Carbon-13 chemical shifts of 8 chromones and 35 isoflavones variously substituted by hydroxy-, acetoxy-, and methoxy-groups are assigned. The applicability of chemical shift increments reflecting inductive and resonance effects is discussed. Some general relations between substitution patterns and carbon shielding useful for the identification of naturally occurring isoflavones are outlined. Typical C—H couplings of chromone and phenyl carbons are analyzed for a 4′,6,7-trisubstituted derivative.
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.
