## Abstract

The complete1H and 13C NMR assignment of new 1,3-oxazepane-4,7-dione compounds has been obtained using one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques including COSY, HMQC, and HMBC experiments. The data deduced from this study show that the alkyl chain and the phenyl ring are in different planes compared to the oxazepine ring.

## Body

## 1. Introduction

“Oxazepine” refers to any seven-membered ring containing an oxygen and nitrogen atom. The 1,3-oxazepine is a branch of many types of the heterocyclic oxazepine [1–7]. The core structure of 1,3-oxazepane-4,7diones consists of a seven-memebred ring along with two carbonyl group. Over the years, the syntheses of oxazepine derivatives have been investigated and documented. The result is important of heterocyclic compounds having significant biological uses [8–13]. Recently, we prepared a variety of 1,3-oxazepinediones in order to study the spectroscopic and liquid crystal properties [14]. In this paper, we present the structural elucidation by 1D and 2D NMR experiments of 3-alkyl-2-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3-oxazepane-4,7-diones with general formula(HOC6H4)CONCnH2n+1CH-CH(CO)2 (where n=2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18). Here, the hydroxyphenyl and the terminal alkyl chain are attached to the oxazepane ring.

### 3.1. 1D and 2D1H NMR Spectral Assignment

A complete assignment for the title compounds can be given based on the representative compound18oxa (Figure 1). The 1H NMR spectra of 2oxa–18oxa shows three different regions of chemical shift. The signals of the aromatic proton, which appear as a doublet in the region of δ=7.05–7.14 ppm is assigned to the H4 proton, while a doublet in the range of δ=6.64–6.94 ppm attributed to H6. The singlet in the region of δ=7.10–7.24 ppm is due to the H2 proton. The triplet in the region δ=7.24–7.45 ppm can be ascribed to the H5 proton. The protons (H2, H4, H5, and H6) are found to be nonequivalent. The hydroxyl proton appears as a singlet at δ=9.19–9.94 ppm. 1H NMR spectra of all these compounds show two two-proton triplets in the high field region of about δ=2.21–2.35 ppm and 2.40–2.48 ppm due to the heterocyclic ring protons H9 and H10, respectively. The chemical shift of the H7 proton is a singlet in the range of δ=7.56–7.93 ppm. The alkyl group shows four signals and a quintet in the range of δ=1.71–1.76 ppm. This quintet is attributed to the H13. The two triplets in the range of δ=0.85–0.94 ppm and δ=3.01–3.22 ppm can be assigned to the methyl protons (Hy) and the methylene protons (H12), respectively. The signals of the alkyl protons from H14 to H27 are confirmed by multiplets in the range of δ=1.23–1.30 ppm.Figure 1
Molecular structure with numbering scheme for compound18oxa.The assignments of the1H NMR spectra of these compounds were aided by 2D COSY experiments. The COSY experiments further substantiated the correlation between the equivalent proton pairs with the adjacent protons, wherein the cross peak resulting from these correlations appear at the same region. A typical COSY spectrum of the 1H-1H connectivities in6oxa is shown in Figure 2. At the upper field, H9 in heterocyclic ring correlated with the proton H10 in the same ring observed as triplets at δ=2.27 and 2.41 ppm, respectively. The quintet at δ=1.71 ppm is assigned to H13 proton which correlated with the multiplets at δ=1.30 ppm. A similar phenomenon can also be found for Hx at δ=1.32 ppm which correlated with Hy at δ=0.86 ppm. However, the H14 to H27 protons for compounds (8oxa to18oxa) exhibit complexity which cannot be resolved using homonuclear decoupling. The COSY correlation also reveals that the NMR signal of proton H5 at δ=7.38 ppm had correlated with the NMR signal of aromatic protons H4 (δ=7.14) and H6 (δ=6.68) ppm, respectively. In the same way, the aromatic proton (H2) in the region of δ=7.12 ppm was found to be not correlated with any other aromatic protons. However, COSY data also reveals that the (OH) proton at δ=9.23 ppm was found to be correlated with the signal assigned to the singlet in the region of δ=7.12 ppm but not with doublet assigned at δ=7.14 ppm (H4). This result helps to show the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group is not coplanar with the phenyl ring. Select relationship for compound 6oxa was shown in Figure 3.1H-1H connectiveities in the COSY spectra with select relationship for compound 6oxa.

