A number of N-substituted 2,2-dimethyl-1,4,2-oxazasilinanes 1 were synthesized and studied by variable temperature dynamic H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy, room temperature N-15 NMR spectroscopy and theoretical calculations at the DFT and MP2 levels of theory. Both the preferred conformers were assigned and the barrier to the ring inversion of the saturated six-membered ring determined. From 1 the corresponding methyl iodide salts were produced, their structure studied by X-ray analysis and found to be in excellent agreement with the results of the theoretical calculations.
A silicon analog of quinolizidine 3,3,7,7-tetramethylhexahydro-1H-[1,4,2]oxazasilino[4,5-d][1,4,2]oxazasilin-9a-yl)methanol 3 was synthesized. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the trans configuration and low temperature NMR spectroscopy both the flexibility (barrier of interconversion 5.8 kcal mol(-1)) and the conformational equilibrium (chair-chair and chair-twist conformers) of the compound. The relative stability of the different isomers/conformers of 3 was calculated also at the MP2/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. Intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding in 3 and the appropriate equilibrium between free and self-associated molecules was studied in solvents of different polarity. Both the N-methyl quaternary ammonium salt and the O-trimethylsilyl derivative of 3 could be obtained and their structure determined.
