Popis: Conformational changes in N,N-diethyl-14-hydroxy-12,19-dimethoxypodocarpa-8,11,13-triene-13-carboxamide were studied by variable-temperature 1H and 13C NMR over the range 228–328 K using three hydrogen and six carbon indicator sites. The parameters ΔH≠ = 48.7±2.0 kJ mol−1, ΔS≠ = −23±7 J K mol−1 and ΔG298≠ = 55.6±4.3 kJ mol−1 were obtained, which were attributed to restricted rotation of the C-CONEt2 bond. Restricted C—N rotation was also detected for which the free energy of activation at 250 K was ca. 53 kJ mol−1. Hydrogen bonding of the carboxamide to the adjacent hydroxy group can account for the low value of the C—N activation energy.