### 3.2.13C NMR and 2D Spectral Assignment

Compounds2oxa–18oxa were also characterized by 13C NMR and DEPT135 for the protonated carbons which are governed by the additive rules and substitution effect. The 13C NMR spectra of these compounds were all similar. Two downfield signals observed at δ=171.54–172.35 ppm and δ=174.64–176.70 ppm are attributed to the carbonyl carbons (C8 and C11) of the seven-membered ring. However, the highfield signal in the region of δ=13.80–15.03 ppm is assigned for Cy of the methyl in the alkyl chain. The signals in the range of δ=39.36–40.15 ppm, 29.60–30.85 ppm, 26.40–34.93 ppm, and 22.50–23.12 ppm are attributed to the respective C12, C13, C14 to C25, and Cx in the aliphatic chain. In addition to the aliphatic carbons, the signal for C9 and C10 of the seven-membered ring appear in the range of δ=27.20–28.80 ppm and δ=29.50–29.98 ppm, respectively. The signal in the region of δ=67.56–70.58 ppm is attributed to C7. The resonance due to the aromatic carbon at δ=137.16–138.74, 114.10–115.80, 119.42–122.49, 130.18–132.66, and 121.12–123.05 ppm are assigned to C1, C2, C4, C5, and C6. The 13C NMR signal for C3 (δ=158.43–161.06 ppm) showed comparatively downfield shift as compared to the other phenyl carbons in all the title compounds due to adjacent to hydroxyl group. The only difference observed was the increase in the number of aliphatic carbon signals by two each time when compound 2oxa to 18oxawas analyzed.The HMQC spectra of all the compounds were recorded, and the chemical shifts are assigned. The HMQC spectra provide information regarding the through bond connection between the protons and the carbon atoms to which they are directly attached. The data of compound18oxa are discussed as an example. The HMQC experiment enabled the assignment of the one-bond connectivity in the proton singlet at δ=7.21 ppm, which correlated with carbon signal at δ=115.54 ppm, a doublet at δ=7.08 ppm with the methine at δ=121.91 ppm, the triplet at δ=7.38 ppm with the signal at δ=131.13 ppm, and the doublet at δ=6.94 ppm shows the correlation with the signal at δ=122.65. The signals were observed at δ=27.23 ppm and 29.51 ppm which are assigned to carbon atoms in the heterocyclic ring (C9 and C10) due to its interaction with proton resonances at δ=2.28 ppm and 2.41 ppm. The proton singlet for H7 at δ=7.91 ppm is correlated with the carbon signal δ=69.21 ppm. At upper field, we were able to assign the three proton triplet at δ=0.86 ppm which correlated with the carbon signal at δ=14.89 ppm, and also a signal at δ=1.28 ppm correlated with the carbon signal at δ=22.90 ppm. In the same way, the multiplets of the aliphatic proton signal at δ=1.23 ppm is correlated with the carbon signals at δ=27.80 ppm to 33.87 ppm.As for the HMBC spectra, the assignment for the carbon nuclei can also be supported by long-range connectivities. The HMBC spectra of compounds help to observe the correlation of aromatic quaternary carbon and its neighboring proton. In addition, the HMBC experiment allowed the assignment of the aromatic nonprotonated and protonated carbons. For example, in16oxaFigure 4, the proton singlet at δ=7.24 ppm correlated through 2J bond with the aromatic carbons at δ=137.16 and 158.82 ppm, respectively, and with the aromatic carbon at δ=122.95 ppm via 3J, while it also correlated with the aromatic carbon at δ=132.66 ppm through 4J. Finally, the long-range connectivities through intramolecular interaction (intraJ) of this proton correlate with the carbon at δ=39.90 ppm. Likewise, the doublet at δ=7.11 ppm which was assigned to the H4 proton is correlated through 2J, 3J, and 4J with the respective aromatic carbons at δ=132.66 ppm, 122.95 ppm, and 137.16 ppm. The one proton doublet at δ=6.92 ppm was also shown to be correlated with the carbons at δ=132.66 ppm, 120.49 ppm, 69.86 ppm, and 158.82 ppm through the long-range connectivities via 2J, 3J, and 4J, respectively. The aromatic proton, observed as a triplet at δ=7.36 ppm was correlated with the aromatic carbons at δ=120.49, 122.95 ppm, 137.16 ppm, and 115.49 ppm through the respective long-range connectivities of 2J, 3J, and 4J. The spectrum also allowed the assignment of the protons of the heterocyclic ring which was observed as a triplet at δ=2.29 ppm which correlated with the carbonyl carbon at δ=171.56 ppm and with the carbon at δ=29.56 ppm through the long-range connectivity 2J. It also correlated with the carbon signal at δ=174.71 through the long range connectivity 3J. In the same way the triplet of the seven-membered ring at δ=2.42 ppm, is correlated with the carbon at δ=27.25 ppm and the carbonyl carbon at δ=174.71 ppm through 2J. Furthermore, the singlet at δ=7.92 ppm which was assigned for proton H7 was observed to correlate with the aromatic carbon at δ=137.16 ppm through 2J, with the carbons at δ=171.56 ppm and 39.90 ppm through 3J, and finally with the carbon at δ=29.96 ppm through the long-range connectivity 4J.Long range C-H correlations in the HMBC spectra of compound16oxa.

