ABSTRACT
A combination of charge density studies and solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) 1 JNC coupling measurements supported by periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations is used to characterise the transition from an n-π* interaction to bond formation between a nucleophilic nitrogen atom and an electrophilic sp2 carbon atom in a series of crystalline peri-substituted naphthalenes. As the Nâ
â
â
C distance reduces there is a sharp decrease in the Laplacian derived from increasing charge density between the two groups at ca. Nâ
â
â
C = 1.8â
Å, with the periodic DFT calculations predicting, and heteronuclear spin-echo NMR measurements confirming, the 1 JNC couplings of ≈3-6â
Hz for long C-N bonds (1.60-1.65â
Å), and 1 JNC couplings of <1â
Hz for Nâ

C >2.1â
Å.
