Conformational studies of α-substituted carbonyl compounds. Part 1. Conformation and electronic interaction in hetero-substituted acetones by infrared and ultraviolet spectroscopy

Abstract

νC[double bond, length half m-dash]O Frequencies and intensities and nπ* transition energies were measured for some heterosubstituted ketones (XCH2COMe : X = F, Cl, Br, I, NMe2, OMe, SMe, or SEt) and compared with the corresponding unsubstituted ketone. The stability of the gauche-conformers is discussed in terms of hyperconjugative interactions between σC – X and πC[double bond, length half m-dash]O orbitals and repulsive interactions between C[double bond, length half m-dash]O and C – X dipoles. The carbonyl frequency shifts, induced by inductive (ΔνI), field (ΔνF), and hyperconjugative effects (ΔνH), are estimated separately. A close relationship is shown to exist between the ΔνH values and the energies of the nπ* transition.
