Quantum-chemical calculations were carried out both for the isolated species and Hcomplexes in gas and in polar medium. The predominance of the 1-FeqMeax conformer (1-F-eq:1-F-ax ratio of 65:35, Delta G degrees = 0.37 kcal/mol) determined from GED is close to the theoretically estimated conformational equilibrium, especially at the DFT level. In solution, low temperature NMR spectroscopy showed no decoalescence of the signals in C-13 (down to 95 K) and F-19 NMR spectra (down to 123 K). However, the calculated F-19 chemical shift of -173.6 ppm for the 1-FeqMeax conformer practically coincides with the experimentally observed value (-173 to -175 ppm) as distinct from that for the 1-FaxMeeq conformer (-188.8 ppm), suggesting compound 1 to be anancomeric in solution, in compliance with its theoretical and experimental preference in the gas phase.}, language = {en} } @article{KleinpeterKoch2021, author = {Kleinpeter, Erich and Koch, Andreas}, title = {Intramolecular carbene stabilization via 3c,2e bonding on basis of the magnetic criterion}, series = {Tetrahedron : the international journal for the rapid publication of full original research papers and critical reviews in organic chemistry}, volume = {95}, journal = {Tetrahedron : the international journal for the rapid publication of full original research papers and critical reviews in organic chemistry}, publisher = {Elsevier Science}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0040-4020}, doi = {10.1016/j.tet.2021.132357}, pages = {9}, year = {2021}, abstract = {The spatial magnetic properties, through-space NMR shieldings (TSNMRS), of bent cyclobutylcarbene 8, 1,2-diboretane-3-ylidene 9, and some carbene analogues of boron 14-18 as most intriguing examples of carbenes, which can be stabilized as homoaromatic systems with 3c,2e bonding, have been calculated using the GIAO perturbation method employing the nucleus independent chemical shift (NICS) concept and the results visualized as iso-chemical-shielding surfaces (ICSS) of various size and direction.
