Previously, an "additivity" equation relating experimental 13 C chemical shift data for two monosubstituted diphenyl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one series was developed to predict chemical shifts for a similarly substituted bis-disubstituted thiazolidinone series. The sites of interest in the 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one are at the C-2, C-4, and C-5 carbons. The empirically derived equation for predicting the chemical shifts iswhere XY is the predicted chemical shift for the disubstituted thiazolidinone, H is the experimental chemical shift for the unsubstituted thiazolidinone, X is the experimental chemical shift for substituent in the 2-phenyl ring, and Y is the experimental chemical shift for substituent in the N-(3)-phenyl ring. This article discusses the application of the aforementioned equation with respect to a new series of 2-(p-chlorophenyl)-substituted-3-phenyl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-oneswith a comparison of both experimental and predicted 13 C chemical shifts for the C-2, C4 and C-5 sites in the thiazolidinone ring. Utilization of the equation showed a level of chemical shift predictability with a degree of accuracy in concert with a previously reported series. The degree of predictability again showed a dependency on the particular substituent and the chemical shift for the site being predicted. This was ±0.06 ppm for C-2, ±0.2 ppm for C-4 and ±0.09 ppm for C5. Finally, there was a correlation between Hammett values and the substituent chemical shifts using13 C values at C-2. The r value was -0.86 indicating that the C-2 carbon preferred a positive charge.
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.
