説明

<jats:p>Novel fluorinated <jats:italic>N</jats:italic><jats:sup>1</jats:sup>‐acylated 7‐azaindolines have been synthesized and their conformations analyzed by X‐ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopy: Unusual intramolecular interactions between the 7‐nitrogen and amide α‐hydrogen atoms were identified. The strength of these interactions correlate with the electron‐withdrawing character of the amide α substituents. A combination of experimental and computational approaches revealed a significant substituent effect when the substituent (H, OMe, F, CN) at the 4‐position of the 7‐azaindoline scaffold was varied. As these intramolecular interactions also occur in non‐fluorinated <jats:italic>N</jats:italic><jats:sup>1</jats:sup>‐acylated 7‐azaindolines and similar heterocycles, this study is relevant to medicinal chemistry: The results will facilitate the prediction of the predominant conformations of <jats:italic>N</jats:italic><jats:sup>1</jats:sup>‐acylated‐7‐azaindoline‐containing bioactive molecules and thus potentially contribute to drug discovery programs.</jats:p>
