J. Sitkowski et al., A SOLUTION AND SOLID-STATE N-15 NMR-STUDY OF HYDROGEN-BONDING IN A SCHIFFS BASE, Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, 7(2), 1996, pp. 83-84
The N-15 results reveal a difference in the extent of intramolecular h
ydrogen bond formation exhibited by the Schiffs base, compound 2, in s
olution and the solid state. Comparison of the N-15 shielding changes
observed, with those arising from protonation, provides the basis for
a quantitative estimate of the strength of the hydrogen bonds formed.
