Here we show that amides of bicyclic 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane are intrinsically nitrogen-pyramidal. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction structures of some relevant bicyclic amides, including the prototype N-benzoyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, exhibited nitrogen-pyramidalization in the solid state. We evaluated the rotational barriers about the amide bonds of various N-benzoyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes in solution. The observed reduction of the rotational barriers of the bicyclic amides, as compared with those of the monocyclic pyrrolidine amides, is consistent with a nitrogen-pyramidal structure of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane amides in solution. A good correlation was found between the magnitudes of the rotational barrier of N-benzoyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes bearing para-substituents on the benzoyl group and the Hammett's σp+ constants, and this is consistent with the similarity of the solution structures. Calculations with the density functional theory reproduced the nitrogen-pyramidal structures of these bicyclic amides as energy minima. The calculated magnitudes of electron delocalization from the nitrogen nonbonding nN orbital to the carbonyl π* orbital of the amide group evaluated by application of the bond model theory correlated well with the rotational barriers of a variety of amides, including amides of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane. The nonplanarity of the amide nitrogen of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes would be derived from nitrogen-pyramidalization due to the CNC angle strain and twisting of the amide bond due to the allylic strain.
