Isotopic splitting patterns in the ¹³C NMR spectra of some partially deuterated 1‐aryl‐2‐(phenyldiazenyl)butane‐1,3‐dione and 4‐hydroxy‐3‐(phenyldiazenyl)‐2H‐chromen‐2‐one: evidence for elucidation of tautomeric forms

Abstract

Aims & scope MRC is devoted to the rapid publication of papers which are concerned with the development of magnetic resonance techniques, or in which the application of such techniques plays a pivotal part. Contributions from scientists working in all areas of NMR, ESR and NQR are invited, and papers describing applications in all branches of chemistry, structural biology and materials chemistry are published. The journal is of particular interest not only to scientists working in academic research, but also those working in commercial organisations who need to keep up-to-date with the latest practical applications of magnetic resonance techniques. 54(5) 347-414 (2016) ISSN 0749-1581 347 Q.E.COSY: determining sign and size of small deuterium residual quadrupolar couplings using an extended E.COSY principle 351-357 P. Tzvetkova and B. Luy The Q.E.COSY as an extension of the E.COSY principle allows the sign sensitive measurement of residual quadrupolar couplings in partially aligned samples even in cases where corresponding splittings are not resolved in the deuterium 1D spectrum. Several experimental demonstrations are given. Isotopic splitting patterns in the 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of some partially deuterated 1-aryl-2-(phenyldiazenyl)butane-1,3-dione and 4-hydroxy-3-(phenyldiazenyl)-2H-chromen-2-one were investigated: CDCl 3 and/or DMSO-d6 with addition of two drops of D 2 O. All dyes showed intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Among ten dye samples, two dyes derived from benzoylacetone did not show deuteration, three dyes showed partial deuteration and five dyes showed full deuteration under similar conditions. wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/mrc MRC Contents continued overleaf Contents continued Hopping and residence times of water on biochar surface have been measured by fast field cycling NMR relaxometry. These were related to biochar wettability. NMR results accorded with those from contact angle measurements, thereby indicating that the former technique is a valid alternative to the latter. Advantage of relaxometry over contact angle measurements lies in the possibility to obtain not only wettability, but also mechanisms of water molecular dynamics on biochar surface, thereby leading to the understanding of its role in increasing soil quality and plant nutrition.
