β¦ Synopsis
A selective one-dimensional HSQC experiment was used to obtain heteronuclear long-range coupling constants for native and chemically modiΓed cyclodextrins (3,6-anhydro-b-cyclodextrin) and a non-covalent complex of a-cyclodextrin with p-nitrophenol. Selective excitation was performed on C-4 in the a-glucose units using DANTE hard pulse trains. The measured heteronuclear long-range coupling constants have similar values for all natural cyclodextrins. The high value of these coupling constants indicates that the low dihedral angle between H-1 and C-4 found in the solid state is retained in solution. Chemical modiΓcation or complex formation, however, decreases the coupling constant by increasing the dihedral angle between these nuclei.

In this work we present a new pulse sequence for the measurement of long-range heteronuclear coupling constants in which the optimization of coherence selection by pulsed field gradients offers a net increase in sensitivity. This type of experiments is extremely valuable for conformational studies o
