ABSTRACT:
Substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids have been prepared and characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectral analysis. Investigation of substituents effect and mode of transmission of electronic effects have been carried out by 13C NMR chemical shifts measurement and correlated it with LFER parameters in substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids.
KEYWORDS:1H and13C NMR,substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids, substituent effects.
Correlation of the chemical shift with substituent constant has been widely used to investigate the nature of the effect of the substituent on the physical properties of compounds. Electron density around the nucleus of interest (H,C) is mostly affected by the electron-donating and electron-withdrawing ability of the substituent. Therefore, a correlation between the observed chemical shift and any parameter representing such ability seems to be well-founded, and there are numerous reports on the subject1.
The single substituent parameter(SSP) approach which is represented by equation (1) has been used to correlate the chemical shift of m- and p- substituted compound to unsubstituted compound using the Hammettσmand σp values. Values of 13C were reported for the system of m-andp-substituted cinnamic acids2.
The dual substituent parameter (DSP) approach, on the other hand, divides the effect of substituent effect into inductive (σI) and resonance (σR) parameters as represented in Eq. (2).
Yukawa and Tsuno proposed Eq. (3) for dealing with enhanced resonance effects
The DSP analysis of sterically congested systems has been improved by TSP by using Charton’s steric parameter (ν) using Eq. (4).
The magnitude, as well as the sign of ρ, should have a profound meaning on the mechanism of the transmission of the substituent effect. For example, correlations of the chemical shift of carbonyl carbon with the Hammett σfor the system of benzanilides, X-C6H4-CO-NH-C6H4-Y show normal correlation when Y is varied, but thereverse correlation is observed when X is varied. πpolarizations have been attributed for such observation.3,4 The magnitude of ρx (-2.838 ppm, r=0.940) is larger than that of ρy(0.853 ppm, r= 0.975) in DMSO -d6. The carbonyl carbon is directly bonded to the phenyl ring of X-C6H4, but it is separated by the nitrogen atom from C6H4-Y and therefore, the ρxshould be larger than ρy. The estimation of sign and magnitude of the substituent chemical shift, however, seems to be complicated by many factors which affect the chemical shift.
Recently we reported the effect of substituents on the antimicrobial activities ofsubstituted 2-benzylidene 1,3-indandiones5 andsubstituted5-benzylidenebarbituric acids6.These above reports prompted us to undertake a detailed 13C NMR spectral and correlation study of substituted5-benzylidenebarbituric acids.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
All chemicals used were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. The purity of the compounds was checked by TLC on silica gel G plate.Substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids (Figure-1) were prepared by reaction of the corresponding substituted benzaldehyde with barbituric acid as reported earlier7.

Spectra:
1H and 13C spectra of substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids were obtained on a Bruker AMX 400 MHz spectrometer. Chemical shifts of 1H were measured with the peak ofDMSO at δ 2.51 as the internal reference, while those of 13C were recorded with the central peak of DMSO at δ 39.90 as the internal reference.The 1H and 13C chemical shifts of the substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids are presented in Tables 1 and 2 respectively.
Assignment of 1H and 13C chemical shifts:
Assignments of 1H chemical shifts were made using considerations of splitting patterns, spin decoupling and additivity of chemical shifts. The 13C chemical shifts were assigned by intensity and SCS considerations.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS:
Correlations with Lynch-Equation:
The SCS of monosubstituted benzenes has been very useful inthesignal assignment of polysubstitutedcompounds8-11. However, in many published studies summarized by Craik12 it has been apparent that the SCS values of X and Y at positions 4’ and 1’ in disubstituted benzenes Fig. (2) are non-additive. Lynch13 has proposed that the non-additivity of the chemical shifts of C-1’ and C-4’ is reflected in the relationship Eq. (5) where SCSX(Y) is the substituent chemical shift of thecarbon para-to X in the series of 1’,4’-disubstituted benzenes (Fig. 2, X, Y ≠ H),
Figure -2
![]()
SCSX(H) is the corresponding substituent chemical shift of the carbon parato X in monosubstituted benzenes (Fig.2, Y=H), ‘b’ is the slope parameter and ‘a’ is the shift calculated for the parent spices with X=Y. A wide range of successful correlations (using Lynch equation) have been established for the SCS of carbons bearing Y in Fig. (2) with the value of ‘b’ ranging from 0.6 to 1.514. When the slope is close to unity, experimental results could be reproduced by additivity relationship and when b ≠ 1, the Lynch equation can be used to predict the SCS values through proportionality relationships. The slope b of the Lynch equation Eq. (5) is less than one, then the fixed substituent at C-1’ Fig. (2) diminishes the substituent effect. When slope b is larger than one, showing that the fixed substituent undergoes an amplification of the substituent effect.
In case of C1,there is agoodcorrelation with (r=0.988) appropriate SCS (Si) values, slope b is 0.97, which reveals that the fixed substituent Y=-CH-C-C3H2N2O3, has little effect on the additivity of this shifts14.A satisfactory correlation exists between SCS of C22’ and So withacorrelation coefficient (r=0.828) and the slope value (b=0.84), indicating that the fixed substituent Y, significantly diminishes the substituent effect14.A poor correlation exists between SCS of C33’ and Sm withacorrelation coefficient (r=0.113) and the slope value (b=0.71) which reveals that the fixed substituent Y diminishes the substituent effect14.The C4 carbon affords a good correlation with Spwith correlation coefficient r=0.993 and the slope value b=0.94 demonstrates that the fixed substituent Y has little effect on the additivity of these shifts14. The results of Lynch correlations are given in table (3) and the plots of Lynch correlations shown in fig. (3).

