A program using13C-NMR data was developed to improve GC/MS identifications of chemical constituents in essential oils. Compiled data uses 2290 and 2370 chemical shifts of 229 monoterpenes and 158 sesquiterpenes, respectively, stored into two reference libraries. Each carbon atom was codified using rules that correlates its chemical shift with structural features of the carbon hybridization and vicinity.

9-Isothiocyanatoacridines VIII - XIV were prepared from the corresponding 9-chloroacridines I - VII. The IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and fluorescence spectra of the products are given. The 13C NMR chemical shifts of the C-9 ipso carbon atom exhibit a trend that is in accord with the Hammett constants of substituents bonded to the C-2 carbon. Effect of these substituents on the chemical shift of C-NCS was only small. The dependence of hydrolysis of isothiocyanates VIII - XIV on pH of the medium was studied. It was found that 9-isothiocyanatoacridines do not undergo hydrolysis at pH 7 - 10. The relative fluorescence intensities (F/F0) of compounds VIII - XIV at pH 7.4 have been determined in comparison with that of 9-aminoacridine. No direct dependence between the fluorescence intensity and the polar character of substituents has been found.

13C nmr data have been obtained for a series of 2- and 4-pyrones and pyridones, and their sulfur-containing analogues. Correlations have been observed between the nature of the ring hetero-atom and the chemical shift difference (Δδ) for the Cα and Cβ carbons in these conjugated systems. No significant correlation, however, appears to exist between the chemical shifts of the C=O and C=S groups. Substituent chemical shift (s.c.s.) effects for various simple substituents are compared with those in related series of compounds.

Abstract The content of phenolic compounds (total phenolic compounds, tannins, flavonoids and anthocyanidins) of three species of thyme (Thymus pulegioides, Thymus pannonicus, Thymus praecox) of different origin (Bohemian-Moravian highlands, Křivoklat and Považsky Inovec) was determined using spectrophotometric methods of European Pharmacopoeia 8th edition. Furthermore, the determination of the content of essential oil and analysis of its constituents was realised. The amount of total phenolics was determined by a spectrophotometric method using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent. Their content ranged from 3.87 to 8.86%. The content of tannins was established on a preliminary determination of the total phenolics, followed by adsorption of tannins on hide powder. The amount of tannins in our samples varied from 1.96 to 5.65%. The content of total flavonoids was determined by a spectrophotometric method using aluminium chloride. Quantitative analysis of flavonoids has shown that content in our samples ranged from 0.59 to 1.52% expressed as luteolin-7-O-glucoside (λ = 392 nm) and from 0.41 to 1.12% expressed as rutin (λ = 420 nm). Anthocyanins represent a small amount of total polyphenol content in Thymus species. In our samples, the content of anthocyanins expressed as cyanidin-3-O-glucoside varied from 0.02 to 0.1%. The determination of essential oil was realised by method of European Pharmacopoeia 8th edition. Its contents in our samples ranged from 0.2 to 0.75%. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used for essential oil analysis. According to the presence of main monoterpene in Thymus essential oil, we can distinguish three chemotypes: thymol, carvacrol and linalool. Due to variations of chemical constituents of thyme essential oil, it was possible to observe a relationship between occurrence of certain chemotype and origin of sample. Differences in content of flavonoids have not shown a significant relationship to locality of origin.

Abstract A small library of 6-substituted syringyl model compounds with aliphatic, carboxylic, phenylic, benzylic alcohols and brominated substituents were prepared. The influence of the substituents on the chemical shifts of the compounds was analyzed. All of model compounds showed a characteristic increase in the 13C NMR chemical shift of the methoxy group vicinal to the substitution. This 13C NMR peak and its corresponding correlation peak in HSQC could potentially be used to identify 6-condensation in syringylic lignin samples.

The 1H and 13C NMR data of thiophene 1,1-dioxide (3) and related compounds, especially of the precursor 2 and the consecutive product 5 are evaluated by computer simulation and multiple resonance. Chemical shifts and coupling constants reveal that 3 has the character of a cyclic diene. Diatropic or paratropic effects can be excluded.

Synthesis of two cyclopentenic δ-lactones, 1,3,4,4a,5,6-hexahydrocyclopenta[c]pyran-1-one and its analogue possessing a cyclopentenyl group bonded to the carbon atom 4a is described, starting from the cyclopentanone or cyclopentylidene cyclopentanone. The remarkable reactivity of the tosylhydrazones allows transformation of these compounds into substituted cyclopentenes, which lead to δ-lactones by cyclization. The conditions of cyclization depend on the nature of the cyclopentanone. The structure of the two δ-lactones is established by 1H and 13C nmr data, mass spectrometry, and, in one case, by X-ray analysis.

From the leaves of Zizyphus glabrata, a new dammarane-type triterpene, pseudojujubogenin -3-O- β -D-glucopyranoside, along with the known ceanothane triterpenes, granulosic acid, ceanothic acid and daucosterol were isolated. The structures of the compounds were fully characterized by detailed NMR investigations including 1H and 13C NMR, HSQC, COSY, HMBC and NOESY experiments. In addition, the dammarane glycoside was tested for its potential to inhibit various bacteria and was found to possess significant bactericidal activity. The 1H, 13C and full 2D-NMR data on granulosic acid has also been presented. This is the first report on the chemical constituents of the leaves of Z. glabrata.

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.

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.

13C nmr chemical shifts have been recorded for a number of uracil, thiouracil, and pyrimidine derivatives. These data are discussed in relation to what is known of the lactam–lactim tautomerism in such systems and possible correlations of chemical shifts with normal aromatic substituent chemical shift parameters. The chemical shifts for the CH3 groups in simple methylated derivatives of uracil are very characteristic of the site of methylation and should prove useful as a tool for assigning structures to alkylated derivatives of this general type.
