Drug-nucleic acid complexes have been studied extensively using lH-and 31P-nmr.l,2 While '3C-nmr has recently been used to investigate the conformational mobility of nucleic acid fragments,3-6 relatively few 13C-nmr studies of drug-nucleic acid complexes have been reported.3.7 In this communication,

Abstract
^13^C n.m.r. pulsed Fourier transform spectra were measured and interpreted for actinomycin D and for two related peptide derivatives: BOC‐Pro‐Sar‐OCH~3~ and BOC‐Sar‐Meval‐OCH~3~. Actinomycin D, specifically enriched with ^13^C in the chromophoric C‐methyl and in the peptide N‐methyl carbons, was produced biosynthetically. Enrichment of specific N‐methyl carbons in the model peptides was effected synthetically. Spectral assignments relied on the use of the enriched samples and particularly on off‐resonance and selective low power ^1^H decoupling experiments. Poor correlation was observed between some of the ^13^C chemical shifts in the model compounds and those of the analogous carbons in actinomycin D. Ten of our ^13^C assignments for actinomycin D differ from those published by Hollstein, Breitmaier and Jung.
