## Abstract NMR and molecular modelling were used to determine the stereochemistry of two pairs of pharmaceutical compounds. In both cases, an unexpected conformation complicated the analysis of one isomer, but the insight provided by molecular modelling allowed the NMR data to be interpreted and t

Abstract
^1^H and ^13^C NMR assignments for 1a–4a and 1b–4b were obtained using HSQC, HMBC and NOESY techniques. Differences and ambiguities from literature assignments are reconciled. For the pyrrolidine C‐ring, the combined use of NMR spectroscopy and molecular mechanics calculations revealed that this ring exists in a dynamic conformational equilibrium between twist (^2^T~1~) and envelope‐twist (^1^E–^1^T~2~) conformations. In chloroform‐d~1~, the ^1^H NMR coupling constants indicate that the pyrrolidine ring is biased in favor of the envelope‐twist conformation. Steric requirements of the N‐prenyl group enhanced the envelope‐twist (^1^E–^1^T~2~) conformation populations. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract The conformational state of the [3.3.3]propellane framework for 14‐hydroxymodhephene was determined by extensive application of one‐ and two‐dimensional ^1^H and ^13^C NMR spectroscopy combined with x‐ray diffraction studies of a synthesized derivative, spectral simulation and molecular
Two macrocyclic polyether isomers were obtained by radical cyclization of (E)-8-iodo-3,6-dioxaoctyl-3ethoxycarbonylpropenoate and separated by liquid-solid chromatography over silica gel. They were characterized, for the Ðrst time, by two-dimensional NMR ; notably, the HMBC experiment gave access to
