Abstract

All of the structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including the concerted application of one-dimensional H-1-H-1 total correlation spectroscopy, H-1-H-1 nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy), and C-13-C-13; DEPT-NMR and two-dimensional NMR techniques (double-quantum filtered correlated spectroscopy, rotating-frame Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy, heteronuclear single quantum coherence, and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation).
