摘要:
The C=O stretching frequencies of substituted benzoylketene-S,S-dimethylacetals (1a-1o) and benzoylketene-S,S-ethyleneacetals (2a-2m) were measured in CHCl3 and CCl4 and correlated with the Hammett substituent constants. The correlations were split into two different and well separated lines for compounds containing electron donor and electron acceptor substituents, which were assigned to s-trans and s-cis quasiplanar conformations. The correlations of carbonyl stretching frequencies with C=O bond orders and oxygen atom charge densities calculated using the semiempirical AM1 method reveal similar results consistent with assignments of structures 1 and 2 to two quasiplanar conformations. The preparation of some new benzoylketene-S,S-acetals is reported as well.
