While the TSNMRS approach proves really helpful [even in cases of (4n+2) pi-electron cyclic moieties formed via non-covalent polar interactions] quasi-aromaticity suggested for enol forms of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds via resonance-assisted intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonding cannot be confirmed.

Both orthogonal linear and orthogonal bent structures have been obtained. In the latter case the push-pull character could be quantified by the quotient method. The C-13 chemical shift of the central allene carbon atom C-2 and chemical shift differences Delta delta(C-1, C-2) and Delta delta(C-2, C-3) of allene carbon atoms proved to be a quantitative alternative. TSNMRS of ring-closed push-pull allenes have been computed in addition and were employed to identify polar, carbene-like and carbone-like canonical structures of these molecules.}, language = {en} }
