A series of cyclic enamine derivatives, stabilized through conjugation with an electron-attracting CO2Me group at the β-carbon of the enamine system, has been prepared. The influence of substituents at the vinylogous donor NH2 group on 13C chemical shifts has been investigated, and the results analyzed on the basis of resonance and steric effects on the dipolar charge distribution in the molecule. Intramolecular H-bonding was established for the N-methylated enamines 4a and 4b based on the high-frequency shift of the NH proton and its solvent immutability. Several deuterium-induced isotope effects on 13C chemical shift [nΔC(ND)] due to deuteration at the enamine nitrogen have been measured. The crystal structures of the enamine 1b and the N,N-diacetylated enamine 3a, determined by X-ray analyses, show that these compounds, in the solid state, adopt an s-trans disposition around the C-C=O bond, with the carbonyl ester group and the C=C double bond in an almost coplanar conformation. Comparison of bond lengths of 1b and 3a in the crystalline state provides information on changes in the extent of n-π delocalization arising from the nature of the N-substituent.Key words: β-enamino esters, furo[2,3-b]indoles, push-pull effects, 13C NMR, X-ray.

3,4,5-Trichloroguaiacol, which is formed during bleaching of chemical pulp and shown to bioaccumulate in fish, has been synthesized. The structure of the compound has been determined by means of X-ray analysis. The values of the 13C nmr chemical shifts and melting point differ from those previously reported. A reaction mechanism is suggested for the formation of 3,4,5- and 4,5,6-trichloroguaiacol.

Benzo-9-crown-3 ether trimerizes in the presence of FeCl3 and aqueous H2SO4 to produce tris(9-crown-3)triphenylene in 25.4% yield. This compound crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c space group: a = 13.759(2) Å, b = 13.318(2) Å, c = 13.399(2) Å, β = 96.883(2)°, with Z = 4. The three 9-crown-3 ether units of the trimer possess different geometries and there is substantial deviation from coplanarity in the three aromatic rings. 13C NMR chemical shifts in the solid state are consistent with this lack of symmetry and are discussed in terms of the X-ray crystal-structure data.Key words: crown ether, trimerization, stereochemistry.

Abstract A low temperature X-ray study of the enol of benzoylacetone indicates fixed positions of the C and O atoms within the enolic ring system and an extensive bond delocalisation over these atoms. The distribution of electron density between the two oxygen atoms shows that the enolic hydrogen is spread over a wide range. This is in accordance with a structural model proposed by de la Vega, whereupon the C and O atoms are kept fixed in their average positions during a tunneling process of the hydrogen between the two oxygen atoms. With this conception, the chemical shifts in the 17O and 13C NMR spectra, the 13C13C spin coupling constants and the temperature independance of these values can be explained.

The crystal structures of the title compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The molecule of the Z isomer, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 4 in a cell of dimensions a = 14.891 (2), b = 10.780(2), c = 8.769(1) Å, β = 97.47(2)°, V = 1395.7(7) Å3 has crystallographic twofold symmetry. The E form crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 11.730(1), b = 6.932(1), c = 16.841(1) Å, V = 1369.4(2) Å3 and Z = 4. Its molecules have crystallographically dictated [Formula: see text] symmetry. In both isomers the phenyl rings are roughly perpendicular to the average ethylene plane. The atoms characterizing this plane show significant deviations from planarity in the Z isomer. Marked bond-angle distortions at the ethene carbons of both structures are observed. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the compounds were measured and, particularly in the case of the 1H chemical shifts, fall into two quite separate spectral regions. At low temperature, two conformational isomers, those with different relative orientation of the C—Cl bonds of the phenyl rings, are observed in the spectrum of each compound.

13C nmr spectra of the 16 isomeric gem-dideuterooctadecanoates were measured and second and third atom deuterium isotope effects calculated for most of the affected carbons of 12 of the isomers. The average value for the second atom effect was −0.20 ppm and for the third atom effect was −0.05 ppm. From these effects and the changes in spectra caused by introduction of two deuterons at positions along the fatty acid chain, chemical shifts were determined for all carbons of methyl octadecanoate. Spectra of seven dideuterooxooctadecanoates, with both deuterons attached to a carbon γ to the oxo group, were measured, and using isotope effects, unambiguous assignments of chemical shift were made. Chemical shifts were thus assigned to all carbons in the 16 isomeric oxooctadecanoates and these show the effect of the carbonyl group at different positions in the chain. The results indicate that, in addition to large effects on carbons α and β to the oxo group, the γ to θ carbons are all shielded with displacements: γ −0.46, δ −0.30, ε −0.27, ζ −0.13, η −0.09, and θ −0.06 ppm. The effects of the oxo and ester carbonyls extend over seven methylene groups, but shielding due to ester carbonyl is a little smaller. Spectra of 2- to 9-oxo esters showed that interaction between the two carbonyl groups causes relatively greater shielding of carbons situated between the groups.

Mixtures of isomers of (perfluoroalkyl)tetramethylcyclopenta-1,3-dienes (CH3)4C5H(CF2)nCF3 (n = 3, 5, 7, 9) were synthesized as precursors of new cyclopentadienyl ligands for organotransition metal catalysis in fluorous biphase media and characterized by combination of GC-MS and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Rhodium(III) chloro complexes [Rh{(CH3)4C5(CF2)nCF3}Cl2]2 and rhodium(I) carbonyl complexes [Rh{(CH3)4C5(CF2)nCF3}(CO)2] were prepared from the cyclopentadienes and molecular structure of [Rh{(CH3)4C5(CF2)5CF3}Cl2]2 was determined by X-ray diffraction. The ligands are electronically close to the unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl as shown by values of carbonyl stretching frequencies in the carbonyl complexes. Neither carbonyl frequencies nor NMR chemical shifts of the complexes are substantially affected by the length of the perfluoroalkyl chain.

Tripentaerythritol was converted efficiently into 2′,2′′:6′,6′′:10′,10′′-tri-O-cyclohexylidene-2,2,6,6,10,10-hexakis(hydroxymethyl)-4,8-dioxa-1,11-undecandiol (4) by the toluenesulfonic acid catalysed reaction with cyclohexanone in a mixture of N,N-dimethylformamide and benzene. Reaction of tripentaerythritol with benzaldehyde under similar conditions gave an easily separated mixture of the four possible stereoisomers. Structures of these stereoisomers were assigned based on 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts using trends previously observed for the dibenzylidene acetals of dipentaerythritol, whose structures had been established unambiguously by X-ray crystallography. It was found that reduction of the mixture of benzylidene acetals to 2,6,10-tris(benzyloxymethyl)-4,8-dioxa-1,11-undecanediol could be accomplished using triethylsilane with ethylaluminium dichloride as the Lewis acid after a number of commonly used conditions for this transformation failed.Key words: pentaerythritol, tripentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, acetals, benzylidene acetals, reduction.
