Porphyrin nanorods were prepared by ion-association between free-base meso 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(4-[Formula: see text]-methylpyridinium)porphyrin cations and tetraphenylborate anions. The nanorods have variable lengths (up to a few micrometers long) and diameters ([Formula: see text]50–500 nm). Their structure at the molecular level was elucidated by combining multinuclear solid state NMR spectroscopy, synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction and DFT calculations.

Nimustine hydrochloride [systematic name: 4-amino-5-({[N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-nitrosocarbamoyl]amino}methyl)-2-methylpyrimidin-1-ium chloride], C9H14ClN6O2+·Cl−, is a prodrug of CENU (chloroethylnitrosourea) and is used as a cytostatic agent in cancer therapy. Its crystal structure was determined from laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data. The protonation at an N atom of the pyrimidine ring was established by solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

AbstractA reliable method for molecular structure determination, excluding single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), has been applied to six methyl glycoside tetrabenzoates. The proposed method is based on a global conformational search using molecular mechanics and subsequent DFT calculations guided by a solid-state NMR experiment. The accuracy of the applied method has been verified on three methyl glycoside benzoates for which the SCXRD analysis has been completed. It appeared that the calculated conformations of unprivileged energy could be found in the solid state. Bulky substituents (benzoates) exerted less energetically favored interactions in crystals in contrast to isolated molecules. Therefore, solid-state NMR was revealed to be an indispensable approach for choosing credible conformations from the calculated conformations.
