Carbon‐13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of anti‐inflammatory drugs: Phenylbutazone, oxyphenbutazone and indomethacin

Abstract
The 13C nmr chemical shifts of phenylbutazone, oxyphenbutazone, indomethacin and indole‐3‐acetic acid are reported. The assignments of various carbon resonances are made on the basis of the substitution effects on benzene shifts, multiplicities generated in SFORD spectra, nuclear overhauser enhancement for protonated carbons, and the comparison with analogous compounds.
