Table 1. Comparison of εmax, τ60,S3b and R3b values (see text for definition) for methanol-d4 solutions of 1a, 6 equivalents of sodium pyruvate-1,2-[13C2] and 4 equivalents of the specified sulfoxide I–X of Fig. 3 after shaking with 3 bar p-H2 for 10 seconds in a mu metal shield.
Sulfoxide | 13C1εmax/fold a | 13C2εmax/fold a | τ 60/% | S 3b/arb. units | R 3b/% |
I | 1215 ± 40 | 910 ± 30 | 23 | 50 | 60 |
II | 1090 ± 35 | 1035 ± 30 | 6 | 85 | 90 |
III | 1090 ± 35 | 1040 ± 30 | 32 | 20 | 93 |
IV | 115 ± 5 | 105 ± 5 | 92 | 5 | N/A b |
V | 555 ± 15 | 545 ± 15 | 3 | 60 | 90 |
VI | 195 ± 5 | 180 ± 5 | 3 | 5 | 70 |
VII | 400 ± 10 | 385 ± 10 | 9 | 25 | 45 |
VIII | 1150 ± 35 | 1040 ± 30 | 60 | 70 | 95 |
IX | 0 | 0 | N/A | N/A | 0 |
X | 130 ± 5 | 115 ± 5 | 17 | N/A c | N/A c |
aThese reflect one shot measurements due to the change in signal over time. Errors are based on an average of three measurements for a sample containing II where the observed enhancement is relatively constant thereby allowing repeat measurement.
bRapid sample degradation prevented recording R3b at a similar time point to εmax.
cNo signals for a species analogous to 3b were evident.
