13C Chemical shifts, longitudinal relaxation times and some nuclear Overhauser enhancement factors of the individual carbon atoms in the chloroplast lipid, 1,2-diacyl-3-(6-sulpho-α-quinovosyl)-sn-glycerol (sl), have been measured in the three solvents: methanol[D4], chloroform[D] and water[D2]. Correlation times for the individual carbon atoms calculated from these results have been interpreted in terms of different secondary structures: a monomeric structure in methanol[D4], an inverted micellar structure in chloroform[D] and a bilayer vesicular structure in water[D2]. Substituent shift parameters have been determined for the sulphonic acid group from a series of alkanesulphonic acids and these have been used in the 13C chemical shift assignments in sl and a series of model compounds.

13C chemical shifts, longitudinal relaxation times and some nuclear Overhauser enhancement factors of individual carbon atoms in the chloroplast lipid, 3-sn-phosphatidylglycerol (pg), have been measured in (D4)methanol and (D)chloroform. Correlation times for individual carbon atoms calculated from these results have been interpreted in terms of different secondary structures: a monomeric structure in (D4)methanol and an inverted micelle in (D)chloroform. Differences in structures between the four major lipid components of the chloroplast membrane are briefly discussed.
