High-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with information on chemical shifts and J-coupling constants is a sensitive tool for studying physical, chemical, and biological properties of materials at the molecular level. In this paper, a pulse sequence is developed for acquiring high-resolution NMR spectra of liquid samples with J-scaling in inhomogeneous fields via two-dimensional intermolecular multiple-quantum coherence acquisitions. In the resulting one-dimensional projection spectra, apparent J-coupling constants were obtained with a scaling factor theoretically varying from zero (completely decoupled) to infinity relative to the original J-coupling constants while retaining information on chemical shifts, relative peak areas, and multiplet patterns. This allows either an accurate measurement of small J-coupling constants of weakly coupled spin systems or less crowded spectra for spin systems with J-splitting. Experimental observations and simulation results agree with theoretical analysis.

The conformations that amino acids can adopt in the random coil state are of fundamental interest in the context of protein folding research and studies of protein–peptide interactions. To date, no detailed quantitative data from experimental studies have been reported; only nuclear magnetic resonance parameters such as chemical shifts and J coupling constants have been reported. These experimental nuclear magnetic resonance data represent averages over multiple conformations, and hence they do not provide unique structural information. I have performed relatively long (2.5 ns) molecular dynamics simulations of Gly-X-Gly tripeptides, surrounded by explicit water molecules, where X represents eight different amino acids with long side chains. From the trajectories one can calculate time averaged backbone chemical shifts and 3JNHα coupling constants and compare these with experimental data. These calculated quantities are quite close to the experimental values for most amino acids, suggesting that these simulations are a good model for the random coil state of the tripeptides. On the basis of my simulations I predict 3Jαβ coupling constants and present dihedral distributions for the Φ, Ψ, as well as χ1 and χ2 angles. Finally, I present correlation plots for these dihedral angles.Key words: molecular dynamics (MD), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, J-coupling, chemical shift, dihedral probability distribution.

A detailed study has been made of both the 1H and 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectra of a series of hexopyranosyl fluoride derivatives. Some of the 1H spectra were measured at 220 MHz. The 1H spectral parameters define both the configuration and the conformation of each of these derivatives. Study of the 19F n.m.r. parameters revealed several stereospecific dependencies. The 19F chemical shifts depend upon, (a) the orientation of the fluorine substituent with respect to the pyranose ring and, (b) the relative orientation of other substituents attached to the ring; for acetoxy substituents, these configurational dependencies appear to be additive. The vicinal19F–1H coupling constants exhibit a marked angular dependence for which Jtrans = ca. 24 Hz whilst Jgauche = 1.0 to 1.5 Hz for [Formula: see text] and 7.5 to 12.6 Hz for [Formula: see text] The geminal19F–1H couplings depend on the orientation of the substituent at C-2; when this substituent is equatorial JF,H is ca. 53.5 Hz and when it is axial the value is ca. 49 Hz.

Detailed studies, by 1H and 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, of a series of fully esterified pentopyranosyl fluorides, show that all such derivatives favor that conformer in which the fluorine substituent is axially oriented. This conclusion is supported by separate considerations of the vicinal and geminal19F–1H and 1H–1H coupling constants, of the long-range (4J) 1H–1H and 19F–1H coupling constants and of the 19F chemical shifts. The limitations of the above conformational model are discussed.

Deuterium isotope effects on the 31P shielding constants and spin–spin coupling constants in the isoelectronic series, PH2−, PH3, PH4+, are examined. Also, deuterium isotope effects on the nuclear magnetic resonance parameters of SnH3− are examined and compared with our earlier results on SnH4 and SnH3+. The experimental results are analyzed using the models of Jameson and Osten. In each isoelectronic series it is found that the isotope effects on the heavy atom chemical shifts are largest for the negatively charged ions and essentially zero for the positively charged ions, as predicted by recent molecular orbital calculations. The primary isotope effects on J(A,H) are positive for all species containing lone-pair electrons, otherwise Δp1J(A,H) is negative. The primary and secondary isotope effects on J(Sn,H) in the SnH3− ion are the largest reported to date.

Some general properties of ABCX -type spectra are discussed. It is shown that it is possible to deduce from such spectra the relative signs of all inter-nuclear coupling constants. Analyses are presented of the hydrogen (proton) spectra from the vinyl groups of vinyl fluoride and 3-methylbut-l-ene, and of the fluorine spectrum of the former molecule. It is shown that all HF coupling constants in vinyl fluoride are of the same sign as the cis and trans HH coupling constants.
