The high resolution 1H nmr spectra of the substituted flavine, 3-N-methyltetraacetylriboflavine (3-Me-TARF), and its non-aqueous solution complexes with Gd(fod)3, Eu(fod)3, MoCl4, and MoCl4•2CH3(CH2)2CN, were studied in order to try to discern the binding sites of the flavine as it attaches to the molybdenum. Evidence was found that all three metal atoms, Gd(III), Eu(III), and Mo(IV), are attached in solution not only by the primary binding (chelating) sites of the flavine, viz., the O-4 and N-5 atoms, but also by an acetyl oxygen atom, at the C-4′ site of the ribityl side chain. 300 MHz spectra of the 3-Me-TARF have permitted the coupling constants for the side chain methine and methylene protons to be obtained.

A series of derivatives with various oxygen functionalities in positions 17,22a or 19,20 was prepared from diene I and olefin XVI by addition and oxidation reactions. The structure of the obtained compounds was confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy. The kind of intramolecular association of the 17α-hydroxy group was studied in connection with modification of the side chain and substitution in position 22a. Complete assignment of the hydrogen signals and most of the coupling constants was accomplished using a combination of 1D and 2D NMR techniques. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra are discussed.

The octahedral anions [M(SnCl3)5Cl]4− (M = Ru, Os) have been fully characterized by 119Sn FT nmr spectroscopy. For M = Ru, 117Sn and 115Sn nmr spectra were also recorded, and an X-ray crystallographic study was carried out on the tetraethylammonium salt, isolated as a disolvate from acetonitrile. The Ru—Sn bond lengths indicate some degree of dπ–dπ interactions. The slight distortions from octahedral geometry are discussed in connection with the packing of the chlorine atoms. The Sn nmr spectra reveal the first observed coupling to a 99Ru nucleus (I = 5/2, 12.7% natural abundance), very large 2J(119Sn—117Sn) coupling constants, and the first observed second-order effects on a heteronuclear system. The octahedral anion [Ru(SnCl3)5(MeCN)]3− was also synthesized as the tetraethylammonium salt and characterized spectroscopically.

Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin has favorable biocompatibility, good bioactivity and controllable biodegradability, meeting the basic requirements of controlled drug release carriers. Enhancing the negative charge of silk fibroin could further increase the encapsulation and loading efficiency of positively charged drugs. In this study, Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin was chemically modified by methylglyoxal in aqueous solution. The electric charge properties of Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin were examined to characterize the modification, the results indicated that the isoelectric point of Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin decreased from 4.5 to 3.9, and the zeta potential reduced from-11.7 mV to-12.8 mV. Amino acid analysis and 1H-NMR spectra showed that arginine residue of Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin side chain was modified by methylglyoxal for enhancing negative charge of silk fibroin. These results suggested that methylglyoxal-modified Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin could be considered as a potential starting material in loading positively charged drugs.

Aldehydes II - III were reacted with diethyl cyanomethylphosphonate and sodium hydride in 1,2-dimethoxyethane to give the respective pairs of unsaturated nitriles IVa and Va, VIa and VIIa, and VIIIa and IXa differing in configuration at the 20(21)-double bond. The pure isomers were obtained by chromatography on alumina, and the configuration at the double bond in them has been established on the basis of the coupling constants J(20, 21) in their 1H NMR spectra. Nitriles IVa - VIIa and IXa were converted via the corresponding hydroxy derivatives into hemisuccinates IVd - VIId and IXd, and into β-D-glucosides IVe - VIIe and IXe.

