Carbon resonance

Benzoates. The selective debenzoylation of sucrose octabenzoate [2425-84-5] using isopropylamine in the absence of solvents caused deacylation in the furanose ring to give 2,3,4,6,1/3/6 -hepta- and 2,3,4,6,1/6 -hexa-O-benzoyl-sucroses in 24.1 and 25.4% after 21 and 80 hours, respectively (54). The unambiguous assignment of partially benzoylated sucrose derivatives was accompHshed by specific isotopic labeling techniques (54). Identification of any benzoylated sucrose derivative can thus be achieved by comparison of its C-nmr carbonyl carbon resonances with those of the assigned octabenzoate derivative after benzoylation with 10 atom % benzoyl—carbonyl chloride in pyridine. 

Chemical shifts of pyridine and the diazines have been measured as a function of pH in aqueous solution and generally protonation at nitrogen results in deshielding of the carbon resonances by up to 10 p.p.m. (73T1145). The pH dependence follows classic titration curves whose inflexions yield pK values in good agreement with those obtained by other methods. 

Af-Oxidation of pyrazines appears to result in increased shielding of the a and a carbon resonances by 6-11 p.p.m., whereas the /3 and /3 carbon atoms are deshielded by 3-4 p.p.m., a trend similar to that observed with substituted pyridines. These results have been qualitatively explained in terms of resonance polar effects (80OMR(l3)l72). 

Some results have been published on 2-alkylisothiazole-3- and -5-thiones (75CJC836, 80JCS(P 1)2693). As expected, the resonance of the carbon attached to the exocyclic sulfur atom is shifted downfield, to around 185 p.p.m. in the case of the 3-thiones and to over 190p.p.m. for the 5-thione. It is possible that CNMR chemical shifts could be used to investigate tautomerism in related compounds. Saccharin has carbon resonances at 161.0 (3), 127.9 (3a), 125.1 (4), 134.7 and 135.5 (5 and-6), 121.2 (7) and 139.5 (7a) p.p.m. in DMSO solution <82UP41700>. 

A second interesting point about both spectra in Figure 13.8 is that the peaks aren t uniform in size. Some peaks are larger than others even though they are one-carbon resonances (except for the two 2-carbon peaks of j ara-bromoaceto-phenone). This difference in peak size is a general feature of l3C NMR spectra.

Methylcyclohexene will have five sp3-carbon resonances in the 20 to 50 6 range and two s/ -carbon resonances in the 100 to 150 6 range. Methylenecyclohexane, however, because of its symmetry, will have only three sp3-carbon... 

ADMET reaction. The 13C NMR spectrum also allows the scientist to distinguish between cis and trans internal sp2 carbons as well as the allylic carbons, which are adjacent to the internal vinyl position. Using quantitative 13C NMR analysis, the integration of the peak intensities between die allylic carbon resonances and diose of the internal vinyl carbons gives die percentage of trans/cis stereochemistry diat is present for the polymer.22 Empirically, the ratio of trans to cis linkages in ADMET polymers has typically been found to be 80 20. Elemental analysis results of polymers produced via ADMET demonstrate excellent agreement between experimental and theoretical values. 

Possibly the most characteristic piece of information one can obtain to prove the existence of a I-heteroaallene is the central carbon C NMR chemical shift. This carbon chemical shift is very deshielded. typically being greater than 200 ppm, which stands out from most other carbon resonances in a normal organic molecule. Most of the group 14 I-heteroallenes listed in Table VII have shifts greater than 200 ppm. Also, as the heteroatom becomes larger, the resonance moves farther downfield. 

Dihalocarbene complexes are useful precursors to new carbenes by nucleophilic displacement of the chlorine substituents. This has been nicely illustrated for Fe(TPP)(=CCl2) by its reaction with two equivalents of Re(CO)5J to give the unusual /t-carbido complex Fe(TPP)=C=Re(CO)4Re(CO)5 which also contains a rhenium-rhenium bond. " The carbido carbon resonance was observed at 211.7 ppm in the C NMR spectrum. An X-ray crystal structure showed a very short Fe=C bond (1.605(13) A, shorter than comparable carbyne complexes) and a relatively long Re=C bond (1.957( 12) A) (Fig. 4, Table III). " ... 

