
1983
The 13C NMR chemical shifts of methoxy carbons in chlorinated anisoles and guaiacols have been measured for acetone-d6 solutions. Multiple linear regression analysis, and also ‘simple sum rule’ calculations, have been used to estimate the effects of the chlorine atoms (the position and degree of substitution) on the chemical shifts. The most important effects have shown to be due to the chlorine atoms adjacent to the methoxy and hydroxy substituents. For chlorinated guaiacols, the greatest effect is due to the chlorine atom adjacent to the methoxy group. For chlorinated anisoles, the substituents adjacent to the methoxy group (2,6-disubstitution) cause large effects. For both groups of comp…
Comparative NMR and IR spectral, X-ray structural and theoretical studies of eight 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxides
2007
Abstract Eight 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxides are characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy. Single crystal X-ray structures for three congeners are reported. In addition, the transmission of substituent effects in conjugated double bond system of 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxide framework has been evaluated by calculating the correlations between selected 13C NMR chemical shifts and IR stretching wave numbers and Hammett constants of the substituents locating in the phenyl ring of the arylidene moiety.
