Abstract
Extensive double irradiation experiments allowed the almost complete unraveling and extraction of the parameters in the ^1^Hβnmr spectrum of Na^+^βMonensin (1). From this it is concluded that the solution conformation is in its details highly similar to the crystal state of the Ag^+^ salt. Thus rings A and E are in a somewhat distorted chair, both rings B and D are in an envelope (with the flap at respectively Cβ10 and Cβ18) while ring C is in a ^15^~14~T(wist). An unusual high screening and consequently low rate of proton exchange was observed for some hydroxyl protons, especially in C~6~D~6~. The small couplings observed where OHβprotons are involved allow a further deeper insight in their spatial arrangement and in their participation as ligand and hydrogen bonding. Some differences with the solid state are noted here.

## Abstract The data (TABLES I and 2) extracted from the ^1^Hβnmr spectra of Xβ206 (1) and its sodium salt confirm the unique conformation reported for the solid state 1a and which is found to be identical in bulk Solution (Figure 7). The backbone of the antibiotic follows the seam of a tennis ball
## Abstract Extensive nmdr experiments in the 300 MHz ^1^Hβnmr spectra of the title compounds in different solvents allows the conformational description of these pseudocyclic ionophores. There is a striking similarity between the present results and the solid state data for the salts. The free aci