The broad-band decoupled C-NMR spectrum of ethyl acrylate shows five carbon resonances the DEPT (6 = 135°) spectrum displays only four signals i.e., only the protonated carbons appear, since the quaternary carbonyl carbon signal does not appear in the DEPT spectrum. The CH and CH3 carbons appear with positive amplitudes, and the CHj carbons appear with negative amplitudes. The DEPT (6 = 90°) spectrum displays only the methine carbons. It is therefore possible to distinguish between CH3 carbons from CH carbons. Since the broadband decoupled C spectrum contains all carbons (including quaternary carbons), whereas the DEPT spectra do not show the quaternary carbons, it is possible to differentiate between quaternary carbons from CH, CHj, and CH3 carbons by examining the additional peaks in the broad-band spectrum versus DEPT spectra. The chemical shifts assigned to the various carbons are presented around the structure. 

The one-bond hetero-COSYspectrum of 7-hydroxyfrullanoIide exhibits interactions for all nine protonated carbons. The most downfield crosspeaks, K and L, represent one-bond heteronuclear correlations of the two vinylic exomethylenic protons resonating at 8 5.71 and 6.06 with the C-13 carbon (8 120.5). The C-6a proton, which resonates downtield at 8 4.97 due to the directly bonded oxygen atom, displays correlation with the carbon resonating at 8 80.9 (cross-peak D). Cross-peaks G and M represent h interactions of the C-1 methylene protons (8 1.33 and 1.31, respectively) with C-1 (8 38.1). Similarly, cross-peaks E and F display heteronuclear interactions of the C-8 methylenic protons (8 1.48 and 1.72) with C-8 (8 30.7), while cross-peak C couplings of C-3 methylene protons at 8 1.97 and 1.99 with C-3 (8 32.5). Couplings between the C-1 methylene protons and C-1 (8 38.1) can be inferred from cross-peak A, though in this case both the C-1 a and protons resonate very close to each other (i.e., 8 1.31 and 1.33). Cross-peak C is due to C-9 methylene, while cross-peak I represents the C-15 methyl. The heteronuclear interactions between the most upheld C-2 methy-... 

The most downfield cross-peaks, V-Y, are due to heteronuclear couplings of the aromadc or vinylic protons and carbons. For instance, cross-peak Y represents heteronuclear interaction between the C-1 vinylic proton (8 5.56) and a carbon resonating at 8 134.0 (C-1). The downfield cross-peaks, V and W, are due to the heteronuclear correlations of the ortho and meta protons (8 7.34 and 7.71) in the aromatic moiety with the carbons resonating at 8 128.3 and 126.9, respectively. The remaining cross-peak X is due to the one-bond correlation of the C-4 aromatic proton (8 7.42) with the C-4 carbon appearing at 8 131.4. The cross-peak U displays direct H/ C connectivity between the carbon at 8 77.9 (C-6) and C-6 methine proton (8 4.70). The crosspeak T is due to the one-bond heteronuclear correlation of carbon... 

The HMQC spectrum of vasicinone shows nine cross-peaks representing seven protonated carbons, since two of them (i.e., A and B, and C and D) represent two methylene groups. The C-4a and )8 methylene protons (8 2.70 and 2.20) show one-bond heteronuclear correlations with the carbon resonating at 8 29.4 (cross-peaks A and B), while the C-So and )3 methylene protons (8 4.21 and 4.05) exhibit cross-peaks... 

The 2D INADEQUATE spectrum provides carbon-carbon connectivity information and allows the entire carbon framework to be built up. The best strategy for the interpretation of a complex INADEQUATE spectrum is to start with the most downfield satellite carbon resonance and to trace the subsequent connectivities. Using this strategy,...
