A pair of 3D HNCO-based experiments have been developed with the aim of optimizing the precision of measurement of (1)J(NH) couplings. Both pulse sequences record (1)J(NH) coupling evolution during the entire constant time interval that (15)N magnetization is dephasing or rephasing with respect to the directly bonded (13)C' nucleus, with (15)N(13)C' multiple quantum coherence maintained during the (13)C' evolution period. The first experiment, designed for smaller proteins, produces an apparent doubling of the (1)J(NH) coupling without any accompanying increases in line width. The second experiment is a J-scaled TROSY-HNCO experiment in which the (1)J(NH) coupling is measured by frequency difference between resonances offset symmetrically about the position of the downfield component of the (15)N doublet (i.e. the TROSY resonance). This experiment delivers significant gains in precision of (1)J(NH) coupling measurement compared to existing J-scaled TROSY-HNCO experiments. With the proper choice of acquisition parameters and sufficient sensitivity to acquire a 3D TROSY-HNCO experiment, it is shown that (1)J(NH) couplings can be measured with a precision which approaches or exceeds the precision of measurement with which the frequency of the TROSY resonance itself can be determined.

A distinguished triplet splitting pattern for the N-H couplings in the proton signals of a series of protonated nitrogen bases-aliphatic and aromatic amines, as well as pyridines-with the weakly coordinating tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate anion, [B(CF)], is observed for the first time in nonaqueous media at room temperature. The effects of ion pairing, solvent parameters, and correlation between the δ, , and p values are reported.

Article Synopsis
- * With recent advancements in isotope labeling, nitrogen and carbon enriched metabolites are increasingly studied, but existing NMR techniques for metabolite analysis still struggle with deconvoluting data from mixtures.
- * A new NMR experiment, called broadband N-edited H-C HSQC, has been developed to better identify nitrogen-containing metabolites, resulting in significantly improved peak resolution compared to standard methods.
Covalence and π-electron delocalization influence on hydrogen bonds in proton transfer process of o-hydroxy aryl Schiff bases: A combined NMR and QTAIM analysis.

Within the framework of the density functional theory approach, we studied the relationship between the chemical nature of intramolecular hydrogen bonds (HBs) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) parameters, J-couplings and H-chemical shifts [δ(H)], of the atoms involved in such bonds in o-hydroxyaryl Schiff bases during the proton transfer process. For the first time, the shape of the dependence of the degree of covalence in HBs on J(N-H), J(O-H), J(O-N), and δ(H) during the proton transfer process in o-hydroxyaryl Schiff bases was analyzed. Parameters obtained from Bader's theory of atoms in molecules were used to assess the dependence of covalent character in HBs with both the NMR properties.

In Brønsted acid catalysis, hydrogen bonds play a crucial role for reactivity and selectivity. However, the contribution of weak hydrogen bonds or multiple acceptors has been unclear so far since it is extremely difficult to collect experimental evidence for weak hydrogen bonds. Here, our hydrogen bond and structural access to Brønsted acid/imine complexes was used to analyze BINOL-derived chiral disulfonimide (DSI)/imine complexes.
