Interactions of coumarins with a lanthanide shift reagent: determination of substitution pattern
Abstract
The effects of Eu(fod)3 on the 1H n.m.r. spectra of 22 coumarins with alkyl, alkoxy, furano, and pyrano substituents and of coumarin itself have been studied, and a method for obtaining information on the substitution pattern of the coumarins has been developed.
