For the purpose of correlation of chemical shifts and geminal coupling constants with stereochemistry a number of compounds of fixed geometry have been synthesized. These include seven 6-substituted 1-phenylphthalans, five 6-substituted 2-methyl-1-phenylisoindolines, and six 2-substituted 5H-dibenzo-[a,d]cycloheptene oxides. The geometrical properties of the three ring systems are discussed and arguments in favor of a quasi-equatorial epoxide substituent in the latter series are supported by n.O.e. measurements.

The three fluorine atoms of N,N-dialkyl amide and chloride derivatives of 2-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,3,3-trifluoropropanoic acid are magnetically nonequivalent below –60 °C and exhibit a clear ABC coupling pattern from which chemical shifts and geminal coupling constants are readily derived. The chemical shifts span a range of about 10 ppm and the geminal coupling constants average about 110 Hz. A five bond coupling of about 5 Hz is observed between the hydrogens of the methoxy group and one of the nonequivalent fluorine atoms of the trifluoromethyl group. Barriers to the hindered rotation about the single bond to the trifluoromethyl group are in the range 36–46 kJ/mol.

The magnitude of —OCH2O— group geminal H,H coupling contants, the size of the vicinal coupling constants, and the tenets of conformational analysis were used to establish that in solution the conformation of the 1,3-dioxepane rings in derivatives of 1,3:2,5-di-O-methylenemannitol and 2,5-O-methylenemannitol is predominantly the twist-chair in which the C2 axis passes through the acetal carbon.

The 15N chemical shifts and 1J(15N, H) coupling constants of 1,4-bis(substituted amino)-9,10-anthraquinones and 1,4-bis(substituted amino)-2,3-dihydro-9,10-anthraquinones indicate that these derivatives exist as true aminoderivatives except for 1,4-bis(phenylamino)-2,3-dihydro-9,10-anthraquinone which forms a tautomeric mixture of the amino and imino forms in deuteriochloroform and hexadeuteriodimethyl sulphoxide.

The geminal coupling constants between the non-equivalent benzylic protons of a series of para- and meta-substituted N-benzyl-2-methylpiperidines were shown to be proportional to the Hammett σ constants of the substituents with ρ −1.38 in carbon tetrachloride, −1.21 in benzene, and nearly 0 in 1 N DCl solutions. The ρ values were compared with those of other series and were discussed in terms of the possible conformations involved. The chemical shifts of the benzylic protons of the piperidine derivatives did not give a good correlation with the Hammett σ constants in these solvents.

The n.m.r. spectra of 1α-methoxy-2β-hydroxy-3α-aminocyclohexane, 1α-methoxy-2α-hydroxy-3β-aminocyclohexane, their N-acetyl and O,N-diacetyl derivatives, ethoxy analogues, and 3α-amino-1α,2β-cyclohexanediol and 3β-amino-1α,2β-cyclohexanediol triacetates were measured in chloroform solution. From the chemical shifts of the O- and/or N-acetyl methyl protons it was possible to assign conformations to all the substituted derivatives and in most cases the assignments thus made were confirmed by first-order analysis of the multiplet pattern from the methine protons. In all cases, the conformations found were those predicted on simple conformational grounds and no evidence for a conformational equilibrium at room temperature was obtained from the coupling constants. In general, the coupling constants for the methine protons followed the pattern predicted by the Karplus equation. Acetylation of the 1α-alkoxy-2α-hydroxy-3β-aminocyclohexanes with acetic anhydride gave both the O,N-diacetyl derivative and the O,N,N-triacetyl derivative.

This paper provides evidence that three compounds previously assumed to be methoxyl derivatives of dihydroanthracenes (1) are actually cyclononatriene derivatives. The revised structural assignments, made on the basis of mass spectral and n.m.r. evidence, remove a previous inconsistency in their n.m.r. properties. The constancy of geminal coupling constants in all three cyclononatrienes is discussed.

First-order analysis of the 60 Mc.p.s. proton magnetic resonance spectra of 1α-methoxy-2β-acetoxy-3α-bromocyclohexane, 1α-methoxy-2α-acetoxy-3β-bromocyclohexane, 1α-methoxy-2β-bromo-3α-acetoxycyclohexane, 1α-methoxy-2α-bromo-3β-acetoxycyclohexane, and the corresponding diol diacetates confirmed the stereochemical interrelationships of substituents which were assigned previously on chemical grounds, and demonstrated that the compounds exist in chair conformations. The chemical shifts of the methoxy methyl and acetoxy methyl protons did not provide reliable criteria for the assignment of conformations to these substituents in this series. The coupling constants of the methine protons followed, in general, the pattern predicted by the Karplus equation, and the smaller J2,3 values observed in the cis,trans compounds relative to those in the trans,trans compounds are interpreted mainly on the basis of conformational equilibration, upon which is superimposed a small dihedral angular distortion or a remote substituent orientational effect.

trans-1,4,4-Trideuteriocyclohexene dichloride, dibromide, and diiodide and the 1,4,4-trideuterio-cis- and trans-1,2-cyclohexanediols together with their O-acetyl, O-tosyl, and O-isopropylidene derivatives were synthesized. Their nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectral parameters were obtained with a spectrometer operating at 100 Mc.p.s. and employing double irradiation to establish the chemical shifts and the signs of the coupling constants. The interpretation of the data according to expectations based on the Karplus relationship, for dihedral angles and coupling constants, support the conformational equilibria assigned to the trans-dichloride and trans-dibromide of cyclohexene on the basis of dipole moment measurements (previously published results). The results indicate that trans-cyclohexene diiodide exists to about 84% in the diaxial conformation. In the case of the 1,2-cis-disubstituted cyclohexanes, the occurrence of the signal for the 3-hydrogen in trans relation to the 2-hydrogen at lower field than its geminal 3-hydrogen is assigned to the deshielding influence on the 3-hydrogen when in axial orientation by an opposing axial oxygen at the 1-position. Support for this contention was obtained by determination of the chemical shifts of the geminal hydrogens at the 3- and 5-positions of the cis- and trans-4-t-butyl-2,2,6,6-tetradeuterio-1-methylcyclohexanols. The conformational equilibria indicated for the 1,2-diol, 1,2-diacetoxy, and 1,2-ditosyloxy trans derivatives of 1,4,4-trideuteriocyclohexane by NMR parameters obtained from the spectrum of the O-isopropylidene derivatives of the trans-diol allowed conclusions regarding the non-bonded interaction energies involved. The Karplus relation had to be adjusted to the form, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to accommodate the results. Solvent effects on conformation are noted. Also, the investigation provided further evidence for the opposite signs of the coupling constants for geminal and vicinal hydrogens. A consideration of the chemical shifts observed for a variety of derivatives of cyclohexanol appears to indicate that intramolecular shielding effects are better accounted for on the basis of neighboring atomic groupings than on the basis of individual chemical bonds.
