Primary Studies on Variation in Position of Trifluoromethyl Groups in Several Aromatic Group‐14 Derivatives by 19 F‐NMR Spectroscopy

Variation in the position of CF 3 groups in several aromatic Group‐14 compounds was studied by 19 F‐NMR spectroscopy. In these compounds R n ECl 4− n ( n =1 or 2; E=Si, Ge, or Sn; R=2,4,6‐(CF 3 ) 3 C 6 H 2 (=Ar), 2,6‐(CF 3 ) 2 C 6 H 3 (=Ar′), or 2,4‐(CF 3 ) 2 C 6 H 3 (=Ar″)), Ar, Ar′, and Ar″ are al...

Description
Summary:Variation in the position of CF 3 groups in several aromatic Group‐14 compounds was studied by 19 F‐NMR spectroscopy. In these compounds R n ECl 4− n ( n =1 or 2; E=Si, Ge, or Sn; R=2,4,6‐(CF 3 ) 3 C 6 H 2 (=Ar), 2,6‐(CF 3 ) 2 C 6 H 3 (=Ar′), or 2,4‐(CF 3 ) 2 C 6 H 3 (=Ar″)), Ar, Ar′, and Ar″ are all bulky, strongly electron‐withdrawing ligands. The 19 F‐NMR studies of the variation in position of the CF 3 substituents in these compounds as revealed by chemical shifts could be correlated with the electronegativities of the central elements E, and with intramolecular E–F interactions derived from single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction data. These interactions are considered to play an important role in the stabilization of these compounds.
