A 13C nmr investigation of the protonation in sulfuric acid of the aliphatic ketones MeCOR (R = Me, Et, i-Pr, tert-Bu), 3-pentanone, and the cyclic ketones from cyclobutanone through cyclooctanone is reported. With the exception of cyclobutanone which is considerably less basic, these ketones are all very similar in their basicity, with half-protonation in the region 73–78% H2SO4. The acidity dependence of the protonation is discussed; there appears to be a small dependence on molecular size. 13C nmr is shown to be a suitable alternative to 1H nmr in the study of the protonation of weak organic bases in strongly acidic solutions.

A full pH range 1H and 13C nmr study was performed of the complexation of UO22+ with malic acid, for variable concentrations and molar ratios. Spectral evidence for the existence of at least five complexes was found, and their stoichiometry and dependence on pH were investigated. Information on the conformation of the bound ligand molecules was also obtained.

Renewed interest in naturally occurring phenol sulfate ester salts has necessitated modem spectroscopic investigation of these compounds. Synthetic methods, plus spectroscopic (uv, ir, 1H nmr, 13C nmr), chromatographic, and electrophoretic properties are given for the potassium salts of phenyl sulfate (1), pyrocatechol disulfate (2), resorcinol disulfate (3), hydroquinone disulfate (4), phloroglucinol mono- (5), di- (6), and tri- (7) sulfates, and for the 2-sulfate (8) and 2,5-disulfate (9) of 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene (10). 13C nmr chemical shift effects resulting from the replacement of phenolic —OH with —OSO3K are reported. Spectroscopic properties of the related compounds 1,2,3-tribenzyloxybenzene (11), 2,6-dibenzyloxy-1,4-benzoquinone (12), 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (13), 1,3-dibenzyloxy-2,5-dihydroxybenzene (14), and of a tentatively identified 1,3-dibenzyloxy-2,5-dihydroxybenzene monoethyl ether (15) are available as supplementary material.

Experiments are described whose results indicate that semiquinones produced by intramolecular photoreduction of FMN in basic solution are responsible for specific line broadening observed in the 13C nmr spectrum. Tests with oxidizing agents as well as singlet and triplet quenchers are shown to support this theory rather than the proposition that the paramagnetic species effective in relaxation enhancement is a flavin triplet state. A mechanism for the production of semiquinones and their interaction with the FMN population is discussed.

<p>The construction of dihydroisoindolo[2,1-a]quinazoline-5,11-dione derivatives (4a–4m), by  the condensation isatoic anhydride, appropriate amines and 2-formylbenzoic acid by using silica sulfuric acid as catalyst was reported. These dihydroisoindolo[2,1-a]quinazoline-5,11-dione derivatives (DIQ) were identified as potent inhibitors of HBV capsid assembly. The newly synthesized dihydroisoindolo[2,1-a]quinazoline-5,11-dione derivatives 4a-4m were characterized by <sup>1</sup>H NMR, <sup>13</sup>C NMR, and Mass spectrum and evaluated for their anti-HBV activity. Majority of the synthesized compounds inhibited the expression of viral antigens at low concentration. But five compounds, 4a, 4b, 4c, 4f, and 4m were shown potent inhibition of HBV DNA replication at submicromolar range. Of these compounds, compound 4a was the most active when compared with lamivudine.</p><p> </p><p> </p>

The proton and carbon-13 resonance signals of carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine) were unambiguously assigned using a variety of nmr techniques including proton–carbon chemical shift correlations, titrations of nmr chemical shifts, coupling constants, and isotope shifts. From the 13C nmr titration, carnosine's three pKa values were estimated to be 2.7, 7.1, and 10.6, and it was found that the imidazole ring existed predominantly as the 3-H tautomer in basic solution. Conformational information about the Cα—Cβ bond and about the N—Cα bond was deduced from observed 3J(C,H) and 3J(H,H) values. The 13C nmr spectrum of carnosine in solution is also compared with that obtained for a solid sample.

Preparations of the thiophenophane and open chain thioether complexes MX2•BBTE(M = Pd; X = Cl, I)(M = Pt; X = Cl) (BBTE = 1,2-bis(benzylthio)ethane) and MX2•L (M = Pd; X = Cl, Br, I, SCN) (M = Pt; X = Cl) (L = 2,5,8-trithia[9](2,5)thiophenophane) are described. The molecular structure of PdBr2•L which contains a weak thiophene-sulfur-to-palladium interaction has been determined: space group P21/n, a = 8.3569(3), b = 16.3254(15), c = 11.1462(3) Å, β = 92.833(4)°, Z = 4, Rf = 0.060, Rw = 0.058. The electronic, low frequency ir, and 13C nmr spectra are described. Variable temperature 1H nmr spectra are discussed and it is concluded that the open chain complexes undergo rapid conformational exchange at room temperature but are configurationally rigid unless the temperature is increased. In contrast, the macrocyclic complexes undergo very limited conformational and no configurational exchange up to their decomposition temperatures. They are also nonfluxional in the same temperature range. Chemical exchange of acidic ligand hydrogens and a metal–ligand dissociative equilibrium were also detected when X = SCN. Keywords: thiophene, thioether, macrocyclic metal complexes.

A detailed nuclear magnetic resonance study of 4,6-dinitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole N-oxide (DNBF), which includes a 2D INADEQUATE analysis and experiments with samples 15N-labelled at the NO2 groups, is described. The results lead to an unambiguous assignment of the carbon and proton chemical shifts in various solvents. Some 1H and 13C data pertaining to 4,6-dinitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DNBZ), the deoxygenated analog of DNBF, are also reported, allowing the influence of the N-oxide group on the proton and carbon chemical shifts to be discussed. It is shown that all of the 1H nmr evidence so far reported for the characterization of DNBF σ adducts as arising from nucleophilic addition to the 7-position, i.e., as structure 2a, has no significance. That complexation actually occurs at this position is, however, convincingly demonstrated by 15N data. These also allow us to establish that this process is both kinetically and thermodynamically favored. Keywords: nitrobenzofuroxans, Meisenheimer complexes, 13C nmr of benzofuroxans, 2,1,3-benzoxadiazole N-oxides, nitrobenzofuroxan σ-adducts.

Alkylated pyrimidine nucleosides are of interest from the viewpoint of mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. 1H and 13C nmr data are presented for a series of 2′-deoxynucleosides methylated at the O2-, O4-, and N3-positions of the base, and discussed in terms of their physical properties. The pH dependence of the stability of the O2- and O4-methylated 2′-deoxyribosides as well as the corresponding ribosides was examined by 1H nmr and ultraviolet (uv) spectrophotometric methods.

The 13C nmr spectra of the naturally occurring stereoisomers of the tetrahydrofuran lignans were recorded and the signals assigned. Based on these assignments, on the observed sensitivity of the benzylic carbon shifts to the orientation of the aryl groups, and on the comparison with previously reported 1H nmr data, the most probable conformations for the mentioned stereoisomers are suggested.

AbstractPoly(N-acetyl)iminoethylene. poly(N-propionyl)iminoethylene and poly(N-acetyl)-2,2-dimethyliminoethylene were prepared by cationic polymerization in solution of 2-methyl- 2-oxazoline, 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline, and 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-oxazoline respectively. The 13C NMR spectra of the polymers obtained showed different sets of shifts for the carbon atoms of the backbone as well as for the N-acylimino side chain due to the restricted rotation of the Nacylimino group. The temperature dependence of the N-acylimino side chain signals showed a different coalescence behaviour depending on the substituents at both the main and the side chain.
