Abstract
The predominant tautomer form of 5-ethoxycarbonyl-substituted 1-hydroxyimidazoles (exhibiting antiviral activity towards orthopoxviruses) in a solution of aprotic DMSO-d6 has been elucidated from the data of 1Н and 13С NMR spectroscopy in comparison with model structures. The IR spectra (KBr pellets) have been considered. It has been shown that 1-hydroxyimidazoles 3а, 3b predominantly exist as N-hydroxy tautomers in the solution, forming crystal hydrates in the solid state, in which water favors the shift of the tautomeric equilibrium towards the N-oxide.
期刊介绍:
Russian Journal of General Chemistry is a journal that covers many problems that are of general interest to the whole community of chemists. The journal is the successor to Russia’s first chemical journal, Zhurnal Russkogo Khimicheskogo Obshchestva (Journal of the Russian Chemical Society ) founded in 1869 to cover all aspects of chemistry. Now the journal is focused on the interdisciplinary areas of chemistry (organometallics, organometalloids, organoinorganic complexes, mechanochemistry, nanochemistry, etc.), new achievements and long-term results in the field. The journal publishes reviews, current scientific papers, letters to the editor, and discussion papers.
