Abstract

Stereoelectronic interactions are commonly required to explain the stability of different compounds or the reactivity of some substrates. Moreover, these interactions are important to understand the effects of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups in aromatic systems, mainly related to resonance effects. Despite of these known interactions, the effect of some groups (e.g. nitro and amine) in dissubstituted systems are not completely understood especially in ortho orientation. Stereoelectronic interactions have been studied in our group by NMR parameters, dealing mainly on how these interactions affect the magnitude of the heavy-atom effect on the 13C NMR chemical shifts. Experimental values of 13C NMR chemical shifts, related to the iodonitrobenzene isomers (ortho, meta and para) and iodoaniline isomers, showed intriguing differences. Therefore, the target of this project is to investigate which components of 13C shielding tensor are responsible for the experimental differences of chemical shifts found between three isomers (ortho, meta and para) of the iodonitrobenzene and iodoaminobenzene. The NBO and NLMO contributions to the 13C NMR shielding tensor, as well as, the orbital rotation model and HOMO-LUMO energy gap study are proposed to be used to rationalize the trends of shielding tensor.
