The conformational properties of 2-alkyl (Me, Et, i-Pr, and t-Bu) and 2-phenyl derivatives of 1,3-dioxa-5,6-benzocycloheptene (1) were studied by 13C dnmr. Analysis of slow exchange spectra at 100.6 MHz indicates that all derivatives except tert-butyl exist in an equilibrium of chair (major) and twist-boat (minor) conformations. Substituent effects on the position of the equilibrium are rationalized in terms of steric effects.

The influence of substituents on the conformational properties of N-substituted 5,6-dihydro-7H,12H-dibenz[c,f]azocines and their conjugate acids was studied by n.m.r. spectroscopy. The position of the equilibrium between a rigid boat-chair and a flexible twist-boat conformation has been measured. The twist-boat conformation in deuterochloroform increased as the size of the substituent increased. However, the effect was opposite for the series of conjugate acids in trifluoroacetic acid.A number of inversion barriers for the [Formula: see text] and the [Formula: see text] equilibria in CDCl3 and TFA were determined. It was found that all barriers to interconversion were raised on protonation. The barrier to racemization for the twist-boat form of the quaternary methiodide of 1 was found to be >18 kcal/mol.

The 13C n.m.r. spectra of the 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-hexoses and some 3-O-acetyl and 1-phosphate derivatives are assigned and discussed. To facilitate the interpretation of the spectra, an initial assignment of the resonances in the spectrum of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose was required. For this purpose, both the 3-2H and 4-2H derivatives of this acetamido-hexose were synthesized. These syntheses are reported together with those of 2-acetamido-3-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-D-glucose and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy α- and β-D-glucose-1-phosphate. These model compounds were used to study substituent effects related to the 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-hexose-containing polysaccharide antigens of N. meningitides.

A series of 17 phenyl substituted derivatives of 2-phenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine was synthesized. The structure and purity of these compounds were checked by means of elemental analyses, mass spectrometry, ultraviolet spectrophotometry, and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance. The pKa values were determined and are discussed in terms of substituent effects using Hammett substituent constants. The Hammett reaction constant ρ = 1.84 ± 0.05 was found to be much lower for para and meta substituted compounds than for anilines, even though the phenyl ring is attached directly to the basic centre in both cases.

Ligands of the type bis(ditoly1arsino)methane have been synthesized and their derivatives with hexacarbonylmolybdenum(0) prepared. Nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy have been used to determine the stereochemistry of the complexes and also to study steric effects within the molecules.
