Abstract

[reaction: see text] Resonance-assisted intramolecular hydrogen bonding in both polar aprotic and nonpolar solutions of 4-(dimethylamino)-2'-hydroxychalcone (DMAHC) has been investigated by variable-temperature proton NMR spectroscopy. In both nonpolar and polar solvents, the signal for the phenolic hydrogen moves downfield as the temperature is lowered. In each solvent system studied, a linear relationship between chemical shift and temperature was observed.
