Über Pterinchemie. 79. Mitteilung. 13C-und 15N-NMR.-spektroskopische Untersuchungen an der (6RS)-5, 10-Methylen-5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro-L-folsäure; eindeutiger Beweis ihrer Struktur

¹³C- and ¹⁵N-NMR.-Spectroscopic Studies on (6RS)-5, 10-Methylene-5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro-L -folic Acid; Unequivocal Proof of thier Structure The existence of a 5, 10-methylene bridge in the title compound has been established with the help of ¹⁵N-NMR, and ¹³C-NMR. spectroscopy. The simultaneous coupling of ¹³C(11) with ¹⁵N(5) and ¹⁵N(10) proves that C(11) must be bound as a methylene bridge to both N-atoms. Some other aspects of the NMR. spectra of the compound are discussed. Synthesis of the title product with the label ¹⁵N is described.