(a)(b)(c)(d)(e)The aliphatic chain protons is assigned from the triplet atδ=3.01 ppm which correlated with carbon at δ=29.96 through 2J, with carbons at δ=69.86and 27.44 ppm through 3J, and with the aromatic carbon at δ=137.16 ppm through 4J. It also correlated with the aromatic carbon at δ=122.95 ppm and the carbonyl carbon which was located at δ=171.56 ppm through long-range connectivities (intraJ). Additional correlation for the aliphatic protons were detected from the observed triplet at δ=0.85 ppm which was assigned to the Hy protons with the carbon at δ=22.95 ppm, with the carbon at δ=33.57 ppm, and with carbon at δ=31.19 ppm in the respective, long-range connectivities 2J, 3J, and 4J. These data help to confirm the correlation between the proton signal at δ=1.30 ppm with the carbon signals at δ=14.76 ppm and 33.57 ppm, 31.19 ppm and 31.30 ppm through the long-range connectivities 2J, 3J, and 4J, respectively.Selected intramolecular through bond connectivities from HMBC spectrum for compound16oxa is shown in Figure 5.Figure 5

## 3.1. 1D and 2D1H NMR Spectral Assignment

A complete assignment for the title compounds can be given based on the representative compound18oxa (Figure 1). The 1H NMR spectra of 2oxa–18oxa shows three different regions of chemical shift. The signals of the aromatic proton, which appear as a doublet in the region of δ=7.05–7.14 ppm is assigned to the H4 proton, while a doublet in the range of δ=6.64–6.94 ppm attributed to H6. The singlet in the region of δ=7.10–7.24 ppm is due to the H2 proton. The triplet in the region δ=7.24–7.45 ppm can be ascribed to the H5 proton. The protons (H2, H4, H5, and H6) are found to be nonequivalent. The hydroxyl proton appears as a singlet at δ=9.19–9.94 ppm. 1H NMR spectra of all these compounds show two two-proton triplets in the high field region of about δ=2.21–2.35 ppm and 2.40–2.48 ppm due to the heterocyclic ring protons H9 and H10, respectively. The chemical shift of the H7 proton is a singlet in the range of δ=7.56–7.93 ppm. The alkyl group shows four signals and a quintet in the range of δ=1.71–1.76 ppm. This quintet is attributed to the H13. The two triplets in the range of δ=0.85–0.94 ppm and δ=3.01–3.22 ppm can be assigned to the methyl protons (Hy) and the methylene protons (H12), respectively. The signals of the alkyl protons from H14 to H27 are confirmed by multiplets in the range of δ=1.23–1.30 ppm.Figure 1

