Abstract:
The (1)H and (13)C NMR spectral study of several biologically active derivatives of 8-quinolinol have been made through extensive NMR studies including homodecoupling and 2D-NMR experiments such as COSY-45°, NOESY, and HeteroCOSY. Electron donating resonance and electron withdrawing inductive effect of several groups showed marked changes in chemical shifts of nuclei at the seventh positions of O-substituted quinolinols (2-15). Although in N-alkyl, 8-alkoxyquinolinium halides (16-21), ring A rightly showed low frequency chemical shift values.
