Abstract
The 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy free radical (TEMPO) was used as a probe to study the changes in hydrogen bonding between the pheno lic OH group and the ON group of the radical by means of NMR and EPR. C-13 NMR contact shifts induced by TEMPO were measured for five phenol s. Formation of intermolecular hydrogen bond between a phenol and TEMP O molecule causes noticeable increase of N-14 hyperfine coupling const ant in the radical and appearance of negative spin density on carbon n uclei of C-OH fragment in the phenol.
