The 13C n.m.r. chemical shifts for cholesterol in five solvents are reported. All carbon atoms were subject to solvent effects of varying sign and magnitude. The chemical shifts in the solvent pair dioxane–chloroform 1:1 could be predicted on an additivity basis. Pyridine was studied in 24 solvents; the chemical shifts of all carbons were solvent-dependent. Solvent effects at positions β and γ were correlated, while those at position α bore no simple relation to those of the other carbons. A small isotope effect was noted on comparing the data for H2O and 2H2O. Coupling between 13C and 14N was observed in some cases; its magnitude was solvent-dependent. Uridine was studied in four solvents. While all carbons were subject to solvent-induced shifts, evidence for specific solvent interaction at C-4, -5, -1′, and -2′ was obtained. An appreciable contribution to the relaxation of carbonyl C-2 and -4 from dipole–dipole interaction with the hydrogen on N-3 was observed. Solvent effects can result in scrambling and misassignment of 13C resonances if care is not taken with choice of solvent.

The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of a series of substituted benzalmalononitriles were examined in various solvents. The chemical shifts for the olefinic protons are susceptible to large solvent effects which are interpreted as arising from association of a solvent molecule with the olefinic proton (acetone) or a site in its vicinity (benzene). With acetone this leads to a downfield shift from values observed in chloroform. In benzene solution the association produces increased shielding and is present in addition to a second solvation complex, the arrangement of which is governed by the substituent. The difference in behavior of the ethylenic proton in benzalmalononitriles from the formyl proton in benzaldehyde is ascribed to its more highly acidic nature.

The 13C n.m.r. spectrum of acetoxime has been obtained in five representative solvents and the chemical shifts of the three carbon atoms measured. The solvent effects on the chemical shifts are found to reflect specific solute–solvent interactions. The effect of deuteration of the α-protons on the chemical shift of the oximino carbon is also discussed.

The 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of 17 3,6-disubstituted pyridazine derivatives have been systematically analyzed. Chemical shifts and various 13C, 1H coupling constants are reported. Attempts were made to correlate these data with results obtained from semiempirical molecular orbital calculations as well as with substituent electronegativities and Taft's substituent constants σI and σR0. Key words: 3,6-disubstituted pyridazines, 13C NMR spectroscopy, 13C, 1H spin coupling constants.

The 31P nmr spectra of the compounds cis-[M(CH3)(L)diphos]PF6, where M = Pd, Pt; L = 4-C5H4NX; X = CH3, H, NMe2, COOMe, COMe, CN; diphos = 1,2-bisdiphenylphosphino ethane, have been recorded. The 31P chemical shifts and 31P–195Pt coupling constants decrease regularly as the ρ values of the substituent on pyridine decrease. These trends are attributed to decreasing lone pair donation from phosphorus as the electron donating ability of the other ligands on the metal increases. The trans influence of the coordinated pyridine molecule, as measured by J(195Pt–31P), is greater than its cis influence on the phosphorus atoms.

High resolution 13C CPMAS spectra for three configurationally isomeric dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 ethers and three complexes derived therefrom are presented. Spectra are consistent with conformationally locked crown ether structures at 298 K. Data are discussed in terms of the symmetry properties of the macrocycles and stereochemical effects on 13C chemical shifts in the solid phase. For the complex of 18-crown-6 with NaSCN and H2O, a single line is observed at 298 K. Temperature reduction removes the chemical shift averaging as the different torsional angles of the solid crown ether undergo distortions that become slow on the nuclear magnetic resonance timescale.

The 13Cmr spectra of 21-haloprogesterones have been assigned, and chemical shifts compared with those of simple α-haloketones. In addition, the 13Cmr spectra of some C-5α and C-6β halosteroids are presented, and long range 13C—19F coupling observed between C-19 and the C-6β fluorine in some cases. The spectra of several oxygenated analogues and of a series of 5α-hydroxy-6-ketosteroids are also discussed.

Abstract The 13C-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectra of xanthine, 1,3-dimethyl-xanthine (theophylline), 3,7-dimethyl xanthine (theobromine) and 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine (caffeine) were obtained and the lines assigned. Protonation-and N-Methylation parameters are derived by comparison of the 13C-chemical shifts of the protonated cations with those of the neutral molecules and also with those of the xanthine cation. The shifts are discussed in terms of variations in the shielding at the different C-atoms induced by N-methylation and protonation. Approximate correlations are found between the 13C-chemical shifts and the π-electron densities at the C-atoms
