Nuclear Overhauser enhancement constants

The oligomer and polymer dissociation in solution is a very important aspect of this field. Polymer 135, which was first reported in 1992,119 was fully characterized by X-ray crystallography as a BF4 salt. However, in solution, the polymer dissociates to form oligomers with 7-9 units, depending on the counteranion (BF 4, PF6, C104). The evaluation of the number of units was performed using spin-lattice relaxation time (T ) and nuclear Overhauser enhancement constant (NOE) measurements.120... 

Nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) spectroscopy has been used to measure the through-space interaction between protons at and the protons associated with the substituents at N (20). The method is also useful for distinguishing between isomers with different groups at and C. Reference 21 contains the chemical shifts and coupling constants of a considerable number of pyrazoles with substituents at N and C. NOE difference spectroscopy ( H) has been employed to differentiate between the two regioisomers [153076 5-0] (14) and [153076 6-1] (15) (22). N-nmr spectroscopy also has some utility in the field of pyrazoles and derivatives. 

The relative stereochemistry of hyperaspine 93 was determined by 2-D NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometry (MS) methods. It has a m-fused bicyclic conformation 93a <2001TL4621>. The trans-fused one is disfavored by an axial pentyl group at C-8 and by a destabilizing dipole-dipole interaction between the N- and O-atoms, which does not exist in the alternative //.(-conformation. The geminal coupling constant of C( 1 )H2 in 93 (11.0 Hz), and that of its 6-hydroxy derivative (11.2 Hz), indicates that they exist preferentially in / //-conformations, whereas their 6-epimers adopt trans-conformations (9.3 and 8.4 Hz, respectively) <2005EJ01378>. Nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY) studies also confirmed the stereochemistry of 93 by the marked nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) correlation between H-3 and H-4a <20030L5063>. 

The relative stereochemistry of the pyrrolidine ring of broussonetine C (1) was determined from its coupling constants (vicinal coupling, 2,3 = = Ja = 6.4 Hz) and nuclear Overhauser enhancement... 

A novel cysteine derivative, spongiacysteine, was isolated recently from marine sponge. It was converted to lactone 4 by reaction with 2,4,6-trichlorobenzoyl chloride, 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), and triethylamine. Selected nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY) correlation and coupling constants are given <2004CL1262>. 

Within a molecule, a nucleus is characterized by its magnetic properties and electronic environment and by the following consequent parameters associated with the corresponding NMR signals chemical shift, coupling constants, relaxation rates,15 and nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE).1617 All these values may be used to extract qualitative or quantitative information about the structure, the conformation, and the behavior of molecules in solution. 

Conformational analyses of JOM-13 and [L-Ala3]DPDPE have proven to be critical for the determination of the bioactive conformation of enkephalin-like peptides at the delta receptor. H-NMR studies of JOM-13 in aqueous solution revealed that this tetrapeptide exists in two distinct conformations on the NMR time scale as evidenced by two sets of resonances [63]. Large differences in the observed chemical shifts and coupling constants for the D-Cys2 residue in the two conformers suggested that the major differences between the two NMR conformers reside in the disulfide portion of the molecule however, a paucity of conformationally informative nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) interactions precluded the development of a detailed structural model from the NMR studies. In order to develop such a model a thorough conformational analysis of JOM-13 was undertaken, in which the NMR data were complemented by x-ray diffraction results and by molecular mechanics calculations [64]. The results indicate that the 11-... 

There are three aspects to consider. First, we summarize briefly the underlying computational framework needed and the general strategy used in the structure determination. Second, we cover the use of 2D, 3D, and 4D methods to permit the sequential assignment of peaks to specific amino acids. Finally, we describe the use of nuclear Overhauser enhancements and spin coupling constants to provide restraints on interproton distances and bond angles, and we indicate how dipolar coupling and chemical shifts can sometimes add further information on molecular conformation. 

These aspects are discussed in an excellent recent review [24]. It must also be noted that NMR experiments are indispensable tools in stmcture elucidation and furnish specific information regarding chemical shift, (5), spin-spin coupling constants [25] (J), spin-lattice relaxation times (T1), spin-spin relaxation times (T2) as well as nuclear Overhauser enhancement (nOE). These... 

Modern high-field H NMR techniques (correlated spectroscopy (COSY), heteronuclear chemical shift correlation (HETCOR), nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE), etc.), which generally permit determination of the chemical shifts and coupling constants of all protons (and connectivities between certain groups), have greatly simplified the structural determination of organic natural products (e.g., 231-235). This has certainly been the case in the field of sarpagine alkaloids.
