The chemical modifications of poly (vinyl chloride) with aliphatic and aromatic alcohols compounds have been investigated at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, catalysed by a new green basic catalyst, the Maghnite-K. The presence of ether groups in the products is proven by infra red spectroscopy (IR) as well as by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR), and characterized by i...

The combination of different experimental techniques, such as solid 13C and 1H magic-angle spinning NMR spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction, together with theoretical calculations allows the determination of the unique structure directing the role of the bulky aromatic proton sponge 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene (DMAN) towards the extra-large-pore ITQ-51 zeo...

Recent applications of high-field NMR spectroscopy in biosynthesis will be discussed. The emphasis of the lecture will be on the use of 1H, 3H, '3C and '5N-NMR to focus on individual steps of biochemical processes in the formation of natural products and related enzyme-catalyzed events. In the first set of experiments, pulse labelling and invivo studies are used to uncover biosynthetic sequence...

Xanthomonas is a genus of phytopathogenic bacteria, which produces a slimy, polysaccharide matrix known as xanthan gum, which involves, protects and helps the bacteria during host colonization. Although broadly used as a stabilizer and thickener in the cosmetic and food industries, xanthan gum can be a troubling artifact in molecular investigations due to its rheological properties. In particul...

The solution conformation of the 27 residue polypeptide hormone secretin has been investigated by 1H-NMR spectroscopy under conditions where it adopts a fully ordered structure as judged by circular dichroism spectroscopy, namely in an aqueous solution of 40% (v/v) trifluoroethanol. Using a combination of two-dimensional NMR techniques the 1H-NMR spectrum of secretin is completely assigned and ...

The growing number of sequenced microbial genomes has revealed a remarkably large number of secondary metabolite biosynthetic clusters for which the compounds are still unknown. The aim of the present work was to apply a strategy to detect newly induced natural products by cultivating microorganisms in different fermentation conditions. The metabolomic analysis of 4160 fractions generated from ...

A reaction of equimolar equivalents 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbohydrazide (1) and indoline-2,3-dione (2) in boiling ethanol for 4 h under acidic conditions gave 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-N’-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbohydrazide (3) 88% yield. The structure 3 was ascertained by NMR spectroscopy single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

2-Cyano-3-(1-phenyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)acrylamide (3) was synthesized in 90% yield from condensation of equimolar equivalents 1-phenyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (1) and 2-cyanoacetamide (2) boiling ethanol under basic condition for 45 min. The structure 3 determined using NMR spectroscopy single crystal X-ray diffraction.

Abstract. Resonance assignment and structural studies of larger proteins by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) can be challenging when exchange broadening, multiple stable conformations, 1H back-exchange the fully deuterated chain pose problems. These difficulties arise for SARS-CoV-2 Main Protease, a homodimer 2 × 306 residues. We demonstrate that combination four-dimensional (4D) TROSY-NOESY-TR...
