Hindered Rotation in Diphenylmethane Derivatives. Electrostatic vs Charge-Transfer and Homoconjugative Aryl−Aryl Interactions
摘要:
A series of p,p'-disubstituted 7-phenyl-7-(2-fluorophenyl)norbornanes 5xy has been prepared, and the barrier (Delta G(#)) to 160 degrees libration around the 2-fluoroaryl-norbornane bond has been measured by DNMR. There is spectroscopic evidence of strong homoconjugative and charge-transfer (CT) interactions between both aryl groups of 5xy. However, the relationship between Delta G(#) and the nature of the substituents X and Y is accounted for only by electrostatic interactions between both aryl groups in the ground state as well as in the transition state of the libration. Therefore, the notion of CT and aromatic homoconjugation as strong attractive forces between aryl groups should be definitively rejected.

spectroscopic properties and computational studies of novel aromatic homoconjugated compounds derived from 7,7-diphenylnorbornane (DPN). The UV/Vis spectra of these compounds show bands corresponding to the respective chromophores as well as new homoconjugation bands and charge transfer absorptions in D–DPN–A push-pull derivatives. Homoconjugation between the aromatic rings strongly depends on the
