Abstract

The ^15^N‐NMR spectra of vitamin B~12~ analogues obtained in fully ^15^N‐labelled form have been measured by direct and inverse (^15^N, ^1^H) correlated spectroscopy. All resonances, except those of the NH~2~ groups, have been assigned to individual N‐atoms. The influences on δ (N) are analyzed and discussed which are caused by changing the α‐face ligand from CN to H~2~O or CH~3~ and by switching the β‐face ligand from the base‐on to the base‐off state. An implication of the correct resonance assignment on biosynthetic pathways is demonstrated.
