A polyoxometalate-silver ethynide composite cluster, [Ag42(CO3){C≡CC(CH3)3}27(α-A-SiW9Nb3O40)2](-) (1), demonstrates that we can select the binding site of a polyoxometalate to the silver alkynide cluster by tuning the surface charge of the precursor polyoxometalate. Multidimensional and multinuclear NMR spectra revealed that 1 maintains its precise atomic connectivity in the solution.

Self-assembly and self-selection of a single linkage isomer of a mixed-metal molecular triangle with ferrocene functionality have been achieved using an ambidentate ligand, and the product was characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal structure determination.

Intramolecular proton transfer in rifampicin (1) and its analogues 2-9 with the formation of zwitterions has been indicated by multinuclear NMR and crystallographic studies. Biological tests of 1-9 in combination with the analysis of ligand-protein interactions have revealed the relationship between the protonation site and extremely high antibacterial activity.

The reaction of 2,2,2-nitrilotriacetic acid with phosphorus pentachloride furnished 2,2,2-nitrilotriacetyl chloride (1), a useful chemical intermediate for various further reactions. The compound has been fully characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, vibrational analysis (IR and Raman), mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the crystal structure of 1 has been determined...

The knowledge of the three-dimensional (3D) structures and conformational dynamics of proteins and peptides is important for the understanding of biochemical and genetic data derived for these molecules. This understanding can ultimately be of help in drug design. We describe here the role of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in this process for three distinct situations: for small ...

Based on a semiflexible trisilacyclohexane framework series of directed, tridentate Lewis acids were synthesized by hydrosilylation using various (chloro)methylsilanes. The axial alignment the three electron deficient functions in one spatial direction allows creating poly-Lewis with chalice-like cavities. obtained quantitative yields and characterized multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, CHN analysi...

A number of diorganotin(IV) complexes with Schiffbase have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, conductance measurements, molecular weight determinations, infrared, electronic and multinuclear magnetic resonance ((1)H, (13)C and (119)Sn NMR) spectral data. The molar conductivity data shows non-electrolytic nature of complexes. The bidentate nature of the ligands is inferred...

The title compound, i.e., [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)(PPh2NHnPr)] (2), was obtained in a 71% yield by reacting toluene solution of the chlorophosphine complex [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)(PPh2Cl)] (1) with two equivalents n-propylamine at room temperature. aminophosphine 2 characterized elemental analysis, multinuclear NMR (31P{1H}, 1H and 13C{1H}) IR spectroscopy. In addition, its catalytic behavior hydration ...

Although magnesium fulfills several essential biochemical roles, direct studies on this ion are complicated by its unfavorable spectroscopic characteristics. This contribution explores the possibility of monitoring magnesium-nucleic acid binding via a combination of [Co(NH3)6]3+ as surrogate for [Mg(H2O)6]2+, and of high-resolution solid-state 59Co NMR as a spectroscopic probe. Such strategy qu...
