1-Desacetylwilfordine, 8, 1-desacetylwilfortrine, 9, and 2-debenzoyl-2-nicotinoylwilforine, 10, have been isolated from root extracts of the Chinese medicinal and insecticidal plant Tripterygiumwilfordii. Analysis of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 8 and 10, with the aid of COSY, HCCOSY, and COLOC experiments, has allowed unambiguous chemical shift assignments of all protons and carbons of these alkaloids. Keywords: alkaloids, sesquiterpene, Celastraceae, Tripterygium, NMR.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) results are presented for several aluminum alloy samples prepared using the melt-spinning technique including orthorhombic Al6Mn, Al–Mn quasicrystals both with and without doping with Si and Ru, and a T-phase alloy of Al and Pt. With the exception of the orthorhombic material, all of the NMR spectra show a broad distribution of sites. No features unique to the quasicrystal phase are observed. For the orthorhombic material the quadrupole field parameters are found to be ∥VQ∥ − 1.0±0.1 MHz and η = 0.4±0.1.

Abstract The chemical shifts of Cs+ in binary melts of caesium trifluoroacetate with lithium, sodium, potassium or thallium trifluoroacetates have been studied as a function of composition. An influence of added foreign cations on chemical shift of caesium nuclei has been found. The nature of the intra-and intermolecular paramagnetic contributions into the shifts of 133Cs is discussed.

Complete assignments of the carbon-13 n.m.r. spectra of the following compounds in aqueous solution are presented: 6-chloro-6-deoxy-D-glucose, 6-O-methyl-D-glucose, ribitol, glucitol, 4-O-methyl-glucitol, maltose, maltitol, 6,6′-dichloro-6,6′-dideoxymaltose, 6′-chloro-6′-deoxy-maltose, isomaltose, isomaltitol, and 6′-chloro-6′-deoxyisomaltose. Some earlier assignments for maltose are reversed. Chlorination on the exocyclic carbon of the glucopyranose ring usually results in a substantial decrease in the chemical shift of the substituted carbon (−17 p.p.m.) and the next-nearest carbon (−1.2 p.p.m.); methylation leads to an increased chemical shift for the contiguous carbon (+10 p.p.m.) and only small changes for other carbons in the molecule. The response to 4-O-methylation in glucitol is opposite for C-3 (+0.7 p.p.m.) and C-5 (−0.8 p.p.m.) demonstrating that response of a particular carbon to substitution at a neighboring carbon depends upon the configuration of the particular carbon. Dissolution of these compounds in pyridine results in a bunching together of resonances which makes unambiguous assignments very difficult. The data for this series of compounds are useful in assigning the more complex spectra of microbial polysaccharides.

Carbon-13 nmr chemical shift assignments are reported for a series of 5-substituted benzimidazoles, 2-methylbenzimidazole, and 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole. By employing the three-parameter equation of Smith and Proulx, the chemical shifts of all the ring carbons of the 5-substituted compounds are correlated with F and R of Swain and Lupton and Q of Schaefer; only the ipso carbon, C-5, has chemical shifts with a correlation coefficient less than 0.953. These correlations are compared with those obtained from the Swain–Lupton and Taft relationships; in general those from the latter two approaches are found to be less satisfactory. Correlations of the same chemical shifts with excess charge density values, calculated at the INDO level of approximation, are also presented.

A series of (1,3-dithiane)Fe(CO)4 complexes, (2-X-1,3-dithiane)Fe(CO)4, X = H, Me, SiMe3, GeMe3, SnMe3, PbMe3, has been prepared and characterized, and both the complexes and the free ligands studied by 1H and 13C nmr spectroscopy. The energy barrier to ring inversion in (1,3-dithiane)Fe(CO)4, ΔG298†, is 14.7 ± 0.2 kcal mol−1, some 4.4 kcal mol−1 higher than in free 1,3-dithiane.13C nmr spectra showed that within the Fe(CO)4 moiety, rapid averaging of carbonyl groups occurs down to at least −80 °C.
