In ; Q = the anion of quinolin-8-01). Variations in the chemical shifts of the alkyl protons are rationalized in terms of the opposition of two effects, the first being inductive redistribution of electron density, and the second being the diamagnetic anisotropy of induced electronic circulation in the n-system of the ligand Q ; the latter effect causes magnetic non-equivalence in the diastereotopic protons of the isobutyl groups of Bu*,AIQ. but the increased inner electron density of the metal atom produces attenuation of this separation for M = Ga, and apparent annihilation of it for M = In. Anisotropic circulation of electrons in the N-M-0 portion of the complexes is proposed to explain apparently anomalous chemical shifts of the protons adjacent to the heteroatoms in the aromatic ligand.
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.
