,The structure of the straight silanes SinH2n+2 (1 ≤ n ≤ 7) and of the branched isomers isotetrasilane, iso- and neopentasilane, 2-silyl- and 3-silylpentasilane, 2,3-disilyltetrasilane as well as 2-silyl- and 3-silylhexasilane could be unambiguously elucidated by 29Si NMR spectroscopy. Systematic trends in the chemical shift and coupling parameters were observed and an empirical relationship between δ(29Si) of a 29Si nucleus and the number of the neighbouring silicon atoms in αβor γposition is given. In 1H decoupled spectra the nuclear Overhauser effect on the 29Si resonance was found to increase with increasing distance of the 29Si nucleus from the end of the chain. A complete analysis of the multi spin systems of disilane, trisilane and isotetrasilane was performed and the signs of the 29Si,H- and H,H-long range coupling constants were determined with regard to the negative sign of 1J(29SiH).

Nuclear Overhauser effect difference experiments on vitamins D2 and D3 at 400 MHz allow an unambiguous assignment to be made for the HE and HZ protons bonded to the C-19 carbon. This assignment is especially important since the A ring, and hence the C-19 atom, undergoes a conformational interconversion. The results indicate the importance of proton nOe difference experiments in determining points of configuration and they indicate that the assignment of resonances based on allylic coupling constants in a molecule undergoing a conformational equilibrium can be incorrect.

Proton magnetic resonance studies at 400 MHz allowed the complete assignment of the spectra for (6R)-prostaglandin I1 in phosphate buffer and in CDCl3 solutions. The spectral analysis was based on the nuclear Overhauser effect difference measurements, which also provide accurate chemical shifts and coupling constants. Conformational differences in the two solvents for the ring portion of the molecule are indicated.

The synthesis and stereochemistry of seven β-lactam derivatives of 1,5-benzothiazepines are presented. The configurational and conformational analysis is based on nuclear Overhauser effect experiments, together with analysis of the vicinal proton–proton coupling constants. In the preferred conformation, the seven-membered ring is in a half-chair. Only for one compound, 2-aza-4-bromo-4-methyl-5,7-diphenyl-8-thiatricyclo[7.4.0.02,5]trideca-Δ1,9,10,12-trien-3-one, were two diastereomers isolated (compounds 6a and 6b). Six of the compounds have the 4S*, 5R*, 7R* configuration while compound 6b has the 4R*, 5R*,7R* configuration.

Diastereoisomeric 1-chloro-1-phenyl-2-isothiocyanatopropanes have been prepared. They reacted stereospecifically with CH3Ona, diethylamine, aniline and NaSH to give pure cis or trans-4,5-disubstituted Δ2-thiazolines and thiazolidine-2-thiones whose configuration was determined using the nuclear Overhauser effect. The preponderant conformation of diastereoisomeric 1-chloro-1-phenyl-2-isothiocyanatopropanes was estimated on the basis of coupling constants of vicinal protons.

The conformational analysis of LTD4 in D2O was carried out based on the analysis of vicinal proton–proton coupling constants, nonselective proton longitudinal relaxation times, and nuclear Overhauser effect data. The H6—C6 to C12 region of the molecule is transoid, the predominant rotamer about C5—C6 is gauche, and two rotamers can be used to describe the rotation about C12—C13. There are three rotamers that can be used to describe the rotation about the C21—C22 bond of cysteine. Finally, chelation between an Yb3+, shift reagents and LTD4 was not observed.

High-field nuclear Overhauser effect difference measurements allowed the assignment of the proton resonances for (6S)-prostaglandin I1 in phosphate buffer solutions. The two-dimensional J proton magnetic resonance experiments complemented these studies, as they also allowed the structure of several multiplets to be obtained when these multiplets are hidden by nearby resonances in a normal spectrum. The chemical shifts and coupling constants are compared with the data obtained previously for (6R)-prostaglandin I1.
