INADEQUATE spectra reaction

Several peaks arising from different pentad and hexad comonomer sequences have been observed n the C-NMR spectrum of stereoregular 1-butene-propylene copolymers. The paper by Aoki and co-workers [54] demonstrated that the analytical method based on the two-dimensional (2D)-INADEQUATE spectrum and the chemical shift calculation via the y-effect is very powerful for the assignment of C-NMR spectra of higher a-olefin copolymers. A stereoregular 1-butene-propylene copolymer is a suitable example because reliable assignments have been proposed by a reaction probability model [55]. 

In 2001, Knaack and co-workers56 reported an application of the INADEQUATE experiment in the course of synthesizing and characterizing a biologically active 2-[l-(4-chlorobenzyl)-lH-indol-3-yl]-2-oxo-N-pyri-din-4-yl acetamide (6). Treatment of l-(4-chlorobenzyl)-lH-indole with oxalyl chloride afforded the corresponding oxoacetyl chloride that was finally subjected to aminolysis with 4-aminopyridine to afford the final product of the reaction scheme, 6. Although the NMR data supported the N-benzyl structure, a 1,1-ADEQUATE spectrum was acquired to provide additional confirmation of the structure of 6.
