Conformational preference and internal rotation about the C1—Cα bond in phenylacetaldehyde and some benzyl alkyl ketones from 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and abinitio molecular orbital calculations

Abstract: . Can. J. Chem. 65,538 (1987). Analysis of the 'H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the benzyl moieties in phenylacetaldehyde, benzyl methyl ketone, benzyl ethyl ketone, benzyl isopropyl ketone, and 3,5-dichlorobenzyl tert-butyl ketone yields the long-range couplings between ring and a protons. These stereospecific couplings change very little upon replacement of the aldehydic hydrogen by various alkyl groups. The couplings for all the molecules studied fall within the ranges 4~(~~2 , H,) = -0.566 ? 0.008 … Show more

“…A 6 ~( ~, ~~) as small in magnitude as 0.04 Hz and negative in sign is known for a highly hindered toluene derivative in which the C-H bond containing the coupled proton is strongly confined to the aromatic plane (unpublished work in this laboratory). Because of its simple conformational behaviour, 6 ~( ~, ~~) has proved informative about side-chain 'orientations and about internal rotational potentials in benzene derivatives, particularly for those to which classical methods are not easily applicable (3)(4)(5). Again, 6~ (H, SH) in thiophenol derivatives (6) or, for example, 6 ~( ~, 1 3 ~) in derivatives of benzyl cyanide-8-13C (7) have the signs expected of a u-T spin-spin coupling mechanism.…”
