The carbon-13 magnetic resonance spectra of cyathin A3 and several related compounds have been measured and the chemical shifts have been assigned. The chemical shift data have been used to determine the stereochemistry at C-1 in cyafrin A4 and to determine the position of the bromine in 1-bromoallocyathin A3 methyl acetal.

Chemical-shift and coupling-constant data for protons in 68 flavan derivatives are reported. Coupling-constant data for interactions involving the 2-, 3-, and 4-protons have been used to define the configuration of the 2-, 3-, and 4-substituents and the conformation of the heterocyclic ring. It is shown that chemical-shift data for protons of the heterocyclic ring and of 3- and 4-acetoxyl groups are of little value in stereochemical studies. Analysis of the absorptions of the aromatic protons shows that N.M.R. is useful for determining the oxygenation pattern in rings A and B.

17O chemical shift data (natural abundance) for 3-substituted phthalic anhydrides and 4- and 7-substituted phthalides in acetonitrile at 75 °C are reported. Steric interactions of substituents ortho to the carbonyl groups result in deshielding effects (9–22 ppm) relative to parent compounds regardless of the electronic character of the substituents. Factors contributing to the deshielding effects are discussed. The relationship between 17O chemical shifts and regiochemistry of the phthalic anhydrides is discussed.

Carbon-13 chemical shift data have been obtained for a number of isothiazole, benzo[c]isothiazole, 1,2-dithiole, and 1,3-dithiole derivatives. A number of these compounds are thiones and the chemical shifts of the C=S carbons are discussed in the light of recent attempts to predict such chemical shifts from those of the analogous carbonyl compounds. Comparisons of substituent chemical shift (s.c.s.) effects in these heterocyclic compounds with those in simpler aromatic or conjugated systems have been made and additivity correlations tested in a number of cases.

The carbon-13 N.M.R. spectra of eleven substituted tricarbonylcyclohexadienyliron salts (1) have been determined and individual resonances assigned. Substituent effects have been deduced and compared with corresponding effects in cyclohexadienyl cations. The structures of the tricarbonylcyclohexadienyliron salts are discussed with reference to chemical shift data. The proportions of irreversible nucleophilic attack at the terminal positions in the unsymmetrical 2-substituted salts are compared with the observed chemical shifts at these carbon atoms.

Chemical shift data for the formyl proton in some 30 aromatic aldehydes are reported. It was found that meta- and para-substituted benzaldehydes exhibited this peak in the range 9.65–10.20 δ, while ortho-substituted compounds appear at lower field, 10.20–10.50 δ; the former shifts show an approximate correlation with the Hammett sigma parameter. Evidence for steric inhibition of resonance is presented for some ortho-substituted compounds and some interesting solvent effects are discussed.

Carbon-13 n.m.r. chemical shifts are reported for diphenylmethane and nine methylated derivatives. Results are compared with those for related methylbenzenes. In the case of tri-ortho-substituted materials the predominance of a perpendicular conformation is suggested. Ring current calculations show that in contrast to the 1H chemical shift interpretations, the 13C shielding trends cannot originate primarily from anisotropic effects.

13C nmr chemical shifts are reported for some aromatic and aliphatic tellurium compounds. For a given organic group, the shift of the C1 atom varies in the order [Formula: see text], as expected from electronegative considerations. The C2 atom experiences an opposite trend while the C3 and C4 atoms of the ring experience smaller changes. The chemical shifts of para-substituted aromatic tellurium compounds do not show additivity of contributions from the substituents.

77Se and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra have been measured for selenols (RSeH), diselenides (RSeSeR), and selenenyl sulfides (RSeSR′), including selenenyl sulfides formed by reaction of glutathione and penicillamine with selenocystine and related diselenides. Exchange processes strongly affect the 77Se and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of all three classes of compounds. Sharp, exchange-averaged resonances are observed in the 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of selenols; however, selenol proton exchange causes the 77Se resonances to be extremely broad over the pH range where the selenol group is titrated. Selenol/diselenide exchange [Formula: see text] also results in exchange-averaged 1H resonances for solutions containing RSeH and RSeSeR; however, the 77Se resonances were too broad to detect. Exchange reactions have similar effects on nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of solutions containing selenols and selenenyl sulfides. The results indicate selenol/diselenide exchange is much faster than thiol/disulfide exchange. The 77Se chemical shift depends on the chemical state of the selenium, e.g., titration of the selenol group of selenocysteamine causes the 77Se resonance to be shielded by 164 ppm, oxidation of the selenol to form the diselenide selenocystamine causes a deshielding of 333 ppm, and oxidation to form the selenenyl sulfide [Formula: see text] results in a deshielding of 404 ppm. 77Se chemical shifts were found to be in the range −240 to −270 ppm (relative to (CH3)2Se) for selenolates, approximately −80 ppm for selenols, 230–360 ppm for diselenides, and 250–340 ppm for selenenyl sulfides. The 77Se chemical shift is also affected by titration of neighboring carboxylic acid and ammonium groups, and their pkA values can be calculated from 77Se chemical shift data.

Chemical shifts and coupling constants are tabulated for the protons of the pyrrolizidine nucleus in 40 pyrrolizidine alkaloids and derivatives. The effect of acylation of hydroxyl substituents on C7 and C9 and the very large difference in chemical shift of the H9 protons in the macrocyclic diester alkaloids is discussed. The direction of buckling of the saturated ring can be ascertained from the H5,H6 vicinal coupling constants or from the width of the H7 multiplet if H7 bears an oxygen substituent. In general, retronecine derivatives are exo-buckled whereas heliotridine derivatives consist of interconverting exo- and endo-buckled forms.

The [Formula: see text] values for 3-pentanone, 2-butanone, and 3-methyl-2-butanone have been determined from chemical shift data. The values (−7.6, −7.1, and −7.2, respectively) are in good agreement with those previously determined for aliphatic ketones by use of ultraviolet–visible and Raman spectroscopy.
