Transformation degree protonation

The normal Fourier transformed proton decoupled spectra of the solid elastomers were obtained on a Broker HX-90-E/SXP spectrometer with a 15-inch magnet. The solid samples were cut into small pieces and placed into the inner portion of a 7 mm ID Wilmad coaxial tube. The upper portion of the inner coaxial tube was 9 mm ID and fits precisely inside a standard 10 mm Wilmad tube which contained the high temperature lock compound. Depending on the desired temperature, either D2O, DMSO-de or 1,4-dibromotetra-deuterobenzene was used as the lock. Ninety degree pulse widths of less than 15 ps were used with a five second repetition time,... 

I returned to the University of Toronto in the summer of 1940, having completed a Master s degree at Princeton, to enroll in a Ph.D. program under Leopold Infeld for which I wrote a thesis entitled A Study in Relativistic Quantum Mechanics Based on Sir A.S. Eddington s Relativity Theory of Protons and Electrons. This book summarized his thought about the constants of Nature to which he had been led by his shock that Dirac s equation demonstrated that a theory which was invariant under Lorentz transformation need not be expressed in terms of tensors. 

Treatment of the /J-hydroxy complex 15 with two equivalents of strong base followed by alkylation produces a mixture of the diastereomers 20 and 21 with an anomalously low d.r.27. The low degree of diastereofacial discrimination has been rationalized by invoking the formation of both rotamers of the initially formed alkoxide, 16 and 17. Rotamer 16 undergoes a-proton abstraction by a second equivalent of base to form the chelated dianionic Tf-enolate 18 which upon alkylation affords the usual diastereomer 20. Rotamer 17 is thought to rapidly transform to a metallo-lactone species by intramolecular attack of the alkoxide upon the proximate carbon monoxide ligand, which must occur faster than conversion to the less sterically encumbered conformer 16. Subsequent deprotonation to generate dianion 19, which is constrained to exist as the unusual Z-enolate, followed by alkylation provides the other diastereomer 21, which is formed in an amount nearly equal to 20. 

The spin-lattice relaxation times of essentially all the protons in vindoline, measured by a Fourier transform method, show values reflecting the degree of steric interaction with other protons. (276) A wealth of coupling constant data has been made available by first order analysis of the 300 MHz NMR spectrum of vindolinine [458]. (277) H NMR shifts for the metabolite of vindoline [459] (278) are shown on the structure. 

If none of the partners is linear 6 degrees of rotational and translational degrees of freedom will be transformed into vibrational ones. The additional intermolecular vibration is a torsional motion. If the proton donor is polyatomic there will be vt and v2 and other essentially intramolecular vibrations while in the case of HC1 only vx can exist.
