Charakterisierung der Protonen in polykristallinen Parawolframaten durch 1H‐MAS‐NMR‐Untersuchungen

Characterization of the Protons in Polycrystalline Paratungstates using ¹H MAS NMR Investigations ¹H MAS NMR experiments are used to characterize the non‐acid protons of the anions in polycrystalline paratungstates by means of the measured isotropic chemical shift values. The investigation of various hydrates of ammonium paratungstate allows a direct proof of protons in NH₄ ions and in water molecules while protons of the anions are not detectable. However, for both the potassium and the sodium paratungstates ¹H MAS NMR investigations detected the protons of water molecules and the non‐acid protons of the paratungstate anions. Additional ¹H broad‐line NMR experiments at 173 K support the interpretation of the results obtained by the ¹H MAS NMR investigations. For the NMR signal of the non‐acid protons of the paratungstate anion in the ¹H MAS NMR spectra of the potassium salt line‐splitting appears. This refers to the existence of two nonidentical positions of the protons in the crystal lattice and is in agreement with the results of the X‐ray structural analysis.     

1H and 13C NMR assignments of abietane diterpenes from Aegiphila lhotzkyana

An NMR study of one new and several known abietane diterpenes isolated from the roots of Aegiphila lhotzkyana is described. In addition to 1D NMR, several 2D shift‐correlated NMR pulse sequences (¹H–¹H‐COSY, NOESY, HMQC and HMBC) were used to establish all the structures, and unambiguously perform the ¹H and ¹³C chemical shift assignments of the new natural diterpene and three derivatives, the NMR data for which have not been reported previously. Revision of current data assignment for teuvincenone H is also suggested. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Derivatives of pyrazinecarboxylic acid: 1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectroscopic investigations

NMR spectroscopic studies are undertaken with derivatives of 2‐pyrazinecarboxylic acid. Complete and unambiguous assignment of chemical shifts (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N) and coupling constants (¹H,¹H; ¹³C,¹H; ¹⁵N,¹H) is achieved by combined application of various 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques. Unequivocal mapping of ¹³C,¹H spin coupling constants is accomplished by 2D (δ,J) long‐range INEPT spectra with selective excitation. Phenomena such as the tautomerism of 3‐hydroxy‐2‐pyrazinecarboxylic acid are discussed. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

NMR analysis of 6‐(2′,3′‐dihydro‐1′H‐inden‐1′‐yl)‐1H‐indene

¹H, ¹³C and two‐dimensional NMR analyses were applied to determine the NMR parameters of 6‐(2′,3′‐dihydro‐1′H‐inden‐1′‐yl)‐1H‐indene. The measurements were accomplished with 0.5 mg of the substance, this quantity being sufficient to determine the chemical shifts of all the H and C atoms, and also the appropriate coupling constants and to give the complete NMR resonance assignments of the molecule. The predicted patterns of the four different H atoms of the methylene groups of the indane structural element coincided completely with the complex patterns in the NMR spectra.

Spectroscopic separation of 13C NMR spectra of complex isomeric mixtures by the CSSF‐TOCSY‐INEPT experiment

Isomeric mixtures from synthetic or natural origins can pose fundamental challenges for their chromatographic separation and spectroscopic identification. A novel 1D selective NMR experiment, chemical shift selective filter (CSSF)‐TOCSY‐INEPT, is presented that allows the extraction of ¹³C NMR subspectra of discrete isomers in complex mixtures without physical separation. This is achieved via CSS excitation of proton signals in the ¹H NMR mixture spectrum, propagation of the selectivity by polarization transfer within coupled ¹H spins, and subsequent relaying of the magnetization from ¹H to ¹³C by direct INEPT transfer to generate ¹³C NMR subspectra. Simple consolidation of the subspectra yields ¹³C NMR spectra for individual isomers. Alternatively, CSSF‐INEPT with heteronuclear long‐range transfer can correlate the isolated networks of coupled spins and therefore facilitate the reconstruction of the ¹³C NMR spectra for isomers containing multiple spin systems. A proof‐of‐principle validation of the CSSF‐TOCSY‐INEPT experiment is demonstrated on three mixtures with different spectral and structural complexities. The results show that CSSF‐TOCSY‐INEPT is a versatile, powerful tool for deconvoluting isomeric mixtures within the NMR tube with unprecedented resolution and offers unique, unambiguous spectral information for structure elucidation.

1H and 13C NMR spectra of Strychnos alkaloids: Selected NMR updates

The PBE0/pcSseg-2//pcseg-2 calculations of ¹H and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts were performed for a classical series of 12 Strychnos alkaloids (except for the earlier studied parent strychnine), namely akuammicine, isostrychnine, rosibiline, tsilanine, spermostrychnine, diaboline, cyclostrychnine, henningsamide, strychnosilidine, strychnobrasiline, holstiine, and icajine. It was found that the calculated ¹H and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts show markedly good correlations with available experimental data, as characterized by a mean absolute error of 0.22 ppm for the range of 8 ppm for protons and 1.97 ppm for the range of 180 ppm for carbons. Complementarily, the present results provide essential NMR update and fill a gap in the NMR data of this distinguished group of vitally important natural products.     

Complete 1H NMR spectral analysis of ten chemical markers of Ginkgo biloba

The complete and unambiguous ¹H NMR assignments of ten marker constituents of Ginkgo biloba are described. The comprehensive ¹H NMR profiles (fingerprints) of ginkgolide A, ginkgolide B, ginkgolide C, ginkgolide J, bilobalide, quercetin, kaempferol, isorhamnetin, isoquercetin, and rutin in DMSO‐d₆ were obtained through the examination of 1D ¹H NMR and 2D ¹H,¹H‐COSY data, in combination with ¹H iterative full spin analysis (HiFSA). The computational analysis of discrete spin systems allowed a detailed characterization of all the ¹H NMR signals in terms of chemical shifts (δ_H) and spin‐spin coupling constants (J_HH), regardless of signal overlap and higher order coupling effects. The capability of the HiFSA‐generated ¹H fingerprints to reproduce experimental ¹H NMR spectra at different field strengths was also evaluated. As a result of this analysis, a revised set of ¹H NMR parameters for all ten phytoconstituents was assembled. Furthermore, precise ¹H NMR assignments of the sugar moieties of isoquercetin and rutin are reported for the first time. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

QSAR studies of phenylhydrazine-substituted tetronic acid derivatives based on the 1H NMR and 13C NMR chemical shifts

The quantitative structure–activity relationship models of 40 phenylhydrazine-substituted tetronic acid derivatives were established between the ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts and the antifungal activity against Fusarium graminearum, Botrytis cinerea, Rhizoctonia cerealis, and Colletotrichum capsici. The models were validated by R, R², R_A², variance inflation factor, F, and P values testing and residual analysis. It was concluded from the models that the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts of C8, C10, C7, and the ¹H NMR chemical shifts of Ha contributed positively to the activity against Fusarium graminearum, Botrytis cinerea, Colletotrichum capsici, and Rhizoctonia cerealis, respectively. The models indicated that decreasing the election cloud density of specific nucleuses in compounds, for example, by the substituting of electron withdrawing groups, would improve the antifungal activity. These models demonstrated the practical application meaning of chemical shifts in the quantitative structure–activity relationship study. Furthermore, a practical guide was provided for further structural optimization of the antifungal phenylhydrazine-substituted tetronic acid derivatives based on the ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts.
