Summary:1H NMR data of a series of thyroid hormone analogues, e.g., thyroxine (T4), 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3), 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (rT3), 3,3'-diiodothyronine (3,3'-T2), 3,5-diiodothyronine (3,5-T2), 3',5'-diiodothyronine (3',5'-T2), 3-monoidothyronine (3-T1), 3'-monoiodothyronine (3'-T1), and thyronine (TO) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) have been obtained on a 300 MHz spectrometer. The chemical shift and coupling constant are determined and tabulated for each aromatic proton. The inner tyrosyl ring protons in T4, T3, and 3,5-T2 have downfield chemical shifts with respect to those of the outer phenolic ring protons. Four-bond cross-ring coupling has been observed in all the monoiodinated rings. However, this long-range coupling does not exist in T4, diiodinated on both rings, and T0, containing no iodines on the rings. There is no evidence that at 30 degrees C these iodothyronines have any motional constraint in DMSO solution. In addition to identification of the hormones, the potential use of some characteristic peaks as probes in binding studies is discussed.
