A proton and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance study is reported on the number, stoichiometry, geometry, and stability of the complexes that form when sodium tungstate or sodium molybdate is mixed with each one of the following α-hydroxyacids in aqueous solution at pH values in the range 3–8: glycolic, lactic, chloro-3- andphenyl-3-lactic, mandelic, and glyceric acids. The predominant complexes have 1:2 composition and pK of formation of the order of −5 to −16.

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been used to identify sites in bacitracin which bind Cu2+ and Mn2+. Results are presented which implicate the free carboxyl groups of the aspartic and glutamic acid residues and the imidazole ring of the histidine residue as metal complexation sites between pH 6 and 8. Evidence is presented which also indicates that the thiazoline ring of bacitracin binds Mn2+. Bacitracin does not bind Cu2+ or Mn2+ at pH values of 2.5 or less.
