Condensation of 1,8,13-tris(mercaptomethyl)triptycene and tris(bromomethyl)methane yields an in,in-cyclophane with two inwardly directed methine groups. Based on X-ray analysis and DFT and MP2 calculations, the hydrogen-hydrogen non-bonded contact distance is estimated to be 1.50-1.53 Å. Furthermore, the two in-hydrogen atoms show obvious spin-spin coupling with J=2.0 Hz.
1,8,13-三(巯甲基)三亚苯与三(溴甲基)甲烷缩合得到具有两个向内指向亚甲基的内,内-环丙烷。基于 X 射线分析和 DFT 和 MP2 计算,估计氢-氢非键接触距离为 1.50-1.53 Å。此外,两个内氢原子表现出明显的自旋-自旋偶合,J=2.0 Hz。