The use of a high-field NMR instrument (ν(1 H ) = 500 MHz ) and 2-dimensional NMR techniques (HMQC, HMBC, ROESY) enabled us to fully assign the 1 H and 13 C chemical shifts of bonellin dimethyl ester. The β-pyrrolic proton of C -3 appeared as a broad singlet at δ = 8.93, whereas that of C -8 gave a quartet with δ = 8.69 and 4J H - H = |1.28| Hz . The C -21 methyl protons appeared as a doublet with δ = 3.55 and 4J H - H = |1.07| Hz , while the C -71 methyl protons afforded a doublet with δ = 3.51 and 4J H - H = |1.28| Hz . These results suggest that the β-pyrrolic carbons of ring A belong to the aromatic 18 π-electron [18]diazaannulene delocalization pathway, whereas those of ring B remain outside the aromatic pathway. The broadening of the C -3 β-pyrrolic proton signal can be attributed to the allylic 3- CH - 21- CH 3 coupling and the 3- CH - 21- NH coupling. At 330 K, the tautomeric exchange 21- NH a ⇌ 23- NH b is fast and only one broad signal at δ = -2.49 is seen for these protons. The ROESY spectrum showed clear correlation signals between the 182- CH 3 and 171- CH 2 protons, the 182- CH 3 and 174- CH 3 protons, as well as between the 181- CH 3 and 17- CH protons. These results are compatible with the previous assignment that the absolute configuration at C-17 is S. Application of spin simulation enabled us to determine the chemical shifts and the 3J H - H coupling constants of the 17-propionate side-chain. The 3J H - H -values were used to calculate the populations for the 171-17 and 172-171 rotamers. A relatively high population value of 0.41 was found for the 171-17 g--rotamer, whose methoxycarbonylmethyl group points to the C -15 methine-bridge. This was interpreted as explaining the high tendency of bonellin to form anhydrobonellin. The rotational freedoms in the 13-propionate side-chain were studied by measuring the 1 H NMR spectra of the side-chain at temperatures between 300 and 195 K. At 300 K, the 131- and 132- CH 2 proton signals appeared as deceptively simple triplets, which at 195 K were split into complex multiplets. At 195 K, the signal arising from the 131- CH 2 protons exhibited more splitting, which indicates that these protons have less rotational freedom than the 132- CH 2 protons.

The 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of phenylallene, diluted in acetone-d6 and benzene-d6, yield long-range coupling constants over as many as eight formal bonds between the ring and side-chain protons. These are discussed in terms of σ- and π-electron spin–spin coupling mechanisms, which are sensitive to the torsion angle between the allenyl and phenyl fragments. The torsion angle is assessed by means of molecular orbital computations of the internal rotational potential, whose height is calculated as 16.0 kJ/mol at the MP2/6-31G* level of correlation-gradient theory. Comparison with experimental and theoretical internal rotational potentials for styrene suggests that steric repulsions in the planar form of styrene amount to about 4 kJ/mol. In a field of 7.0 T, phenylallene is partially aligned, entailing a positive dipolar coupling constant between the methylene protons, from which absolute signs of the spin–spin coupling constants involving these protons can be inferred. Such coupling constants over seven and eight bonds, to the meta and para protons, are taken as being mediated by the extended π-electron system, providing a measure of π-electron contributions to coupling constants between meta protons and those in side chains (spin correlation). Some coupling constants between protons and 13C nuclei in the side chain, as well as between ring protons and these 13C nuclei, are also discussed in terms of spin coupling mechanisms. Solvent perturbations of one-bond proton–carbon coupling constants in the allenyl group do not follow the usual pattern in which an increase in polarity of the solvent is associated with an increase in the magnitude of the coupling constant. Keywords: 1H NMR, phenylallene; 1H NMR, long-range spin–spin coupling constants in phenylallene; phenylallene, internal rotational potential, molecular orbital computations; molecular orbital calculations, an internal rotational potential in phenylallene.

The proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of some substituted 4-hydroxy-5-phosphinyl-2-imidazolidinones have been studied. The predominance of the cis stereoisomer of these compounds has been also established by 1H NMR spectroscopy. The spectral effects produced by the introduction of the phosphinyl group on the parent compound and by reaction of the substituted 4-hydroxy-5-phosphinyl-2-imidazolidinones with aqueous sodium deuteroxide are discussed. In addition, it has been established by 1H NMR that the product obtained from the reaction of 2-hydroxy-2-(diethoxyphosphinyl)ethanal with N-methylurea was a mixture of 18.2% 1-methyl- and of 81.8% 3-methyl-4-hydroxy-5-diethoxyphosphinyl-2-imidazolidinone.

Nitrogen-14 quadrupole interactions have been observed in the nonexchanging amino proton 1H nmr spectra of rigorously purified liquid mono- and dimethylamines over the temperature range −82 °C to +81 °C. The proton lineshapes have been analyzed to yield 14N spin-lifetimes (τ) as a function of temperature. Activation energies and correlation times for molecular reorientation in the liquids have been calculated from these data and the results compared with those from 14N nmr measurements.
