The proton magnetic resonance spectrum of methyl mercaptan has been analyzed on the basis of the nuclear grouping AB3. The spectrum calculated for [Formula: see text] agrees very well with that observed.

The proton magnetic resonance spectrum at 60 MHz of pyrrole, spin- decoupled from 14N, has been studied under high resolution. Similar studies have been made on [N-D]pyrrole in which the proton spectrum was obtained simultaneously spin-decoupled from both the 14K and 2H nuclei. Analysis of the 13C-H spectra of pyrrole and [N-D]pyrrole, observed in natural abundance, gave values for all six proton-proton spin-spin couplings. Values for some of the couplings have been obtained directly and unambiguously from the spectra of samples of [S-H]pyrrole and [N- D]pyrrole in which the C-H protons have been predominantly exchanged for deuterium. The values for the couplings derived are J1,2 2.60, J1,3 2.45, J2,3 2.69, J2,4 1.44, J2,5 1.87, and J3,4 3.34 Hz.

Methyl-12-dimethylsilastearate was synthesized and incorporated by sonication into lecithin vesicles. In the resulting mixed vesicle the nuclear magnetic resonance line width of the Si-methyl resonance line is proportional to the lecithin–silastearate ratio, indicating interaction between the hydrocarbon chains of the phospholipid and the labelled fatty acid ester reporter molecule. The Si-methyl line reports selectively perturbations of the structure of hydrophobic regions as shown by addition of hydrocarbons. The N-methyl resonance line of lecithin is not affected by these changes, but indicates selectively effects on the hydrophilic exterior of the micelle produced by salts. The mixed vesicle may therefore be used as a membrane model allowing simultaneous observation of effects on the exterior and interior of the lipid bilayer.The silastearate label was successfully incorporated into Acholeplasma laidlawii membrane, which however failed to give a sufficiently resolved nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum.