The COSY experiments further substantiated the correlation between the equivalent proton pairs with the adjacent protons, wherein the cross peak resulting from these correlations appear at the same region. A typical COSY spectrum of the 1H-1H connectivities in6oxa is shown in Figure 2. At the upper field, H9 in heterocyclic ring correlated with the proton H10 in the same ring observed as triplets at δ=2.27 and 2.41 ppm, respectively. The quintet at δ=1.71 ppm is assigned to H13 proton which correlated with the multiplets at δ=1.30 ppm. A similar phenomenon can also be found for Hx at δ=1.32 ppm which correlated with Hy at δ=0.86 ppm. However, the H14 to H27 protons for compounds (8oxa to18oxa) exhibit complexity which cannot be resolved using homonuclear decoupling. The COSY correlation also reveals that the NMR signal of proton H5 at δ=7.38 ppm had correlated with the NMR signal of aromatic protons H4 (δ=7.14) and H6 (δ=6.68) ppm, respectively. In the same way, the aromatic proton (H2) in the region of δ=7.12 ppm was found to be not correlated with any other aromatic protons. However, COSY data also reveals that the (OH) proton at δ=9.23 ppm was found to be correlated with the signal assigned to the singlet in the region of δ=7.12 ppm but not with doublet assigned at δ=7.14 ppm (H4). This result helps to show the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group is not coplanar with the phenyl ring.

## 3.2.13C NMR and 2D Spectral Assignment

Compounds2oxa–18oxa were also characterized by 13C NMR and DEPT135 for the protonated carbons which are governed by the additive rules and substitution effect. The 13C NMR spectra of these compounds were all similar. Two downfield signals observed at δ=171.54–172.35 ppm and δ=174.64–176.70 ppm are attributed to the carbonyl carbons (C8 and C11) of the seven-membered ring. However, the highfield signal in the region of δ=13.80–15.03 ppm is assigned for Cy of the methyl in the alkyl chain. The signals in the range of δ=39.36–40.15 ppm, 29.60–30.85 ppm, 26.40–34.93 ppm, and 22.50–23.12 ppm are attributed to the respective C12, C13, C14 to C25, and Cx in the aliphatic chain. In addition to the aliphatic carbons, the signal for C9 and C10 of the seven-membered ring appear in the range of δ=27.20–28.80 ppm and δ=29.50–29.98 ppm, respectively. The signal in the region of δ=67.56–70.58 ppm is attributed to C7. The resonance due to the aromatic carbon at δ=137.16–138.74, 114.10–115.80, 119.42–122.49, 130.18–132.66, and 121.12–123.05 ppm are assigned to C1, C2, C4, C5, and C6. The 13C NMR signal for C3 (δ=158.43–161.06 ppm) showed comparatively downfield shift as compared to the other phenyl carbons in all the title compounds due to adjacent to hydroxyl group. The only difference observed was the increase in the number of aliphatic carbon signals by two each time when compound 2oxa to 18oxawas analyzed.The HMQC spectra of all the compounds were recorded, and the chemical shifts are assigned. The HMQC spectra provide information regarding the through bond connection between the protons and the carbon atoms to which they are directly attached. The data of compound18oxa are discussed as an example. The HMQC experiment enabled the assignment of the one-bond connectivity in the proton singlet at δ=7.21 ppm, which correlated with carbon signal at δ=115.54 ppm, a doublet at δ=7.08 ppm with the methine at δ=121.91 ppm, the triplet at δ=7.38 ppm with the signal at δ=131.13 ppm, and the doublet at δ=6.94 ppm shows the correlation with the signal at δ=122.65. The signals were observed at δ=27.23 ppm and 29.51 ppm which are assigned to carbon atoms in the heterocyclic ring (C9 and C10) due to its interaction with proton resonances at δ=2.28 ppm and 2.41 ppm. The proton singlet for H7 at δ=7.91 ppm is correlated with the carbon signal δ=69.21 ppm. At upper field, we were able to assign the three proton triplet at δ=0.86 ppm which correlated with the carbon signal at δ=14.89 ppm, and also a signal at δ=1.28 ppm correlated with the carbon signal at δ=22.90 ppm. In the same way, the multiplets of the aliphatic proton signal at δ=1.23 ppm is correlated with the carbon signals at δ=27.80 ppm to 33.87 ppm.As for the HMBC spectra, the assignment for the carbon nuclei can also be supported by long-range connectivities. The HMBC spectra of compounds help to observe the correlation of aromatic quaternary carbon and its neighboring proton. In addition, the HMBC experiment allowed the assignment of the aromatic nonprotonated and protonated carbons. For example, in16oxaFigure 4, the proton singlet at δ=7.24 ppm correlated through 2J bond with the aromatic carbons at δ=137.16 and 158.82 ppm, respectively, and with the aromatic carbon at δ=122.95 ppm via 3J, while it also correlated with the aromatic carbon at δ=132.66 ppm through 4J. Finally, the long-range connectivities through intramolecular interaction (intraJ) of this proton correlate with the carbon at δ=39.90 ppm. Likewise, the doublet at δ=7.11 ppm which was assigned to the H4 proton is correlated through 2J, 3J, and 4J with the respective aromatic carbons at δ=132.66 ppm, 122.95 ppm, and 137.16 ppm. The one proton doublet at δ=6.92 ppm was also shown to be correlated with the carbons at δ=132.66 ppm, 120.49 ppm, 69.86 ppm, and 158.82 ppm through the long-range connectivities via 2J, 3J, and 4J, respectively. The aromatic proton, observed as a triplet at δ=7.36 ppm was correlated with the aromatic carbons at δ=120.49, 122.95 ppm, 137.16 ppm, and 115.49 ppm through the respective long-range connectivities of 2J, 3J, and 4J. The spectrum also allowed the assignment of the protons of the heterocyclic ring which was observed as a triplet at δ=2.29 ppm which correlated with the carbonyl carbon at δ=171.56 ppm and with the carbon at δ=29.56 ppm through the long-range connectivity 2J. It also correlated with the carbon signal at δ=174.71 through the long range connectivity 3J. In the same way the triplet of the seven-membered ring at δ=2.42 ppm, is correlated with the carbon at δ=27.25 ppm and the carbonyl carbon at δ=174.71 ppm through 2J. Furthermore, the singlet at δ=7.92 ppm which was assigned for proton H7 was observed to correlate with the aromatic carbon at δ=137.16 ppm through 2J, with the carbons at δ=171.56 ppm and 39.90 ppm through 3J, and finally with the carbon at δ=29.96 ppm through the long-range connectivity 4J.Long range C-H correlations in the HMBC spectra of compound16oxa.

