Abstract
13C Chemical shift data have been obtained for more than 50 thiochromanone and related sulfoxide and sulfone derivatives. The assignments of the various resonances in the most important of these have been made using the limited data already available and also by comparison with certain model compounds, such as thioanisole, diphenyl sulfide, and the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones.Within each of these three series and in a fourth which comprises derivatives of thiochromone, including three α, β-unsaturated thiones, we have examined the effects on 13C chemical shift of substitution at various positions in the thiochromanone skeleton. Among the substituents examined in this context are methyl, phenyl, methoxyl, bromine, and carbomethoxyl. Attempts to compare the 13C chemical shifts for the thiochromanone series with those in a few oxygen containing analogs and in a small number of structurally similar analogs are also discussed.
