13C-NMR-Spektroskopie an polycyclischen Aromaten, IIΙ Die 13C-NMR-Spektren von Amino- und Dimethylaminonaphthalinen /13C NMR Spectroscopy of Polycyclic Aromatics, III The 13C NMR Spectra of Amino- and Dimethylaminonaphthalenes

Abstract

The 13C NMR spectra of twelve amino-, dimethylamino-, diamino-, and bis(dimethylamino)naphthalenes are completely assigned by selective 13C{1H} double resonance and by interpretation of proton-coupled spectra. Strong substituent effects (Δδ) upon chemical shifts are observed and can largely be accounted for by mesomerism. The pronounced high-field shifts of C-6 in the 2-amino- and 2-dimethylaminonaphthalenes coincide with the enhanced reactivity of this position towards electrophilic reagents. In 1-dimethylaminonaphthalene and even more so in 1-dimethylamino-2-methylnaphthalene, conjugation is inhibited for steric reasons and Δδ’s are greatly diminished, thus giving an estimate for the contribution of resonance to substituent-induced shifts in the unhindered compounds. In two 1,8-disubstituted naphthalenes there are large deviations from additivity of substituent effects.