(a)(b)(c)(d)(e)The aliphatic chain protons is assigned from the triplet atδ=3.01 ppm which correlated with carbon at δ=29.96 through 2J, with carbons at δ=69.86and 27.44 ppm through 3J, and with the aromatic carbon at δ=137.16 ppm through 4J. It also correlated with the aromatic carbon at δ=122.95 ppm and the carbonyl carbon which was located at δ=171.56 ppm through long-range connectivities (intraJ). Additional correlation for the aliphatic protons were detected from the observed triplet at δ=0.85 ppm which was assigned to the Hy protons with the carbon at δ=22.95 ppm, with the carbon at δ=33.57 ppm, and with carbon at δ=31.19 ppm in the respective, long-range connectivities 2J, 3J, and 4J. These data help to confirm the correlation between the proton signal at δ=1.30 ppm with the carbon signals at δ=14.76 ppm and 33.57 ppm, 31.19 ppm and 31.30 ppm through the long-range connectivities 2J, 3J, and 4J, respectively.Selected intramolecular through bond connectivities from HMBC spectrum for compound16oxa is shown in Figure 5.Figure 5

## 4. Conclusions

In this paper, we present some new heterocyclic compounds with 1,3-oxazepane cores. The detail NMR assignments of these compounds have been discussed by1H, 13C NMR, and DEPT135 spectra along with two-dimensional COSY, 1H- 13C HMQC, and HMBC spectra. Synthesis results of this work could be useful for other chemists working on the field of heterocyclic oxazepine.
