title: 15N NMR studies of the binding of C15N- with gold(I) drugs.
abstract: 15N NMR studies of the interaction of 15N cyanide ion with gold(I)-thiomalate (Autm) and gold(I)-thioglucose (Autg) have been carried out at pH* 7.40. The chemical shifts of the two 15N ions containing species Au(C15N)2- and RS-Au-C15N- (where RS- = tm- or tg-) were identified at 265.94 and 260.30 ppm, respectively. From the broadened 15N NMR signals, approximate life times of the RS-Au-CN- species were calculated.
