NMR spectra of quinidine (I), hydroquinidine (II), and their respective acetyl derivatives (III and IV) were compared. The chemical shifts of some protons in I differed from those of their counterparts in II. These values were concentration dependent in I and II; they were similar in III and IV but

Abstract
Crystal structure analysis shows 6βOβ(Ξ±βDβglucopyranosyl)βDβglucitol (isomaltitol 1) to have a bent glucitol chain linked to glucose in normal ^4^C~1~βchair form, the middle section forming a planar zigzag chain that extends into the pyranoid ring. Comparative assessment of the conformational features of 1, its Dβmannitol analogue 2, and of some (1 β 4)βlinked analogues allows β in combination with Jeffrey's alditol rules and the exoβanomeric effect principles β to predict with significant confidence the preferred conformations of glycosylalditols in general.

The conformational preferences of linear peptides containing a,a-disubstituted a-amino acids, derived from the crystal structures of 28 compounds, are reviewed. In particular, the sensitivity of peptide conformation to the geometry of these unusual amino acids is underlined. We also consider possibl
On the basis of the presence or absence of long-range spin-spin coupling constants between side-chain and ring nuclei in 2-methoxyacetophenone, some literature ambiguities about the conformationel preferences of the side-chains in this compound can be resolved. The long-range coupling between the me
