Mixing of metallocyclic trimers and tetramers in an exact 1 : 1.5 stoichiometry provided new supramolecular triangles in quantitative yields. Characterization of the new hetero-nuclear metallomacrocycles was achieved by (1)H, 2D-COSY, 2D-NOESY, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, along with ESI and TWIM mass spectrometry. Gradient tandem MS (gMS(2)) provided insight into the stabilities of the binuclea...

Speeding up the acquisition of multidimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra is an important topic in contemporary NMR, with central roles in high-throughput investigations and analyses of marginally stable samples. A variety of fast NMR techniques have been developed, including methods based on non-uniform sampling and Hadamard encoding, that overcome the long sampling times inhere...

A multi-step NMR based screening assay is described for identifying and evaluating chemical leads for their ability to bind a target protein. The multi-step NMR assay provides structure-related information while being an integral part of a structure based drug discovery and design program. The fundamental principle of the multi-step NMR assay is to combine distinct 1D and 2D NMR techniques, in ...

A series of nanocomposites have been prepared from perfluorosulfonylfluoride copolymer resin (Nafion) and layered montmorillonite (MMT) modified with protonated dodecylamine by conventional sol-gel intercalation. The structure of these nanocomposite materials have been characterized using FT-IR, elemental analysis, XRD and solid state NMR techniques, including 19F magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR...

Ethanolic crude extract of I. imbricata Lindl. (Iridaceae) was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel with varying portions of MeOH: CHCl3. Nigicin (irisolone) was isolated and its identification carried out by IR, UV, MS, 1-D and 2-D NMR spectroscopy.
