The cadmium(Ⅱ)-carboxylate complexes of monocarboxylates and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) in an aqueous solution were investigated using 113Cd NMR spectroscopy. From these spectral data the chemical shifts of the monocarboxylate (e.g. acetate, benzoate and propanoate) complexes of Cd(Ⅱ) were evaluated (CdL+: -22 to -24 ppm range; CdL2: -39 to -40 ppm range; L: carboxylate). The chemical shift of cadmium(Ⅱ) bound on PAA changed in value from -36.6 to -38.2 ppm when the [PAA]/[Cd] ratios were varied from 12 to 118 eq/mol at a constant pH of 6. The 113Cd chemical shift was sensitive to the change in solution pH: the chemical shift changed from 1.6 to -37.6 ppm when the pH was rasied from 1 to 6 at a constant [PAA]/[Cd] ratio of 39 eq/mol. These results show that under these conditions, the dominant species formed in solution is 1 : 2 complex (CdL2), and 1 : 1 complex (CdL+) is only formed at low pH, when polyanion concentration is low.

When 1H NMR spectra of pyridine, 4-amino-, 4-methyl-, and 4-cyanopyridine coordinated to the paramagnetic polyoxometalate, [SiW11CoⅡO39]6- in D2O are compared, both α- and β-proton peaks are shifted upfield as the basicity of the ligand decreases. The isotropic shifts are separated into contact and pseudocontact contributions by assuming that the contact shifts are proportional to the isotropic shifts of the same ligands coordinated to [SiW11NiⅡO39]6-. This separation reveals that the shift variations with the axial ligand basicity are dominated by changes in the magnetic anisotropy (pseudocontact shift) of [SiW11CoⅡ(ptl)O39]6- (ptl=pyridine-type ligand). The magnitude of the magnetic anisotropy in a series of pyridine-type ligands increases linearly as the pKa of their conjugate acids decreases.

The complexation of ethylammonium ion by alkyl p-tert-butylcalix[6]aryl ester derivatives was studied via measurements of proton and carbon spin-lattice relaxation times $(T_1)$ and chemical shift changes in solution state $(CDCl_3)$. The results indicate that the endo-type complexes are formed and that the overall tumbling rates of these complexes are more rapid than those of the corresponding free hosts. The association constants for these complexes in $THF-d_8$ were determined by $^1H$ NMR titration at several different temperatures to estimate the relevant thermodynamic parameters. The logK's for ethylammonium complexes of methyl, ethyl, and propyl esters at 313 K, for example, were found to be 1.56, 3.41, and 3.08, respectively. The complexes formed may be thought of as being kinetically stable in view of their $^1H$ NMR behavior in 2 : 1 host/guest solution.

${\beta}$-CD and CM- ${\beta}$-CD as chiral NMR shift agents were used to resolve the enantiomers of noradrenaline (NA). The stoichiometry of each complex formed between the CDs and the enantiomers of NA was found to be 1 : 1 through the continuous variation plots. The binding constants (K) of the complexes were determined from $^1H$ NMR titration curves. This result indicated that both ${\beta}$-CD and CM- ${\beta}$-CD formed the complexes with the S(+)-NA more preferentially than its R(-)-enantiomer. The K values for the complexes with ${\beta}$-CD ($K_{S(+)}$ = 537 $M^{-1}$ and $K_{R(-)}$ = 516 $M^{-1}$ was larger than those with CM- ${\beta}$-CD ($K_{S(+)}$ = 435 $M^{-1}$ and $K_{R(-)}$ = 313 $M^{-1}$), however, enantioselectivity (${\alpha}$) of S(+)- and R(-)-NA to CM- ${\beta}$-CD ( ${\alpha}$ = 1.38) was larger than that to ${\beta}$-CD ( ${\alpha}$ = 1.04), indicating that CM- ${\beta}$-CD was the better chiral NMR solvating agents for the recognition of the enantiomers of NA. Two dimensional rotating frame nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (ROESY) experiments were also performed to explain the binding properties in terms of spatial fitting of the NA molecule into the macrocyclic cavities.

Inclusion complexation of 1,7,21,27-tetraaza[7.1.7.1]paracyclophane (CPM 55) with 2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene (2,7-DHN) or 1,3-dihydroxynaphthalene (1,3-DHN) in pD 1.17 $DCl-D_2O$ solution was investigated by $^1H$ nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) using 4,4'-dimethylaminodiphenylmethane (ACM 11) as an acyclic analog of CPM 55. In CPM 55-naphthalene derivative complex, alkyl protons located in the cavity of CPM 55 were shown to be subjected to anisotropic shielding and protons of naphthalene moiety shifted remarkably to upfield. However, in ACM 11-naphthalene derivative systems, chemical shifts for protons of both DHN compounds were not significant. The remarkable chemical shift changes suggested that the naphthalene moiety of 2,7-DHN or 1,3-DHN was included in the hydrophobic cavity of CPM 55 in aqueous solution. From the continuous variation plots of induced chemical shifts of 2,7-DHN, it was found that 2,7-DHN was included in the cavity of CPM 55 at 1:1 molar stoichiometry. Both computer simulation of a inclusion complex and strong upfield chemical shift changes of 2,7-DHN protons supported the conformation of pseudoaxial inclusion as the presumed geometry of the host-guest complex.

