摘要

The H-1, C-13, and N-15 NMR chemical shifts of ten 4-nitropyridine N-oxide derivatives are assigned. The shielding of the pyridine ring nitrogen is sensitive to ring substitution through inductive effects, steric effects by ortho-substituents, and the possibility for electron delocalisation (resonance energy). In solution, 3-ethylnitrosoamino-4-nitropyridine N-oxide has two tautomers. The proposed reason is the steric crowding between vicinal 4-nitro and 3-ethylnitrosoamino groups, causing a disturbance to amino nitrogen that can delocalize its lone pair to the oxygen atom of the nitroso group.
