## Abstract The carboxyl proton chemical shifts of trimethylacetic acid, which was dissolved in acetone and in binary mixtures of acetone and cyclohexane, have been measured as a function of concentration at temperatures of 0, +15, +30, +45 and +60 Β°C. The results obtained for the system studied, u

β¦ Synopsis
Proton (deuteron) transfer ofhydrogen bonds in benzoic, glutark and pformylbenzoic acids was studied by proton (deuteron) T, measurements. Deuteration of carboxylic protons was found to increase the barriers to classical proton jumping as well as quantum-mechanical tunneling. The former barriers increase as the hydrogen-bond distance increases. NMR spectroscopy has shown that the two carboxylic protons in some carboxylic acid dimers undergo a simultaneous classical proton jump and quantum-mechanical tunneling along the hydrogen bonds [l-6]. The simultaneous proton transfer interconverts two different configurations A and B. R-C Qo--HO, C-R = R-C ,OH--0% ~O"__O~ C-R *0_+0 A B Whereas the two configurations are energetically degenerate in the free dimers, the degeneracy is generally removed in the solid state by distortion of the double-minimum intermolecular potential due to intermolecular interactions, producing a small enthalpy difference ALI between con~gurations A and B, as shown in fig. 1. The dynamics in this interesting system are studied mainly by proton T, meas-

A novel series of hydrogen-bonded solid 1 : 1 acid-base complexes of 15 N-labeled 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine (collidine) with carboxylic acids and their hydrogen bond deuterated analogs were synthesized and studied by 1 H magic angle spinning (MAS) and 15 N cross-polarization NMR with and without MAS.
Splittings, 6,, were observed for each carbon atom, C,, of chalcone in spectra obtained from coaxial 5 and 10 mm NMR sample tubes containing solutions equimolar in the concentration of the ketone and of TFA or TFA-d as hydrogen-bond donors, respectively. It was found that a linear expression, S,A,+x
## Abstract The title compounds contain groups (amine, amide, imine, carboxylic acid) that are capable of forming intramolecular hydrogen bonds involving a sixβmembered ring. In compounds where the two interacting functional groups are imine and carboxylic acid, the imine is protonated to give a zw