Substituent effects on the 13C NMR chemical shifts of the substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids:
The use of 13C NMR SCS is to monitor the transmission of electronic effects in the molecular frame works in general and to understand the mode of transmission of long-range substituent effects in extended π-electron systems, in particular, are topics of current interest. Thus long-range 13C SCS have been reported for N-benzylideneanilines15, N-benzylidenebensylamines16, chalcones17, benzophenones18, phenylacetylenes19, β-nitrostyrenes20,21, cinnamic acids22,23, cinnamates24, benzonitrile25, cyanopyridine26, (E)-1-benzylidene-2-(diphenyl methylene) hydrazines27, aryl hydrazides28,(E)-1-benzylidene-2-(4-bromophenyl) hydrazines29, N-(substituted phenyl)-2-cyano acetamides30, 4-bromo-1-naphthyl chalcones31and symmetrical diimines32.The 13C chemical shift data of several carbon atoms of substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids has been correlated with SSP equation (Eq.1.), DSP equations (Eq.2.) and Yukawa-Tsuno equation (Eq.3.).
C4 - Carbon atom.
The Chemical shift of C4carbon appeared over a relatively narrow range of 16.24 ppm. The result of SSP analysis shown in the table (4), an excellent correlation affords by σp+ / σp- constant given in equation (6), and the plot of log δ C4 vs σp+ / σp- as shown in Fig. (4).\

The result of DSP analysis in thetable (5), afford an
excellent correlation are shown in equations (7) and (8)
.
The sign of ρI and ρR are positive reveals that the normal substituent effect operates on C4 carbon atom, i.e., an electron withdrawing substituent decrease the C4 carbon atom shielding and an electron releasing substituent increase it. Examination of chemical shift of data in table (2), electron-withdrawing substituent causes downfield shift and electron releasing substituent causes up field. The magnitude of ρRis greater than ρI indicate that the predominance of resonance effect over inductive effect in the chemical shift of C4 carbon atom. This result is also shown from Yukawa-Tsuno equation (3) is given in table (6). The result of best fit eq. (3) is given in equation (9)
Fig. 4. The plot of log δ C4 vs σp+ / σp-
C5 - Carbon atom:
The chemical shift of C5 carbon appeared over a relatively narrow range of 4.42 ppm. The SSP analysis with various σ parameters, σpo gave satisfactory correlation, results shown in the table (4). It gave negative correlation (Eq.10) and negative slope indicates that a reverse substituent effect operates on the carbonyl carbon. The Hammett plot of log δ C5 vs σpo gives,
Examination of chemical shift data (table 2) of C5 carbon, electron releasing group causedownfield shift by increasing the shielding and electron withdrawing group cause upfield shift by decreasing the shielding.
The DSP analysis of C5 carbon with various σR scale is given in table (8),the best fit is given in equations (11) and (12)
The sign of slopes ρI and ρR are negative, reveals that the reverse substituent effect operates on C5 carbon atom.The results of Yukawa-Tsuno equation (13), also indicate that the magnitude of ‘r’ is very low (< 1).
C6 – Carbon atom
The chemical shift of C6 carbon atom appeared over a relatively narrow range of 7.15 ppm. The results of SSP analysis shown in table (4), excellent correlation afford by σp+ constant given in equation (14).
The results of DSP analysis in table (5), afford an excellent correlation are shown in equations (15) and (16).
The sign of ρIandρRarepositive reveals that the normal substituent effect operates on C6 carbon atom, i.e., an electron withdrawing substituent decrease the C7 carbon atom shielding and an electron releasing substituent increase it. Examination of chemical shift data in table (2), electron withdrawing substituent causes downfield shift and electron releasing substituent causes upfield. The magnitude of ρRgreater thanρIindicate that the predominance of resonance effect over inductive effect in the chemical shift of C6 carbon atom.
The sign of slopes ρI and ρR are positive reveals that the normal substituent effects operate on C22’ carbon atom. The magnitude of ρRis higher than the magnitude of ρIindicate that the resonance effect is predominant over resonance effect on C22’ carbon atom. The TSP analysis of Charton steric parameter (ν) gave poor correlations that are given in table (7).

“n=6 means calculated without -OH group”
The best fit of TSP analysis is taken from high correlation coefficient (R) and least standard error (SE) of the regression equation and the results are given in Eqs. (30) and (31).
A better description of the composition of the electrical effect33 is given by the equation,
PR = ![]()
PR is the percentage of delocalized effect. The result of TSP analysis is given in table (10) shows that the delocalized effect is predominant over the localized effect. The magnitude (%) of the steric factor33 is given by the equation,
PS = ![]()
The results of table (7) shows that steric effect is also operating to some extent.
CONCLUSIONS:
A series of seven numbers of substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids have been synthesized by condensation of barbituric acid with substituted benzaldehydes. These synthesized substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids have been characterized bythe1H and13C spectral data. The 13C NMR spectral data of these substituted 5-benzylidenebarbituric acids have been correlated with Hammett substituent constants and F and R parameters. From the results of statistical analysis, the effects of the substituent on the spectral data have been studied. The 13C NMR spectral correlations produced the most number of satisfactory correlations.
