15N nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts are shown to be highly sensitive to site-selective diamagnetic metal ion binding for the nucleosides adenosine, cytidine, and guanosine. Conclusions regarding preferred complexation sites are compared with results derived from other physical measurements, and with expectations based on electron density calculations.

Diastereoisomeric 1,2-orthoacetates of D-mannose are formed under conditions of the Königs–Knorr synthesis. This is shown by the isolation of two crystalline isomers of β-D-mannose 1,2-(benzyl orthoacetate), and also by examination of the nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectra of several D-mannose orthoacetates. The diastereoisomers show notable differences in respective chemical shifts for the C-methyl and other protons and these variations, together with isomer-ratio data, suggest that the major isomer of a given pair possesses the configuration in which the C-methyl group is endo- and the OR group is exo-. On acid hydrolysis the orthoacetates yield mainly 2-O-acetyl-D-mannose, the structure of which is confirmed by n.m.r. spectral evidence.
