The need for further spectroscopic characterization of apo-compounds of type 1 is discussed and details of proton magnetic resonance (p.m.r.) and optical rotatory dispersion (o.r.d.) spectra are given. Analysis of these spectra is relevant to the assignment of structure to the recently isolated thomasic acid and also reveals unusual conformational features in compounds of this group.

epi-Progoitrin, the major thioglucoside of Crambe abyssinica seed, is cleaved by ferrous salts to yield (S)-1-cyano-2-hydroxy-3-butene and (S)-3-hydroxypent-4-enethionamide. The products are the same whether obtained from the purified thioglucoside or from the seed meal. Identical behavior was observed for seed meal of Brassica napus, which gave corresponding derivatives of the opposite configuration. Optical rotatory dispersion and proton magnetic resonance studies suggest the existence of solvent-dependent differences in rotamer composition for the 3-hydroxypent-4-enethionamides.
