Abstract--'T n.m.r. spectra have been measured for thirty-two polychloroalkenes including (i) monosubstituted compounds CH2-=CHCCI,H,-,X, where -X stands for -H, -CI, alkyl, and trisubstituted alkenes CCI,-CHAIk, none of which form geometric isomers; (ii) disubstituted compounds RCH-CHR'; (iii) and (iv) trisubstituted compounds of the types R C C I -CHR' and CHCI-CCIR, respectively. Compounds (ii) to (iv) represent either individual isomers or mixtures of the Z and E forms. In the case of compounds (ii) and (iii), the ordering of chemical shifts is OB > 0 , for the @-carbon atoms and 0, <-: Oa for the adjacent tetrahedral ones. On the contrary, the signals of the sp2-carbon atoms of compounds (iv) obey the rule 6 , < 6,.The effect of vinyl and allyl groups as substituents on the 13C chemical shifts of chlorine-containing groups is discussed. The dependence of the spz-carbon spin-spin coupling constants J(l3C-lH) on the number of chlorinated substituents in the molecule is also considered.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
