13C nmr data indicate that the epoxypropyl side chain of 'asperlin' (1) has a trans configuration. This assignment follows from associated measurements on model compounds, showing that the 13C chemical shift of an epoxypropyl CH3 group is close to either 17 ppm (trans isomers) or 13 ppm (cis isomers). Synthesized as oxirane derivatives related to 1 are diastereomeric pairs of 8-deoxy-6,7-cis- and -trans-epoxy-1,2:3,4-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-galacto-octopyranoses.

The natural abundance 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of a number of spirobenzylisoquinoline alkaloids and related model compounds have been recorded. The carbon resonances of the alkaloids were assigned by comparison with the spectra of other isoquinoline alkaloids and with those of the model compounds. It has been shown that 13C nmr spectroscopy may be used to differentiate between diastereomers in this series.

The preferential protonation sites of the homo dimers deoxycytidylyl-(3′,5′)-deoxycytidine, thymidylyl-(3′,5′)-thymidine, and deoxyadenylyl-(3′,5′)-deoxyadenosine were established by nitrogen-15 and carbon-13 NMR in dimethyl sulfoxide, in the presence of varying amounts of CF3COOH. The nitrogen-15 NMR data show that in d(CpC) the capability of the two N3 nitrogens to accept the proton is slightly different. In d(TpT) and d(ApA) the protonation of the phosphate group leads to significant variations of the chemical shift of the carbons adjacent to phosphorus. Keywords: deoxydinucleotides, protonation, 15N and 13C NMR.

γ-Irradiation of oxygen-free, aqueous solutions of 2′-deoxythymidine in the presence of the organic nitroxide free radical, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1,4-piperidone-N-oxyl (TAN), leads to a complex mixture of products in which the TAN moiety is linked to the C5 or C6 position of a 5,6-saturated thymine ring. Extensive 1H and 13C nmr data are provided for the eight TAN–dT adducts which are produced in the largest amounts. The results show that the conformational properties of the sugar moiety are dependent on the point of attachment of the TAN group and the configuration of the saturated thymine ring.

The identification of aliphatic hydrocarbons containing multiple asymmetric centers can be difficult because of the complexity of the nmr spectra and because in capillary chromatography the diastereomers may be resolved to varying degrees. We suggest that the most effective method for identifying such hydrocarbons is through the pattern of retention times developed by the mixture of diastereomers on a suitable capillary glc column.This paper presents the results of some studies of a series of alkanes having the general form C2H5—(CH—CH3)n—R, where n = 1 to 4, and includes the syntheses and 13C nmr spectra of the compounds.

Revised structures for 4-bromohexahydroechinulin and 6-nitrohexahydroechinulin have been established using 13C nmr spectroscopy. For this purpose the substituent parameter for the nitro group at a site flanked by two methyl groups has been measured. Inconsistencies in previous data on alkyl indoles in comparison with hexahydroechinulin suggested a reassignment of the C4 and C6 signals in 5-methylindole, which we have proven by single frequency spin-decoupling experiments. The original data on methyl indoles has been retabulated to include the above reassignments and others recently reported by Gribble et al. A more consistent and reliable set of methyl substituent parameters is thereby obtained.

13C nmr data have been obtained for a series of 4-thiazoline-2-thiones. Substituent chemical shift (s.c.s.) effects for methyl and phenyl substitution have been collated and are discussed in comparison with s.c.s. effects in other heterocyclic systems. Some attempt has also been made to compare our data with those reported previously for the thiazoles and for some thiones in the isothiazole series.

1H and 13C nmr data for eight phenyl, diphenyl- and di-tert-butyl-2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxathianes, substituted at C-4 and/or C-6 are presented. Vicinal couplings obtained from 1H spectra by iterative computer analysis indicate chair geometries for all materials except trans-4,6-disubstituted compounds. 13C chemical shifts are corroborative.

The natural abundance carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of some C19-diterpenoid alkaloids and their alkamines (lappaconitine, lappaconine, lapaconidine, ranaconine, 14-dehydrobrowniine, aconine, pseudoaconine, deoxyaconine, and hypaconine) have been determined at 15.03 MHz. With the aid of proton decoupling techniques, additivity relationships, and comparison with spectra of related alkaloids, self-consistent and unambiguous assignments of nearly all carbon resonances for these alkaloids have been made. Some important chemical shift trends have been observed, which are useful for identifying the basic C19-diterpenoid alkaloid skeleton and the hydroxy and methoxy group substitution patterns in these alkaloids. On the basis of 13C nmr spectra of lappaconitine and lappaconine, the anthranoyl ester moiety is assigned to the C-4 position in lappaconitine. The 13C nmr spectra of lapaconidine, aconine, and pseudoaconine taken in pyridine and chloroform have been compared to determine the conformational changes of the ring A hydroxy groups in these alkaloids.

Abstract In the catalytic hydrogenation of tetramethyl biphenyl-3,3′,4,4′-tetracarboxylate, tetramethyl dicyclohexyl-3,3′,4,4′-tetracarboxylates were obtained, from which we have isolated cis isomers as crystals. The base-catalyzed isomerization afforded the trans isomers. The structure of the products isolated was determined by single-crystal x-ray diffraction, which clearly reveals the axial and equatorial positions of the methoxycarbonyl group. The structures in solution are supported by 1H and 13C NMR data, and also by two-dimensional COSY techniques.
