title: Solution conformation of virginiamycin S. II. The conformation of allohydroxy- and deoxyvirginiamycin S.
abstract: The experimental results of 1H- and 13C-NMR studies of allohydroxy-, and of deoxyvirginiamycin S strongly confirm the conformation that was proposed earlier for the parent virginiamycin S (Anteunis, Callens and Tavernier (1975) Eur. J. Biochem. 58, 259--268). The changing nature of dipole-induced dipole interaction is responsible for the specific gradually increasing libration of the N-MePhe side chain along the series virginiamycin S, allohydroxy-, deoxyvirginiamycin S. Previous methods for the estimation of rotameric populations around the alpha, beta bonds are critically evaluated and compared to the present results obtained from interpretation of geminal 2J (beta) coupling constants.
