In addition to the chair conformers also the energetically adjacent twist conformers were considered and the positions of the corresponding conformational equilibria estimated. On the basis of the global energy minima of conformers, participating in the conformational equilibria, the 1J(C,Hax,equ) coupling constants were calculated using the GIAO method and compared with the experimental values obtained from C-13, H- 1 coupled C-13 NMR spectra. The Perlin effect, the influence of the solvent and the suitability of this NMR parameter for assigning the conformational equilibria present are critically discussed. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

The oxides were purified and their isomers separated using thin layer chromatography. The structural characterization was carried out with 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling. The sulfoxides 4-6 and 8-10 attain two S(1) type envelopes (sometimes slightly distorted) the S=Oax envelope greatly dominating. Cis-4-methyl-1-oxo-1,3-dithiolane is a special case exhibiting both two closely related S=Oax (30 and 27\%) as well as S=Oeq (21 and 22\%) forms [S(1) and C(4) envelopes, respectively]. The relative energies of these conformations, the values of 1H-1H coupling constants and 1H and 13C chemical shifts were estimated by computational methods and they support well the conclusions based on the experimental data.}, language = {en} } @article{KlinkaBalentovaBernatetal.2006, author = {Klinka, Karel D. and Balentova, Eva and Bern{\´a}t, Juraj and Imrich, Jan and Vavrusova, Martina and Kleinpeter, Erich and Pihlaja, Kalevi and Koch, Andreas}, title = {Tautomerism, regioisomerism, and cyclization reactions of acridinyl thiosemicarbazides}, issn = {0022-152X}, doi = {10.1002/jhet.5570430317}, year = {2006}, abstract = {The regioselectivities of methyl- and phenylhydrazine with acridin-9-yl isothiocyanate (thus yielding thiosemicarbazides with acridine substituted on the urea-type side) were examined.

The product resulting from reaction with methyl iodide was also studied and the previously reported semicarbazide produced by reaction with MNO was re-examined.

Energy calculations indicated that the Z configuration was predominant for each compound and, further, this was supported both by the calculated chemical shifts and the rNOE. Both N-inversion- and rotation-type transition-state structures were also calculated for the E/Z isomerization process, the results indicating that the preferred interconversion mechanism for 1 is N-inversion, but contrastingly, interconversion via rotation is equally as probable as N-inversion for 2. This supports the notion that one or the other or both pathways can be active and each system needs to be assessed on a case- by-case basis.

The substituent-induced changes in the chemical shift (SCS) were correlated with a dual substituent parameter equation. The contributions of conjugative (rho(R)) and nonconjugative effects (rho(F)) were analyzed, and mapping of the substituent-induced changes is given over the entire isoquinoline moiety for both series. The experimental results can be rationalized with the aid of the resonance polarization concept. This means the consideration of the substituent-sensitive balance of different resonance structures, i.e., electron delocalization, and the effect of the aromatic ring substituents on their relative contributions. With tetrahydroisoquinolines, the delocalization of the nitrogen lone pair (stereoelectronic effect) particularly contributes. Correlation analysis of the Mulliken atomic charges for the dihydroisoquinoline derivatives was also performed. The results support the concept of the substituent-sensitive polarization of the isoquinoline moiety even if the polarization pattern achieved via the NMR approach is not quite the same as that predicted by the computational charges. Previously the concepts of localized pi- polarization and extended polarization have been used to explain polar substituent effects within aromatic side-chain derivatives. We consider that the resonance polarization model effectively contributes to the understanding of the polar substituent effects}, language = {en} } @book{PihlajaKleinpeter1994, author = {Pihlaja, Kalevi and Kleinpeter, Erich}, title = {13C NMR chemical shifts in structural and stereochemical analysis}, series = {Methods in stereochemical analysis}, journal = {Methods in stereochemical analysis}, publisher = {VCH}, address = {New York}, year = {1994}, language = {en} }
