Practical strategies for the structural elucidation of small organic molecules are described for
typical organic chemists. The analysis of an unknown is divided into three stages. First …

A general review of novel NMR methods to measure heteronuclear long-range proton–
carbon coupling constants (n J CH; n> 1) in small molecules is made. NMR experiments are …

Stereochemical assignments for diastereomers, when an X-ray crystallographic structure
could not be obtained, has always been based on the analysis of their solution NMR …

A new fluorous PCP pincer ligand has been coordinated to Ni (II), Pd (II) and Pt (II). The air
stable palladium complex, which promotes Heck reactions between methyl acrylate and …

Bacterial polysaccharides are comprised of a variety of monosaccharides, L-rhamnose (6-
deoxy-L-mannose) being one of them. This sugar is often part of α-(1→ 2)-and/or α-(1→ 3) …

The direct and accurate determination of heteronuclear (nJHX, X= 19F, 31P) couplings from
the one dimensional 1H-NMR spectrum is severely hampered due to the simultaneous …

Long-range 1H, 13C coupling constants (n J CH) are underutilized parameters for
stereochemical structure determination, primarily because they are not easy to measure …

A new technique to deconvolute complex 1H NMR spectra of small molecules has been
developed that utilizes shape selective pulses to simultaneously decouple multiple protons …

We have synthesised a new aromatic foldamer based on the carbazole–pyridine oligomers
that adopt helical conformations via dipole–dipole interactions and π-stacking between two …

The synthesis of two novel carbasugar analogues of α-l-iduronic acid is described in which
the ring-oxygen is replaced by a methylene group. In analogy with the conformational …
