1 are quite sensitiveto the nature of the solvent and, in general, the less polar solvents are associated with larger differential shifts. Formost experiments, the proportions of proton donor to 1 were kept< 1: 1with the hope of maximizing the shift differences through taking advantage of possible differences in the association equilibrium constants. In most cases, however, the degree of NMR nonequivalence of the nitrogens increased when more proton donor was added. The splittings were also found to increase with decreasing temperature. When (ft)(+)-3, 3, 3-trifluoro-2-methoxy-2-phenylpropionic acid (2) is the complexing agent, 6 a shift difference between the nitrogens of the enantiomers in dichloromethane of 0.70 ppm was observed, and this difference, as expected, disappeared when racemic 2 was used in place of (/?)-(+)-2 and the average surroundings of each enantiomer of 1 become identical. The NMR nonequivalence of the nitrogens of the enantio-mers in the presence of/3-cyclodextrin hydrate in dimethyl sulfoxide solution is interesting because dimethyl sulfoxide is an excellent hydrogen-bond acceptor and would be expected to saturate the hydrogen-bond-donating powers of the/3-cy-clodextrin. Perhaps with this combination there is some tendency for preferential insertion of the phenyl ring of one of the enantiomers of 1 into the chiral void of the/3-cyclodextrin. The origin (s) of the shift differences produced by com-plexing optically active acids with 1 is uncertain. The NMR of the X2HCH2C6H5 moiety of 1 indicates a strong preference for one rotational conformation at the C-8-C-9 bond which, from inspection of models, almost certainly has the benzyl group oppositeto the pyridine ring. 7 With a carboxylic acid having a chiral center at the a carbon, the diastereomeric centers would be rather far apart in a hydrogen-bonded com-plex. Nonetheless, if the benzyl group is in essentially a single conformation, there will be a substantial molecular dissym-metry extending away fromthe chiral center. The total change of 23.6-67 ppm in l5N NMR shift when 1 is complexed with carboxylic acids (see Table I) is pretty muchin the range ex-pected for hydrogen bonding to pyridine, 3· 8 and probably represents only a small degree of actual proton transfer and ion-pair formation.
