Sažetak
The isomerization process, which is related to racemization of symmetrical 1, 2-bis(diaminomethyleneamino)benzenes (=bisguanidinobenzenes) with potential chirality, is caused by bond rotation of aryl– (diaminomethyleneamino) (=aryl– guanidinyl) bond and/or diaminomethylene– imino (=guanidinyl imine) bond. This process was evaluated by temperature-dependent 1H NMR experiments. The guanidinyl imine bond rotation, which is important for the early stage of the inhibition of racemization process, was not restricted by substitution at the ortho-position of the benzene core or alkylation of guanidine function, while protonation of ortho-substituted bisguanidinobenzenes increased the rotation barrier. Changing the guanidine function from cyclic to acyclic caused the rotation about both bonds to become restricted, which could be observed by temperature-dependent 1H NMR experiments.
