We report the ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts and J(H,H), J(H,F) and J(C,F) coupling constants of 13 2,4‐diamino‐10‐methylpyrimido[4,5‐b]‐5‐quinolone derivatives, some of them with moderate activity against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro. They were characterized and assigned on the basis of ¹H, ¹³C and ¹³C–¹H (short‐ and long‐range) correlated spectra. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Supramolecular Complexation in Biological Media: NMR Study on Inclusion of an Anionic Tetraarylporphyrin into a Per‐O‐Methylated β‐Cyclodextrin Cavity in Serum,Blood, and Urine

The supramolecular complexation of 5,10,15,20‐tetrakis(4‐sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS) with heptakis(2,3,6‐tri‐O‐methyl)‐β‐cyclodextrin (TMCD) has been known to be highly specific in aqueous media. In this study, we have used NMR spectroscopy to reveal that this supramolecular system also works even in biologically crowded media such as serum, blood, and urine. A ¹³C‐labeled heptakis(2,3,6‐tri‐O‐methyl‐¹³C)‐β‐cyclodextrin (¹³C‐TMCD) was synthesized and studied using one‐dimensional (1D) HMQC spectroscopy in serum and blood. The 1D HMQC spectrum of ¹³C‐TMCD showed clear signals due to the 2‐, 3‐, and 6‐O¹³CH₃ groups, whose chemical shifts changed upon addition of TPPS due to quantitative formation of the ¹³C‐TMCD/TPPS=2/1 inclusion complex in such biological media. The ¹H NMR signals of non‐isotope‐labeled TPPS included by ¹³C‐TMCD were detected using the ¹³C‐filtered ROESY technique. A pharmacokinetic study of ¹³C‐TMCD and its complex with TPPS was carried out in mice using the 1D HMQC method. The results indicated that (1) 1D HMQC is an effective technique for monitoring the inclusion phenomena of ¹³C‐labeled cyclodextrin in biological media and (2) the intermolecular interaction between ¹³C‐TMCD and TPPS is highly selective even in contaminated media like blood, serum, and urine.     

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.

Synthesis,NMR characterization and ab initio 6‐31G* study of 1‐aryl‐2,3‐dialkyl‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydropyrimidinium salts

We describe the synthesis of a series of 1‐aryl‐2,3‐dialkyl‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydropyrimidinium salts 1 , by alkylation of the corresponding 1,4,5,6‐tetrahydropyrimidines 2 . We analyze the changes in the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of compounds 2 induced by protonation and quaternization. The results of an ab initio theoretical study on amidine 2a , and the cations resulting from its protonation ( 2aH ⁺) and quaternization ( la ⁺) are presented. A qualitative correlation was found between ¹³C NMR and theoretical data in the case of protonation. The influence of the substitution patterns in the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of compounds 1 is also discussed.

Deuterium‐induced isotope effects on the 13C chemical shifts of α‐d‐glucose pentaacetate

1,2,3,4,6‐Penta‐O‐acetyl‐α‐d ‐glucopyranose and the corresponding [1‐²H], [2‐²H], [3‐²H], [4‐²H], [5‐²H], and [6,6‐²H₂]‐labeled compounds were prepared for measuring deuterium/hydrogen‐induced effects on ¹³C chemical shift ⁿΔ (DHIECS) values. A conformational analysis of the nondeuterated compound was achieved using density functional theory (DFT) molecular models that allowed calculation of several structural properties as well as Boltzmann‐averaged ¹³C NMR chemical shifts by using the gauge‐including atomic orbital method. It was found that the DFT‐calculated C–H bond lengths correlate with ¹Δ DHIECS. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

On the Solution Structure of PHB: Preparation and NMR Analysis of Isotopically Labeled Oligo[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutanoic Acids] (OHBs)

