2-l3C] Indole was synthesized in 39% yield by a three-step procedure starting with K13CN. The labeled indole was converted to D,L[2'-13d tryptophan in three subsequent steps and the overall yield from K13CN was 13.5%. Proton and 13C-NMR, and GC/mass spectral analyses confirmed the position and exten

Abstract
A Strecker synthesis of isobutyraldehyde, K^13^CN and ammonia produced D,L‐[1‐^13^C] valine in 83% yield. This racemic mixtue was then converted to the L‐form via a D‐amino acid oxidase ‐ branched amino acid aminotransferase system in an overall yield of 75% based on K^13^CN. Given the generality of the Strecker synthesis as well as the broad substrate specificity of the oxidase and aminotransferase enzymes, it is anticipated that this procedure will be comparably efficient for most standard aliphatic and aromatic amino acids.

## Abstract The method for the synthesis of DL‐(1‐^14^C)valine (reaction of ethyl N‐(1‐phthalimido)‐isobutyl‐1‐carbamate with K^14^CN in ethyl alcohol, followed by acidic hydrolysis of the labelled nitrile) reported by Egyed et al. (Acta Chim. Hung. 38: 123, 1963) was studied. The yield of valine c
Polymers 1 of the title monomer, prepared using well-defined molybdenum carbene complexes as catalysts, have been hydrogenated and the structures of the resultant polymers 2 examined by I3C NMR spectroscopy. The hydrogenated polymer made from the all-cis isotactic polymer of (+)-monomer showed a sin
This paper presents the synthesis of 1-13 C-and 4-13 C-plastoquinone-9 and their characterization with NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The synthetic scheme has been further adapted to introduce 13 C-labeled plastoquinones on all individual and on each combination of positions in the qui-
