Abstract

13C NMR spectroscopic investigations were conducted for various amino acid derivatives and peptides. It was observed that 13C NMR chemical shifts of the carbonyl carbons are correlated with the solvent polarities, but the extent depends on the structures. The size of the functional groups and inter- and intra-molecular hydrogen bonding appear to be the major contributors for this tendency.
