Nuclear magnetic resonance ethers

Instmmental methods of analysis provide information about the specific composition and purity of the amines. QuaUtative information about the identity of the product (functional groups present) and quantitative analysis (amount of various components such as nitrile, amide, acid, and deterruination of unsaturation) can be obtained by infrared analysis. Gas chromatography (gc), with a Hquid phase of either Apiezon grease or Carbowax, and high performance Hquid chromatography (hplc), using siHca columns and solvent systems such as isooctane, methyl tert-huty ether, tetrahydrofuran, and methanol, are used for quantitative analysis of fatty amine mixtures. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (nmr), both proton ( H) and carbon-13 ( C), which can be used for quaHtative and quantitative analysis, is an important method used to analyze fatty amines (8,81). 

An unusual method for the preparation of syndiotactic polybutadiene was reported by The Goodyear Tire Rubber Co. (43) a preformed cobalt-type catalyst prepared under anhydrous conditions was found to polymerize 1,3-butadiene in an emulsion-type recipe to give syndiotactic polybutadienes of various melting points (120—190°C). These polymers were characterized by infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (44—46). Both the Ube Industries catalyst mentioned previously and the Goodyear catalyst were further modified to control the molecular weight and melting point of syndio-polybutadiene by the addition of various modifiers such as alcohols, nitriles, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, and cyano compounds.

Tris(dimethylamino)arsine (d2o 1.1248 nd 1.4848)3 is a colorless liquid which is readily hydrolyzed to form arsenic (III) oxide and dimethylamine when brought into contact with water. The compound is soluble in ethers and hydrocarbons. The product is at least 99.5% pure (with respect to hydrogen-containing impurities) as evidenced by the single sharp peak at —2.533 p.p.m. (relative to tetramethylsilane) seen in the proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of the neat liquid. 

The cationic ring-opening polymerization of cyclic ethers has been the subject of many recent investigations (1.. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods, particularly carbon-13 techniques, have been found most useful in studying the mechanism of these polymerizations ( ). In the present review we would like to report some of our recent work in this field. 

Tables 3-2 and 3-3 summarize the infrared and proton-NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopic properties of alcohols and ethers. In the proton NMR, the oxygen atom is deshielding. Phenols and alcohols rapidly exchange protons so their NMR spectra are solvent dependant. The alcohol and ether groups don t have any characteristics absorptions in UV-vis spectra.

Four kauranes present in the petroleum ether/ethyl acetate fractions of nemoralis were fully characterized by mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry and infrared as (-)-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid, (-)-kauran-16 <-ol, 15sC-hydroxy-(-)-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid and 17-hydroxy-(-)-kaur-15-en-19-oic acid... 

Attempts to generate thiocamphor (5)-methylide (44) by the addition of diazomethane to thiocamphor and subsequent N2-elimination from the [3-1-21-cycloadduct 43 led to enethiol ether 45 via a 1,4-H shift (Scheme 5.17). The formation of an unstable intermediate 43 was proposed on the basis of the proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( H NMR) spectrum of the crude mixture. The postulated intermediate 44 could not be intercepted by dipolarophiles or methanol, and did not undergo electrocyclization to give the corresponding thirrane (41). 

Rhinebarger et al. [35] and Eyring et al. [36,37] have used lithium-7 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shift data to determine the stability constants for crown-ether complexes of Li+ in two IL systems consisting of 55/45 mole% N-butylpyridinium chloride-aluminum chloride and l-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium chloride-aluminum chloride.

To return to the problem of the general invisibility or atoms, how does the chemist follow the course of a reaction ir the molecules cannot be imaged One way is to use spectroscopy. Thus the conversion or methanol, first to dimethyl ether, then to the higher aliphatic and aromatic compounds Round in gasoline, can be followed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (Fig. 1.6). As the reaction proceeds, the concentration or the methanol (as measured by the intensity or the NMR peak at <550 ppm) steadily decreases. The first product, dimethyl ether ( 60 ppm), increases at first and then decreases as the aliphatic and aromatic products eventually predominate. 

Ethers of the 1,2-benzisothiazole 1,1-dioxides (35 R = Et, Me3Si) have been shown to form 1,2-benzothiazepines 12 (R = Et, Mc Si) when treated with 1-diethylamino-l-propyne 37 <1996T3339>. These ethers 12 may be hydrolyzed to the ketone 13 (see also Section 13.07.2.1), which in the solid state is in equilibrium with the enol 12 (R = H) on the basis of infrared (IR) evidence (Scheme 3). In solution (CDCI3), only the keto form 13 was detectable by H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). 

If the unknown, neutral, oxygen-containing compound does not give the class reactions for aldehydes, ketones, esters and anhydrides, it is probably either an alcohol or an ether. Alcohols are readily identified by the intense characteristic hydroxyl adsorption which occurs as a broad band in the infrared spectrum at 3600-3300 cm-1 (O—H str.). In the nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum, the adsorption by the proton in the hydroxyl group gives rise to a broad peak the chemical shift of which is rather variable the peak disappears on deuteration.
