Notes:
The effect of deuterium on the 13C and 15N chemical shifts of enaminones has been investigated. D/H isotope shifts are reported for neutral and protonated species, i.e., when the isotope is exchanged on the C(2)-, N-, or O-atoms. In cases of slow exchange the isotope shifts were obtained from solutions containing both isotopomers, whereas for fast exchange (acidic solutions) either separate NMR. sample tubes (15N-NMR.) or coaxial tubes (13C-NMR.) were used.In neutral molecules the isotope effects δC(D, H) are intrinsic in nature. In acidic solutions, the enaminocarbonyl cations formed exhibit δC(D, H)- and δN(D, H)-values which are discussed in terms of the proton transfer. The mesomeric character of the cations is reflected by characteristic features in the δC(D, H)- and δN(D, H)-values, which can be ascribed to isotopic perturbation of resonance.O-Protonation shifts in the 15N-resonance, observed for the first time, are large and positive (+60 to +76 ppm), in contrast to amides, where the effects are of the same sign but an order of magnitude smaller. Both protonation shifts and solvent-induced isotope effects are discussed in connection with the nucleophilic character of the reactive centers in the enaminone synthon.
