Detailed 1H and 13C NMR structural assignment of ent-polyalthic acid,a biologically active labdane diterpene

In this paper, a complete ¹H and ¹³C NMR data assignment of ent-polyalthic acid, a biologically active labdane-type diterpene, is presented. The assignments were carried on the basis of spectroscopic data from ¹H NMR, ¹³C{¹H} NMR, gCOSY, gHMQC, and gHMBC experiments. Furthermore, a software-assisted methodology, using FOMSC3_rm_NB and NMR_MultSim programs, supported the detailed and unequivocal assignment of ¹H and ¹³C signals, allowing all hydrogen coupling constants to be determined and thus clarifying all hydrogen signal multiplicities.     

Identification of modified natural porphyrin isomers: 1H and 13C NMR assignments by NOESY and reverse heteronuclear shift correlation

The efficiency of two-dimensional homonuclear ¹H ¹H NOE spectroscopy in characterizing and fully assigning the ¹H NMR spectra of several isomers of meso- or ring-substituted deuteroporphyrins is demonstrated. The carbon resonances of the skeleton and the substituents were fully assigned using two-dimensional reverse heteronuclear shift correlation spectroscopy.     

Comprehensive 1H and 13C NMR assignment of 13 protobassic acid saponins

This study aimed to carry out complete ¹H and ¹³C NMR assignment of 13 protobassic acid saponins, including arganins A–C ( 1 – 3 ) and F ( 4 ), butyrosides B–D ( 5 – 7 ), tieghemelin ( 8 ), 3′-O-glucosyl-arganin C ( 9 ), Mi-saponins A–C ( 10 – 12 ), and mimusopsin ( 13 ), recorded in methanol-d₄. This was accomplished by the analysis of high-resolution one-dimensional (1D) NMR (¹H and ¹³C), two-dimensional (2D) NMR (¹H–¹H COSY, HSQC, and HMBC), and selectively excited 1D TOCSY spectra. Before this study, ¹H and ¹³C NMR data of arganins A–C ( 1 – 3 ) and F ( 4 ) were partially assigned. Our effort leads to their complete assignment, especially the glycon residue, and revises some reported data. Some revisions of the ¹H and ¹³C NMR data in the glycon part of butyroside C ( 6 ), tieghemelin ( 8 ), Mi-saponin A ( 10 ), and mimusopsin ( 13 ) were made. Those data of butyrosides B and D ( 5 & 7 ) and Mi-saponin B ( 11 ), which had not been recorded in methanol-d₄, are provided. In addition, the ¹H and ¹³C NMR data of Mi-saponin C ( 12 ) are reported for the first time. These data, being recorded in methanol-d₄, should be more friendly for use as a reference for identifying the related triterpenoid saponins.     

Towards the automatic analysis of NMR spectra: part 7. Assignment of 1H by employing both 1H and 1H/13C correlation spectra

A reliable method of automatically assigning one-dimensional proton spectra is described. The method relies on the alignment of the proton spectrum with an associated heteronuclear single-quantum coherence (HSQC) spectrum, transferring the stoichiometry and couplings to the HSQC. The HSQC spectrum is then assigned using a linear assignment procedure in which a fitness function incorporating (1)H chemical shifts, (1)H couplings and (13)C shifts are employed. The method uniquely employs a sequential procedure in which only correlations of like stoichiometry are assigned at the same time.     

A new assignment technique of 2D‐NMR spectra by spin‐lock sequence to a tripeptide containing tryptophan in water

We developed a new assignment technique of tryptophan residues using pulsed field gradient TOCSY–ROESY (PFG‐TORO) and pulsed field gradient TOCSY–ROESY–TOCSY (PFG‐TOROTO) techniques in water. Connectivity from βH to ζ2H (H‐7) via ε1H (H‐1) and δ1H (H‐2) in the TORO spectrum and from βH to ζ3H (H‐5) and η2H (H‐6) via ε1H (H‐1) and δ1H (H‐2) in the TOROTO spectrum could be able to assign each of the protons of the indole rings.

1H NMR spectroscopic studies of the conformational isomers of pyrrolidinofullerenes

Mixed bis-adduct derivatives of C60 containing a pyrrolidine and a malonate methano group were synthesized. Three regioisomers, the e', the trans-2, and the trans-3, were isolated and characterized. In-depth NMR studies of these methano-pyrrolidinofullerenes showed that the nitrogen inversion on the pyrrolidine moiety is not a fast event in the 1H NMR time scale as previously regarded. Solvent effects, variable temperature experiments, and protonation of the pyrrolidine nitrogen are addressed.

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.

1H, 13C, and 73Ge NMR spectral analysis of substituted aryltrimethylgermanes

NMR chemical shifts of 1H, 13C, and 73Ge are reported for a series of monosubstituted aromatic trimethylgermanes of the type XC6H4Ge(CH3)3; X = p-N(CH3)2, p-OCH3, p-OC2H5, p-C(CH3)3, p-Si(CH3)3, p-Ge(CH3)3, p-Sn(CH3)3, p-CH3, m-CH3, -H, m-OCH3, p-Cl, p-Br, m-F, m-CF3, p-CF3, o-OCH3, and o-CH3. The relatively narrow 73Ge resonances show a strong correlation with Hammett sigma constants, with a correlation coefficient of 0.976 and 0.876 for 73Ge chemical shifts in meta- and para-substituted derivatives, respectively. The 13C chemical shifts of the methyl carbons bonded to germanium also display a relationship, with correlation coefficients of 0.904, 0.993, and 0.911 for para-, meta- and all derivatives, respectively. Comparisons of the Hammett plots for the homologous series XC6H4M(CH3)3; M = C, Si, Ge, Sn, show that, in general, correlation coefficients decrease while slopes increase significantly down the group, presumably reflecting the corresponding increase in chemical shift range of the group 14 atom. The Hammett constant derived for the p-Ge(CH3)3 group of +0.13 compares with the NMR-derived constants of -0.12 for p-C(CH3)3, +0.14 for p-Si(CH3)3, and -0.14 for p-Sn(CH3)3. The indication of electron release by carbon and tin can be rationalized through traditional hyperconjugative arguments for carbon and by the low electronegativity and consequent inductive effect of tin. The small electron attraction suggested by the positive constants for silicon and germanium can be simply, and perhaps naively, attributed to pi-acceptor interactions with the benzene ring.     

Complete 1H and 13C NMR spectral assignment of cis- and trans- 3-(2-[2-(4-methylphenyl)ethenyl]phenyl])sydnones

1H and 13C NMR spectra of cis- and trans-3-(2-[2-(4-methylphenyl)ethenyl]phenyl])sydnones, the first stilbene-substituted mezoionic oxadiazolium rings, were fully assigned combining the information in various solvents, such as deuterated benzene, acetone and chloroform, using 2D NMR techniques.     

Two-dimensional1H and13C NMR spectroscopy and the structural aspects of amylose and amylopectin

Summary A complete assignment of the¹³C and¹H NMR signals of amylose dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide was achieved using two-dimensional H-H and C-H correlated spectroscopy and deuterium exchange. The same methods together with an INEPT experiment provided the assignments of the¹H and¹³C NMR signals of the amylose type glucan units, the branch end glucan fragments, and a few assignments of nuclei within the branching glucan units of amylopectin dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide. From these assignments and from the integration of pertinent proton signals the branching degrees of amylose and amylopectin were derived to amount to 3.9 and 8–9%.
