The 13C n.m.r. spectra of a series of nitrogen-containing aromatic compounds have been simulated by using parametric techniques. The observed chemical shifts were related to numerically encoded structural parameters, called descriptors. The electronic and geometric descriptors were calculated after optimization of the molecular structures by using the MNDO semiempirical method. Subsequently, the method of stepwise, multiple linear regression was used to calculate coefficients relating the descriptors to the observed chemical shifts. This study involves 32 compounds such as pyridine, pyrimidine, triazine, pyridazine, and their methyl derivatives. Plotting of experimental against calculated chemical shifts for 23 carbon centres in the prediction set of five compounds shows a standard deviation of 1.41 ppm and a correlation coefficient of 0.999.

The proton chemical shifts of aromatic compounds are strongly concentration dependent. Moreever, for molecules with a dipole moment a temperature dependence of the proton chemical shifts is observed. For hemellitone, p-methylanisole, o-chlortoluene, p-chlortoluene, pyrrole and N-methyl-pyrrole the enthalpies of a dipole-dipole association between -0,7 and -1,8 Kcal could be estimated by NMR measurements combined with the temperature dependence in the whole range of the molefraction (0 → 1).

For decades, high-resolution 1H NMR spectroscopy has been routinely utilized to analyze both naturally occurring steroid hormones and synthetic steroids, which play important roles in regulating physiological functions in humans. Because the 1H signals are inevitably superimposed and entangled with various JH–H splitting patterns, such that the individual 1H chemical shift and associated JH–H coupling identities are hardly resolved. Given this, applications of thess information for elucidating steroidal molecular structures and steroid/ligand interactions at the atomic level were largely restricted. To overcome, we devoted to unraveling the entangled JH–H splitting patterns of two similar steroidal compounds having fully unsaturated protons, i.e., androstanolone and epiandrosterone (denoted as 1 and 2, respectively), in which only hydroxyl and ketone substituents attached to C3 and C17 were interchanged. Here we demonstrated that the JH–H values deduced from 1 and 2 are universal and applicable to other steroids, such as testosterone, 3β, 21-dihydroxygregna-5-en-20-one, prednisolone, and estradiol. On the other hand, the 1H chemical shifts may deviate substantially from sample to sample. In this communication, we propose a simple but novel scheme for resolving the complicate JH–H splitting patterns and 1H chemical shifts, aiming for steroidal structure determinations.

Cyclialkylation of naphthalene with 2,2,5,5-tetramethyltetrahydrofuranone yielded 2-keto-1,1,4,4-tetramethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroanthracene (1). Selenium dioxide oxidation of 1 yielded the corresponding diketone (3) and periodate cleavage of 3 yielded 2,3-naphthalene-diisobutyric acid (4). Hydride reduction of the dimethyl ester (6) of 4 yielded the diol, β,β′-dihydroxy-2,3-di-t-butylnaphthalene (7). The relative chemical shifts of aromatic protons of 1,2,4,5-tetraalkylbenzenes containing gem dimethyls are rationalized in terms of compression effects exerted by the bulky ortho groups. Nuclear magnetic resonance and ultraviolet spectral results for the ortho di-t-butyl aromatic derivatives 4, 6, and 7 are compared to the model cyclic compounds 1 and anhydride (5) of 4 in terms of the strain caused by bond angle deformations in the side chains.

Muscle quality is well-known to decrease with aging and is a risk factor for metabolic abnormalities. However, there is a lack of information on race-associated differences in muscle quality and other neuromuscular features related to functional performance. This study aimed to compare muscle quality, function, and morphological characteristics in Japanese and Brazilian older individuals. Eighty-four participants aged 65–87 years were enrolled in the study (42 Japanese: 23 men, 19 women, mean age 70.4 years; 42 Brazilians: 23 men, 19 women, mean age 70.8 years). Echo intensity (EI) and muscle thickness (MT) of the quadriceps femoris were measured using B-mode ultrasonography. A stepwise multiple linear regression analysis with EI as a dependent variable revealed that MT was a significant variable for Japanese participants (R2 = 0.424, P = 0.001), while MT and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SCAT) thickness were significant variables for Brazilian participants (R2 = 0.490, P = 0.001). A second stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed after excluding MT and SCAT thickness from the independent variables. Sex and age for Japanese participants (R2 = 0.381, P = 0.001) and lean body mass and body mass index for Brazilian participants (R2 = 0.385, P = 0.001) were identified as significant independent variables. The present results suggest that MT is closely correlated with muscle quality in Japanese and Brazilian older individuals. Increases in muscle size may induce decreases in intramuscular adipose tissue and/or connective tissues, which are beneficial for reducing the risks of metabolic impairments in Japanese and Brazilian older individuals.

Amidoxime derivatives have practically valuable biological properties. We have previously obtained new spiropyrazolinium compounds by arylsulfo-chlorination of β-aminopropioamidoximes, but in case of β-(benzimidazol-1-yl)pro-pioamidoxime we have obtained O-substitution product – 3-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)-N'-(tosyloxy)pro-panimidamide. The aim of the work is predicting of structural parameters (bond lengths, bond angles), vibrational frequencies and NMR spectra of 3-(1H-benzo-[d]imidazol-1-yl)-N'-(tosyloxy)propanimidamide. The calculations were performed using Gaussian 09 package. Structural parameters and vibrational frequencies was calculated using DFT (B3LYP/B3PW91/WB97XD)/6-31G(d,p). 1H and 13C NMR was predicted using DFT B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)-GIAO in DMSO. All calculated values are in good agreement with experimental data. The calculated bond lengths and bond angles were compared with results of X-ray structural analysis. The best correlation coefficient was 0.981 (calcu-lations with B3LYP level). For bond angles, the best result was obtained with B3LYP level (0.990). For vibrational frequencies correlation coefficients between the calculated and experimental values were 0.997 (B3LYP), 0.996 (B3PW91) and 0.995 (WB97XD). The most accurate method was used for predic-ting NMR spectrum. The correlation coefficients between the experimental and calculated 1H and 13C chemical shifts were 0.949 and 0.999 respectively.
