Abstract

To investigate the origins of solid-state NMR shift differences in polymorphs, carbon NMR chemical shift tensors are measured for two forms of solid 10-deacetyl baccatin III: a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvate and an unsolvated form. A comparison of ab initio computed tensors that includes and omits the DMSO molecules demonstrates that lattice interactions cannot fully account for the shift differences in the two forms. Instead, conformational differences in the cyclohexenyl, benzoyl, and acetyl moieties are postulated to create the differences observed. X-ray analysis of six baccatin III analogues supports the suggested changes in the cyclohexenyl and benzoyl systems. The close statistical match of the (13)C chemical shifts of both polymorphic forms with those calculated using the X-ray geometry of 10-deacetyl baccatin III supports the contention that the B, C, and D rings are fairly rigid. Therefore, the observed tensor differences appear to arise primarily from conformational variations in ring substituents and the cyclohexenyl ring.
