Natural abundance 13C Ft nmr spectra of four different series of title compounds have been examined. Unambiguous chemical shift assignments could be made for all the carbons of the 11-membered cis-3,3-dimethyl-5-keto-6-alkyl-8-decenolides. In the rest of the 9- to 16-membered ketolactones, unique as well as logical assignments have been made using the standard 13C chemical shift rules. In the case of two benzo- and naphthoketolactone series examined, the available shielding parameters for the substituted benzenes were employed with success to the naphthalene series for the assignment of aromatic carbons.

The 13C n.m.r. spectra of nine Nuphar alkaloids: deoxynupharidine, 7-epideoxynupharidine, nupharidine, 7-epinupharidine, nupharolutine, 7-epinupharolutine, thiobinupharidine, thionu-phlutine B, and neothiobinupharidine, have been determined. Also examined were the spectra of five model compounds, 2,2,4,4-tetramethylthiolane, 3(a)-methyl-3(e)-methylthiomethylquinolizidine, 3(e)-methyl-3(a)-methylthiomethylquinolizidine, 3(e)-methylthio-3(a)-methylquinolizidine, and 3-methylfuran. This latter group of spectra were used to assist the chemical shift assignments of the Nuphar alkaloids. The most significant findings of this study are: (i) axial methyl and thiomethylene groups are shielded more than their equatorial counterparts in all cases; (ii) axial and equatorial hydroxyl groups substituted at C-7 of deoxynupharidine and 7-epideoxynupharidine give α-, β-, and γ-effects in ring B similar to those in carbocyclic systems but also produce small upfield shifts in ring A especially at the carbons α to nitrogen; (iii) the effect of a 3-furyl group located at C-4 appears to have nearly the same effect on quinolizidine ring carbons as a methyl group in the same position, the effects being shielding and deshielding at the various ring carbons; (iv) N-oxide formation results in α-, β-, γ-, and δ-shielding and deshielding effects consistent with the incorporation of an axial oxygen into a trans-fused system or the formation of a cis-fused quinolizidine N-oxide; and (v) methylene or methyl groups attached to C-2 and C-4 of a thiolane, including that in the skeleton of the C30 thiaspirane alkaloids, experience deshielding δ-effects.

In an effort to introduce N-chloroarylsulphonamides of different oxydising strengths, sixteen sodium salts of N-chloro-mono- and di-substituted benzenesulphonamides of the configuration, 4- X-C6H4SO2NaNCl (where X = H; CH3; C2H5; F; Cl; Br; I or NO2) and i-X, j-YC6H3SO2NaNCl (where i-X, j-Y = 2,3-(CH3)2; 2,4-(CH3)2; 2,5-(CH3)2; 2-CH3,4-Cl; 2-CH3,5-Cl; 3-CH3,4-Cl; 2,4- Cl2 or 3,4-Cl2) are prepared, characterized through their infrared spectra in the solid state and NMR spectra in solution. The υN-Cl frequencies vary in the range 950 - 927 cm−1. Effects of substitution in the benzene ring in terms of electron donating and electron withdrawing groups have been considered, and conclusions drawn. The chemical shifts of aromatic protons and carbon-13 in all the N-chloroarylsulphonamides have been calculated by adding substituent contributions to the shift of benzene. Considering the approximation employed the agreement between the calculated and experimental chemical shift values for different protons or carbon-13 is quite good. Effects of phenyl ring substitution on chemical shift values of both 1H and 13C are also graphically represented in terms of line diagrams.

Abstract A series of alkyl-arylsubstituted N-methyl phosphinothioformamides, R(Ph)PC(S)NHMe (2 a-g), with varying bulkiness of the alkyl rest was synthesized from the racemic secondary phosphines 1a-g and methyl isothiocyanate. 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 2a−g reveal signal sets of diastereotopic nuclei due to the asymmetry of the molecule. The chemical shift and coupling constants were confirmed by simulation in case of 2b, c. The vicinal 31P−13C couplings of the menthyl and neomenthyl compounds 2f, g show an "anti-Karplus" behaviour (3J(gauche) > 3J(trans)) and allow the conformational assignment of the alicyclic group. The 31P chemical shifts of 2a−d give a linear correlation with the cone angle of the alkyl substituents quoted from literature.

An alternative two-dimensional nmr pulse sequence, (90°–t1/2–90°–t1/2–FID),correlates the chemical shifts of coupled nuclei. The application of this technique to the solution of the complicated proton nmr spectra of oligoribonucleotides is discussed.
