Notes:
The overlapping spin systems in the 220 MHz 1H spectra of 1-methylfluorene (1) in carbon disulphide and deuteriated chloroform solutions have been analysed separately and refined by LAOCOON with the aid of methyl- and methylene-decoupled spectra. Ortho-coupling constants in the 6-membered rings are similar to each other and to those in fluorene (4). Solvent and concentration shifts suggest loose pairing of solute molecules. 220 MHz 1H spectra of α-truxene (2) in carbon tetrachloride and deuteriated nitrobenzene, 220 MHz 1H spectra of decacyclene (3) in carbon tetrachloride, and 90 MHz FT 1H spectra of 3 in deuteriated chloroform show steric deshielding; the solvent dependence of shifts also suggests solute pairing in 2. Shifts in 1H decoupled 22.6 MHz 13C spectra of 2 in deuteriated chloroform were assigned with the aid of Cr(acac)3 relaxation agent.
