For intermediates 2a-f, prepared by the reactions of substituted aminonaphthols with benzyl N-(2-formylphenyl)carbamate, not only the expected trans ring form B and chain form A(1), but also the rearranged chain form A(2) as a new tautomer were detected in DMSO at room temperature. The quantity of A(2) in the tautomeric mixture was changed with time. Conformational analyses of the target heterocycles 3a-f by NMR spectroscopy and accompanying theoretical calculations at the DFT level of theory revealed that the oxazine ring preferred a twisted chair conformation and the quinazolone ring was planar. Besides the conformations, both the configurations at C-7a and C-15 and the preferred rotamers of the 1-naphthyl substituent at C-15 were assigned, which allowed evaluation of the aryl substituent-dependent steric hindrance in this part of the molecules. Configurational assignments were corroborated by quantifying the ring current effect of 15-aryl in terms of spatial NICS.}, language = {en} } @article{HansenKochKleinpeter2018, author = {Hansen, Poul Erik and Koch, Andreas and Kleinpeter, Erich}, title = {Ring current and anisotropy effects on OH chemical shifts in resonance-assisted intramolecular H-bonds}, series = {Tetrahedron letters}, volume = {59}, journal = {Tetrahedron letters}, number = {23}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {0040-4039}, doi = {10.1016/j.tetlet.2018.05.006}, pages = {2288 -- 2292}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Ring current effects on resonance-assisted and intramolecularly bridged hydrogen bond protons for 10-hydroxybenzo[h]quinoline 1 and a number of related compounds were calculated and the through-space NMR shieldings (TSNMRS) obtained hereby visualized as iso-chemical-shielding surfaces (ICSS) of various size and direction. These calculations revealed that this through-space effect is comparably large (up to 2 ppm) dependent on the position of the intramolecularly bridged OH proton, and therefore, contribute considerably to the chemical shift of the latter making it questionable to use delta(OH)/ppm in the estimation of intramolecular hydrogen bond strength without taking this into account. Furthermore, the anisotropy effects of additional groups on the aromatic moiety (e.g. the carbonyl group in salicylaldehyde or in o-hydroxyacetophenone of ca. 0.6 ppm deshielding) should also be considered. These through-space effects need to be taken into account when using OH chemical shifts to estimate hydrogen bond strength.}, language = {en} } @article{KleinpeterKoch2019, author = {Kleinpeter, Erich and Koch, Andreas}, title = {Benzyne - an acetylene- or cumulene-like electronic structure?}, series = {Tetrahedron}, volume = {75}, journal = {Tetrahedron}, number = {33}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {0040-4020}, doi = {10.1016/j.tet.2019.07.011}, pages = {4663 -- 4668}, year = {2019}, abstract = {The spatial magnetic properties, through-space NMR shieldings (TSNMRS), of benzyne 1 and analogues (benzene 2, 1,2,3-cyclohexatriene 3, cyclohexen-3-yne 4, cyclohexen-4-yne 5, cyclohexyne 6) have been calculated using the GIAO perturbation method employing the nucleus independent chemical shift (NICS) concept and visualized as iso-chemical-shielding surfaces (ICSS) of various size and direction. The TSNMRS values could be employed to compare the diatropic ring current effects of benzene and benzyne, and, when compared with the spatial magnetic properties of the analogues, to answer the question whether the benzyne electronic structure is more acetylene- or cumulene-like, supported by structural data and delta(C-13)/ppm values.
