✦ Synopsis


The two positionally isomeric cyclohexanotetraoxacyclotridecanes (13-crown-4 ethers) were synthesized and studied via low-temperature NMR methods. For the 1,4,8,11-tetraoxa isomer, the cyclohexane ring inversion is a degenerate process, whereas for the 1,4,7,11-tetraoxa isomer, a preference of 1.4 kJ mol~1 for the form in which the propyleneoxy group is equatorial was determined. Molecular mechanics calculations using MMindicated a preference of 0.6 kJ mol~1 for this conformer. Resonance assignment was facilitated by the synthesis of a selectively deuterated derivative and by COSY, HMQC and HMBC experiments. The results were compared with those for the related 10-crown-3 system and 13C chemical shift trends are discussed in terms of MMcalculated geometries.
