Quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) is routinely performed by the internal or external standardization. The manuscript describes a simple alternative to these common workflows by using NMR signal of another active nuclei of calibration compound. For example, for any arbitrary compound quantification by NMR can be based on the use of an indirect concentration referencing that relies on a solvent having both 1H and 2H signals. To perform high-quality quantification, the deuteration level of the utilized deuterated solvent has to be estimated.
In this contribution the new method was applied to the determination of deuteration levels in different deuterated solvents (MeOD, ACN, CDCl3, acetone, benzene, DMSO-d6). Isopropanol-d6, which contains a defined number of deuterons and protons, was used for standardization. Validation characteristics (precision, accuracy, robustness) were calculated and the results showed that the method can be used in routine practice. Uncertainty budget was also evaluated. In general, this novel approach, using standardization by 2H integral, benefits from reduced sample preparation steps and uncertainties, and can be applied in different application areas (purity determination, forensics, pharmaceutical analysis, etc.).
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometric methods for the quantitative analysis of pure heparin in crude heparin is proposed. For quantification, a two-step routine was developed using a USP heparin reference sample for calibration and benzoic acid as an internal standard. The method was successfully validated for its accuracy, reproducibility, and precision. The methodology was used to analyze 20 authentic porcine heparinoid samples having heparin content between 4.25 w/w % and 64.4 w/w %. The characterization of crude heparin products was further extended to a simultaneous analysis of these common ions: sodium, calcium, acetate and chloride. A significant, linear dependence was found between anticoagulant activity and assayed heparin content for thirteen heparinoids samples, for which reference data were available. A Diffused-ordered NMR experiment (DOSY) can be used for qualitative analysis of specific glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in heparinoid matrices and, potentially, for quantitative prediction of molecular weight of GAGs. NMR spectrometry therefore represents a unique analytical method suitable for the simultaneous quantitative control of organic and inorganic composition of crude heparin samples (especially heparin content) as well as an estimation of other physical and quality parameters (molecular weight, animal origin and activity).
Metathese von Ölsäure und Derivaten ist ein interessanter Weg für die Synthese bifunktioneller Verbindungen aus nachwachsenden Rohstoffen. Verwendet wurden Ru-Katalysatoren der zweiten Generation, welche eine hohe Toleranz gegenüber funktionellen Gruppen und Verunreinigungen aufweisen. Trotz des Einsatzes technischer Edukte waren Umsetzungen mit niedrigen Katalysatormengen (0.001 – 0.01 mol-%) möglich, mit Ausbeuten entsprechend der Literatur. Kreuzmetathesen ermöglichten variable Kettenlängen und Funktionalitäten der Monomere, die Produktgewinnung ist jedoch aufwändig. Selbstmetathese lieferte C18-bifunktionelle Verbindungen, welche einfach durch Destillation oder Kristallisation isoliert werden können. Neben der katalystischen Umsetzung wurde auch die Produktgewinnung untersucht und für ausgewählte Produkte auch im größeren Maßstab durchgeführt.
