(1)H, (13)C and (15)N NMR spectral assignments for new triazapentalene derivatives.

Mesomeric heteropentalene betaines are conjugated fused polyheterocyclic structures that represent interesting intermediates for organic synthesis. Five such structures, containing at least four nitrogen atoms and various substituents, have been characterized by (1)H, (13)C and (15)N NMR. We report, apparently for the first time, nitrogen NMR data and coupling information on such systems.
