A. Donnerstag et al., H-1-NMR AS A TOOL FOR THE STRUCTURE ELUCIDATION OF MOENOMYCIN ANTIBIOTICS, Magnetic resonance in chemistry, 34(12), 1996, pp. 1031-1035
As a consequence of aggregate formation, no H-1 NMR spectra of the amp
hiphilic antibiotic moenomycin A have been obtained previously, It was
now found that the system moenomycin A-D2O-C6D6 after sonification yi
elded highly resolved H-1 NMR spectra, probably due to the formation o
f a microemulsion. Similarly resolved spectra were obtained from moeno
mycin A in sodium dodecyl sulphate micelles.
