AbstractObjectives and new findings, ends with short conclusion, no referencesThe synthesis and turnover of triglyceride in adipose tissue involves enzymes with preferences for specific fatty acid classes and/or regioselectivity with regard to the fatty acid position within the glycerol moiety. The focus of the present study was to characterize both the fatty acid composition and their positional distribution in triglycerides of biopsied human subcutaneous adipose tissue using 13C NMR spectroscopy. The triglyceride sn2 position was significantly more enriched with monounsaturated fatty acids compared to the sn1,3 sites, while saturated fatty acids abundance was significantly lower in the sn2 position compared to that of sn1,3. Furthermore, the analysis revealed significant positive correlations between the total fraction of palmitoleic acid with both BMI and HOMA-IR scores. Additionally, we established that 13C NMR chemical shifts for ω −3 signals, centered at 31.9 ppm, provided superior resolution of the most abundant FA species, including palmitoleate, compared to the ω −2 signals that were used previously. 13C NMR spectroscopy reveals for the first time a highly non-homogenous distribution of FA in the glycerol sites of human adipose tissue triglyceride and that these distributions are correlated with different phenotypes such as BMI and insulin resistance.

2,7-Dimethyl-2,6-octadiene is formed in the catalytic solution for the dimerization of 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene to β-myrcene (3-methylene-7-methyl-1,6-octadiene), as revealed by mass spectrometry and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Visual observations together with the results of gas chromatographic analysis of the catalytic solution suggest that the formation of 2,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiene is associated with the transition of the alkali metal (sodium) from the solid phase into the solution. A reaction pathway is suggested accounting for the formation of 2,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiene in the system.

Two new alkaloids were isolated from the field ergot. Their structures, N-(D-lysergyl-L-valyl)cyclo(L-valyl-D-prolyl) (IV) and N-(D-lysergyl-L-valyl)cyclo(L-leucyl-D-prolyl) (V), were assigned by mass, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy.

3β-Acetoxy-21,22-dioxo-18α,19βH-ursan-28,20β-olide (IIIa) reacts with acetic anhydride in pyridine under very mild conditions affording β-lactone IVa and γ-lactones Va and VIIa as condensation products. On reaction with pyridine, lactones Va and VIIa undergo elimination of acetic acid to give unsaturated lactones VIIIa and IXa, respectively. Similarly, the condensation of 20β,28-epoxy-21,22-dioxo-18α,19βH-ursan-3β-yl acetate (IIIb) with acetic anhydride leads to β-lactone IVb and γ-lactone Vb; the latter on heating with pyridine affords unsaturated lactone VIIIb and 21-methylene-22-ketone Xb. The structure of the obtained compounds was derived using spectral methods, particularly 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy; structure of lactone IVa was confirmed by X-ray diffraction.

The structure of a new compound formed in the reaction of ethoxyquin with alkylperoxy radicals was resolved by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy (including COSY, NOESY, HHC RCT and SSLR INEPT techniques) and confirmed by mass spectrometry. The structure suggest participation of 4-methyl group of ethoxyquin in the deactivation of peroxy radicals. A mechanism of this reaction is proposed.

Sodium hexaethyl-2,4-dicarba-nido-hexaborate(1-) (6), available from hexaethyl-2,4-dicarba- nido-hexaborane(8) (4) by deprotonation, reacts with deuterated methanol, CD3OD, to give back 4 without H/D exchange of the B-H-B hydrogen atom. The reaction of 6 with diethylboron chloride, Et2BCl, affords hexaethyl-2,4-dicarba-closo-hexaborane(6) (7), the first example of a peralkylated carborane of this type. In contrast, the reaction of 6 with boron tribromide, BBr3, leads mainly to 2,3,4,5,6,7-hexaethyl-2,4-dicarba-closo-heptaborane(7) (8), together with the corresponding 1-bromo derivative (9) and the closo-carborane 7 as side products. The reaction of two equivalents of 6 with FeCl2 gives the air-stable sandwich complex bis[hexaethyl-2,4-dicarba-nido-hexaborate(1-)]iron 10 which was characterised by X-ray structural analysis. All products were characterised by 1H, 11B and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy was used to study 10.

The intramolecular nucleophilic addition of N-methyl-N-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)glycine anion in methanol-dimethyl sulfoxide mixtures produces spiro[(3-methyl-5-oxazolidinone)-2,1'-(2',4',6'-trinitrobenzenide)]. The spiro adduct has been identified by means of 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. This is the first case when the formation of a Meisenheimer adduct with carboxylate ion is observed. Logarithm of the equilibrium constant of adduct formation increases linearly with the mole fraction of dimethyl sulfoxide in its mixture with methanol.
