## Abstract The ^15^N chemical shifts of thirteen NH‐pyrazoles in the solid state and of seven NH‐pyrazoles in [^2^H~8~] THF solution at 170–175 K (with frozen annular tautomerism) are reported. The solid‐state values are discussed using an additive model. The differences in chemical shifts between

✦ Synopsis
We present a novel solid-state magic angle-spinning NMR method for measuring the NH i -NH i؉1 projection angle i,i؉1 in peptides. The experiment is applicable to uniformly 15 N-labeled peptides and is demonstrated on the chemotactic tripeptide N-formyl-L-Met-L-Leu-L-Phe. The projection angle i,i؉1 is directly related to the peptide backbone torsion angles i and i . The method utilizes the T-MREV recoupling scheme to restore 15 N-1 H interactions, and proton-mediated spin diffusion to establish 15 N-15 N correlations. T-MREV has recently been shown to increase the dynamic range of the 15 N-1 H recoupling by ␥-encoding, and permits an accurate determination of the recoupled NH dipolar interaction. The results are interpreted in a quasi-analytical fashion that permits efficient extraction of the structural parameters.