While the chain conformation of poly‐ and oligo[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutanoate] (PHB, OHB) is known to be 2₁‐ and 3₁‐helical in stretched fibers and in the crystalline state, respectively (Fig. 2), the structure in solution is unknown. To be able to determine the NMR‐solution structure, specifically labeled linear oligomers have been prepared: a 16‐mer consisting of alternating pairs of fully ¹³C‐labeled and non‐labeled residues ( 1 ) and a 20‐mer containing an O‐¹³CH(¹³CH₂D)‐¹³CHD^Si‐¹³CO residue in position 9 (from the O‐terminus) and a fully ¹³C‐labeled residue in position 12 ( 2 ), both with (t‐Bu)Ph₂Si protection at the O‐ and Bn protection at the C‐terminus. The labeled (R)‐3‐hydroxybutanoic acid building blocks were prepared by Noyori hydrogenation of the ethyl ester of fully ¹³C‐labeled acetoacetic acid, and the D‐atoms were incorporated by D₂/Pd‐C reduction of a previously reported dibromo‐1,3‐dioxinone 8 (Scheme 1). The oligomers were obtained by a series of fragment couplings (Schemes 2 and 3). 600‐MHz NMR COSY, HSQC, ROESY, and cross‐correlated relaxation measurements (Figs. 4 – 6, 9, and 12, and Tables 1 – 3) at different temperatures and interpretations thereof led to assignments of all resonances, including those from the diastereotopic C(2)H₂ protons, and to determination of the conformationally averaged dihedral angles ϕ₂ and ϕ₃ (Figs. 2, 7, and 8) in the chain of the oligoester. The conclusions are: all but five or six terminal residues adopt the same conformation; the 2₁ helix is not the predominant secondary structure; the structure of the HB chain is averaged, even at –30°. Our investigation confirms the high flexibility of the polyester chain, a property that has been deduced previously from biological studies of PHB in membranes, in ion channels, and as appendage of proteins.

A one‐step method was reported for the synthesis of 6‐acetamido‐3‐(N‐(2‐(dimethylamino) ethyl) sulfamoyl) naphthalene‐1‐yl 7‐acetamido‐4‐hydroxynaphthalene‐2‐sulfonate by treating 7‐acetamido‐4‐hydroxy‐2‐naphthalenesulfonyl chloride with equal moles of N, N‐dimethylethylenediamine in acetonitrile in the presence of K₂CO₃. The chemical structure of the obtained compounds was characterized by MS, FTIR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, gCOSY, TOCSY, gHSQC, and gHMBC. The chemical shift differences of ¹H and ¹³C being δ 0.04 and 0.2, respectively, were unambiguously differentiated. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Solid‐State and Solution Structural Studies of 4‐{[C(E)]‐1H‐Azol‐1‐ylimino)methyl}pyridin‐3‐ols

The new N‐salicylideneheteroarenamines 1 – 4 were prepared by reacting the biologically relevant 3‐hydroxy‐4‐pyridinecarboxaldehyde ( 5 ) with 1H‐imidazol‐1‐amine ( 6 ), 1H‐pyrazol‐1‐amine ( 7 ), 1H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐1‐amine ( 8 ), and 1H‐1,3,4‐triazol‐1‐amine ( 9 ). Solution ¹H‐, ¹³C‐, and ¹⁵N‐NMR were used to establish that the hydroxyimino form A is the predominant tautomer. A combination of ¹³C‐ and ¹⁵N‐CPMAS‐NMR with X‐ray crystallographic studies confirms that the same form is present in the solid state. The stabilities and H‐bond geometries of the different forms, tautomers and rotamers, are discussed by using B3LYP/6‐31G** calculations.

A novel anhydrogalactosucrose derivative 2′‐methoxyl‐O‐1′,4′:3′,6′‐dianhydro‐β‐D‐fructofuranosyl 3,6‐anhydro‐4‐chloro‐4‐deoxy‐α‐D‐galactopyranoside ( 4 ) was prepared from 3,6:1′,4′:3′,6′‐trianhydro‐4‐chloro‐4‐deoxy‐galactosucrose ( 3 ) via a facile method and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and 2D NMR spectra.

NMR studies on 1,2‐dihydro‐2‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐4‐[4‐(4‐aminophenoxy)‐4‐phenyl]‐(2H)phthalazin‐1‐one

An unsymmetrical heterocyclic diamine, 1,2‐dihydro‐2‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐4‐[4‐(4‐aminophenoxy)‐4‐phenyl]‐(2H)phthalazin‐1‐one, was synthesized. Its ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra were completely assigned by utilizing the two‐dimensional heteronuclear ¹³C–¹H multiple‐bond coherence (HMBC) spectroscopy, and heteronuclear ¹³C–¹H one‐bond correlation spectroscopy, homonuclear shift correlation spectroscopy (H,H‐COSY) and rotating frame Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (ROESY). The structure of the compound was shown to be the phthalazinone rather than the phthalazine ether from cross peaks and chemical shifts of the protons. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
