Abstract:We present a method to use long‐range CH coupling constants to derive the correct diastereoisomer from the molecular constitution of small molecules. A set of 79 2JCH and 3JCH values collected from a single HSQMBC experiment on a sample of strychnine were used in the CASE‐3D (computer‐assisted 3D structure elucidation) protocol. In addition to the most commonly used 3JCH coupling constants, the subset of 32 2JCH values alone showed an excellent degree of configuration selection. The study is mainly based on co… Show more
“…A recent report has demonstrated the utility of long-range Jcoupling constants for diastereomeric analysis. 30 Due to the computational demands of modelling such a highly flexible molecule, the models were truncated at C24 with only eight isomers considered. These isomers corresponded to isomeric permutations at the C7, C17 and C21/C23 stereocenters.…”
