Chemistry of amidines. Part 1. Determination of the site of initial protonation in N′-pyridylformamidines

Abstract

A series of substituted N,N-dimethyl-N′-pyridylformamidines has been synthesised and the pKa values of the conjugate acids have been measured in water at 25 °C. Consideration of the pka values shows that initial protonation is predominantly on the imino nitrogen of the amidine system rather than on the pyridyl nitrogen. The effect of the protonation on the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the amidines is discussed.
