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 Γrst time, by two-dimensional NMR ; notably, the HMBC experiment gave access to

Abstract
^1^H NMR shifts and ^13^C spinβlattice relaxation rates were measured for various aromatic Οβacceptors (S) in solutions containing paramagnetic cobalt(II) and iron(III) porphyrins (P). The stability constants of P Β· S molecular complexes and limiting values of substrate chemical shifts in the complexes were determined from the concentration dependence of chemical shifts. The abilities of different substituents to promote complexation of aromatics with metalloporphyrins are discussed. The preferred substrate orientation in molecular complexes were derived using relative values of chemical shifts and relaxation rates induced by metalloporphyrins. Both monocyclic (benzene and pyridine derivatives) and bicyclic (naphthalene derivative) substrates tend to form βaxially symmetricβ adducts with parallel Οβplanes and the centre of the aromatic system situated in the vicinity of the porphyrin zβaxis.

Synthetic alamethicin analogs, in which all Aib residues had been replaced by Leu (L2) then proline 14 replaced by an alanine (L5), were studied in SDS micelles using circular dichroism and NMR spectroscopy. Nuclear Overhauser effects were used as constraints for molecular modelling. The structures
## Microperoxidase-11 (MP11) is an undecapeptide, obtained from enzymatic cleavage of cytochrome c, which still exhibits peroxidase activity. It retains residues 11-21 of the protein, the heme-c group and His18 as fifth ligand at the iron atom. We studied MP11 in the paramagnetic, Fe(III) low-spin
The process of complex formation and the structure of the complexes were studied for the surfactant binding of the N-alkylpyridinium chlorides (C n PyCl, n Ο 12, 16) to the sodium salt of poly(styrenesulfonate) (NaPS) and its copolymer with styrene. Both the NaPS and the amphiphilic copolymer form n
