Abstract

Abstract: N-Ethyl-N-methyl-2-aminobutane (EMAB) is the simplest acyclic trialkylamine which possesses a chiral carbon bonded to a chiral nitrogen. The chiral carbon is configurationally stable, while the chiral nitrogen is configurationally labile via nitrogen inversion. The 'H dynamic NMR (DNMR) spectra of three selectively deuteriated derivatives of EMAB show a decoalescence into four subspectra with relative populations of 49%, 22 ...
