A BN indole-containing aromatic scaffold has been synthesized and the cation-π binding ability characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) monitored titrations. The resulting chemical shifts were analyzed using a non-linear curve fitting procedure and the extracted association constants (Ka's) compared with the natural indole scaffold. Computations were also performed to support our findings. This work shows that incorporation of a B-N bond in place of a C-C bond in an aromatic system slightly lowers the cation-π binding ability of the arene's π-system with simple cations.
合成了一种含有 BN 吲哚的芳基骨架,并通过核磁共振(NMR)监测滴定法表征了其阳离子-π 键结合能力。使用非线性曲线拟合程序分析了得到的化学位移,并将提取的结合常数(Ka)与天然吲哚骨架进行了比较。还进行了计算以支持我们的发现。这项工作表明,在芳环系统中用 B-N 键代替 C-C 键会略微降低芳环的π-系统与简单阳离子的阳离子-π 键结合能力。
