Abstract. The application of anisotropic nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) parameters for the correct structural assignment of small molecules requires the use of partially ordered media. Previously we demonstrated that the use of P3D simulations using poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG) as an alignment medium allows for the determination of the correct diastereomer from extremely sparse NMR data. Through the analysis of the structural characteristics of small molecules in different alignment media, here we show that when steric or electrostatic factors dominate the alignment, P3D-PBLG retains its diastereomer discrimination power. We also demonstrate that P3D simulations can define the different conformations of a flexible small molecule from sparse NMR data.

A useful procedure is described to rapidly obtain Bragg-reflection intensities from the FULLPROF suite, and the Bragg intensities can then be input into the GEST and the PECKCRYST programs for crystal-structure determination of small molecules. An example on using the new procedure for the structure determination from powder diffraction determination of hydrochlorothiazide (C7H8ClN3O4S2) is presented, and the powder-structure results obtained by the PECKCRYST program are in good agreement with previously reported single-crystal results.

AbstractMicroED has recently emerged as a convenient and powerful tool for the unequivocal structure determination of small molecules and it could likely be used in cannabinoid research as well.
