The Synthesis of Specifically and Selectively Deuteriated 4,4'-Bisalkoxyazoxybenzene Derivatives

In connection with deuterium n.m.r. studies of molecular motion in liquid crystals we have developed a number of methods for the synthesis of selectively deuteriated 4,4'-bisalkoxyazoxybenzenes.This paper is concerned with (i) the labelling of specific methylene segments of the alkoxy-chains, (ii) the labelling of the aromatic nucleus, and (iii) the selective enrichment of the deuterium content of one alkoxy-chain relative to the other.Our studies of the n.m.r. spectra of these liquid crystals have shown that there is not (as has sometimes been supposed) a monotonic decrease in C-D quadrupole splitting in passing from the oxygen to the CD3 end of the alkoxy-chain.In -PAA (p-azoxyanisole) we have also shown that the smaller splitting is associated with the CD3O group nearest to the NO end of azoxy-group.Whereas the photorearrangement of azoxy-compounds is normally regiospecific, the photorearrangement of PAA selectively deuteriated in one methoxy-group is unusual in that it leads to isotopically scrambled products.