Hsp31 protein is one of the members of DJ-1 superfamily proteins and has a dimeric structure of which molecular weight (MW) is 62 kDa. The mutation of DJ-1 is closely related to early onset of Parkinson's disease. Hsp31 displays $Zn^{+2}$-binding activity and was first reported to be a holding chaperone in E. coli. Its additional glyoxalase III active has recently been characterized. Moreover, an incubation at $60^{\circ}C$ induces Hsp31 protein to form a high MW oligomer (HMW) in vitro, which accomplishes an elevated holding chaperone activity. The NMR technique is elegant method to probe any local or global structural change of a protein in responses to environmental stresses (heat, pH, and metal). Although the presence of the backbone chemical shifts (bbCSs) is a prerequisite for detailed NMR analyses of the structural changes, general HSQC-based triple resonance experiments could not be used for 62 kDa Hsp31 protein. Here, we prepared the per-deuterated Hsp31 and performed the TROSY-based triple resonance experiments for the bbCSs assignment. Here, detailed processes of per-deuteration and the NMR experiments are described for other similar NMR approaches.

The topoisomerase II poisoning effect of certain protoberberine alkaloids is associated with anti-cancer activity. Structure-activity relationships of protoberberine analogues substituted on the ring protons reveal that substitution at the C19 position is an important determinant of biological activity. In this study, the effects of substituent modification at the C19 position on the interaction of protoberberines with DNA are determined using UV and NMR spectroscopy. The line broadening effect on aliphatic resonances, chemical shift changes of the imino protons of HP14 upon berberine and berberrubine binding to HP14, and the rate of the exchange process between protoberberine analogs bound indicate that berberrubine binds HP14 more specifically than berberine. In addition, the free HP14 is altered by the substituent at the 19-position. UV spectra of berberrubine have shown a hypochromic effect together with a slight red shift, which are usually regarded as characteristics of DNA intercalation. These results are consistent with our previous report that the berberrubine is partially intercalated with HP14 with molar ratio 1 : 1, whereas a non-specific interaction is predominant between the berberine and HP14.

A continuous flow hyperpolarized (HP) $^{129}Xe$ NMR spectroscopy was employed for the first time to investigate $TiO_2$ nanotubes (Ti-NTs) synthesized from commercial nanoparticles with different reaction times. A single peak attributing to channels for Ti-NTs was observed for variable temperature HP $^{129}Xe$ NMR spectra. It was also noted that there is alteration in value for heat of adsorption, ${\Delta}H$ from $12.6{\pm}1.3$ to $16.4{\pm}0.4kJ/mol$ and variation in chemical shift of the xenon adsorbed in channels, ${\delta}_s$ from $120{\pm}2\sim135{\pm}9ppm$ which were closely correlated to channel length and it was shown that P25-24 Ti-NTs with longest channel is most favorite Ti-NTs for Xe adsorption.

To study the NMR chemical shift arising from the 5f-electron orbital angular momentum and the 5f-electron spin dipolar-nuclear spin angular momentum interactions, the evaluation of the hyperfine integrals has been extended to any pairs of SCF type 5f orbitals adopting a general method which is applicable to a general vector R, pointing in any direction in space. From the electronic wavefunctions for 5f orbitals expressed in common coordinate system, the radial part of the hyperfine interaction integrals are derived by translating the exponential part, r2 exp(-2βr), in terms of R, rN and the modified Bessel functions. The radial integals for 5f orbitals are tabulated in analytical forms. When two of the hyperfine integrals along the (100), (010), (001), (110), and (111) axes are calculated using the derived radial integrals, the calculated values for the 5f system change sign for R-values larger than R　0.35 nm. But the calculated values for the 4f systems change sign for R-values larger than R　0.20 nm.

The efficient use of a chiral shift agent (3) containing bifunctional group (thiourea and tertiary amine) for the determination of the enantiomeric purity of racemic mixture (Hemiesters) has been studied. The diastereomeric complexes derived from a chiral shift agent (3) with various hemiesters gave rise to well separate signals of the methoxy protons of hemiesters. Good splitting signals for enantiomers of hemiesters in ¹H NMR are originated form the hydrogen bonds between carbonyl groups of hemiester and bifunctional groups of a chiral shift agent (3) such as thiourea moiety and tertiary amine. This study provides a quick and simple way to determine the chiral purity of hemiester using chiral transfer agent (3).
