K. Takegoshi et K. Hikichi, TAUTOMERIC PROTON-TRANSFER OF TROPOLONE INCLUDED IN ALPHA-CYCLODEXTRINS AND BETA-CYCLODEXTRINS, Journal of the American Chemical Society, 115(21), 1993, pp. 9747-9749
C-13 MAS NMR spectra of tropolone included in alpha- and beta-cyclodex
trins are observed at various temperatures in order to study tautomeri
c proton transfer. The activation energy for tautomeric proton transfe
r is <39 and 50.5 kJ/mol for tropolone in alpha- and beta-cyclodextrin
s, respectively. Kinetic solid-state effects on the tautomeric proton
transfer in tropolone are examined.
