Abstract
Both solitary and tandem applications of residual chemical shift anisotropy (RCSA) and residual dipolar coupling (RDC) show great potential for the structural and configurational determination of organic molecules. A critical component of both RDC and RCSA methodologies is the alignment medium, whose availability is limited, especially for RCSA measurement. Moreover, reported RDC and RCSA acquisitions mainly rely on two experiments conducted under two different conditions, which are relatively time-consuming and easily cause experimental errors. Herein, a biphasic supramolecular lyotropic liquid crystalline (LLC) system was developed through the self-assembly of C21H43-CONH-V4K3-CONH2, which could act as an alignment medium for not only RDC but also RCSA extraction in DMSO-d6. Notably, the RCSA extraction was easily achieved via one-shot measurement from a single one-dimensional 13C NMR experiment, with no need for special instruments, devices, and correction. Relying on the biphasic LLC medium, meanwhile, RDC data were simply extracted from a single F1-coupled HSQC experiment, different from the standard protocol that requires two spectral acquisitions corresponding to the isotropic and anisotropic conditions. Collectively, the biphasic LLC medium is applicable for tandem RCSA and RDC measurements in one single sample, advancing the stereochemical elucidation of molecules of interest.

Abstract
The development of chiral alignment media for measuring anisotropic NMR parameters provides an opportunity to determine the absolute configuration of chiral molecules without the need for derivatization. However, chiral alignment media with a high and robust enantiodiscriminating property for a wide range of chiral molecules are still scarce. In this study, we synthesized cholesterol-end-functionalized helical polyisocyanides from a chiral monomer using a cholesterol-based alkyne-Pd(II) initiator. These stereoregular polyisocyanides form stable and weak anisotropic lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) in dichloromethane systems, exhibiting highly optical activities in both single left- and right-handed helices. The preparation process of the media was straightforward, and the aligning property of the LLCs could be controlled by adjusting the concentration and temperature. Using the chiral polyisocyanides, we extracted the residual dipolar coupling for an enantiomeric pair of isopinocampheol (IPC), as well as a number of pharmaceutical molecules, demonstrating excellent enantiodiscriminating properties for a broad range of chiral compounds.

Abstract
Anisotropic NMR spectroscopy, revealing residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) and residual chemical shift anisotropies (RCSAs) has emerged as a powerful tool to determine the configurations of synthetic and complex natural compounds. The deduction of the absolute in addition to the relative configuration is one of the primary goals in the field. Therefore, the investigation of the enantiodiscriminating capabilities of chiral alignment media becomes essential. While RDCs and RCSAs are now used for the determination of the relative configuration routinely, RCSAs have not been measured in chiral alignment media such as chiral liquid crystals. Herein, we present this application by measuring RCSAs for chiral analytes such as indanol and isopinocampheol in the lyotropic liquid crystalline phase of an L-valine derived helically chiral polyacetylenes. We have also demonstrated that a single 1D 13 C-{1 H} NMR spectrum suffices to get the RCSAs circumventing the necessity to acquire two spectra at two alignment conditions.

Abstract
The measurement of anisotropic residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) parameters for the structure elucidation of organic molecules relies on suitable alignment media. Employment of self-assembled liquid crystalline systems to create anisotropic alignment can be an effective way to realize aligned samples and acquire RDCs. This Mini-review highlights the recent advances on amino acid-based helical polymers and supramolecular oligomers forming rigid, rod-like structures that aggregate into ordered liquid crystalline phases, including amino acid-based helical polyisocyanides, polyacetylenes, polypeptides, and oligopeptides assembled alignment media. The methodology for the determination of anisotropic liquid crystals was briefly discussed, and a summary of recent research progress in the enantiodifferentiation of helical polymers aligned media was followed. In addition, the self-assembled mechanism of oligopeptides and their RDCs structural analysis were also described. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
Floating chirality restrained distance geometry (fc-rDG) calculations are used to directly evolve structures from NMR data such as NOE-derived intramolecular distances or anisotropic residual dipolar couplings (RDCs). In contrast to evaluating pre-calculated structures against NMR restraints, multiple configurations (diastereomers) and conformations are generated automatically within the experimental limits. In this report, we show that the "unphysical" rDG pseudo energies defined from NMR violations bear statistical significance, which allows assigning probabilities to configurational assignments made that are fully compatible with the method of Bayesian inference. These "diastereomeric differentiabilities" then even become almost independent of the actual values of the force constants used to model the restraints originating from NOE or RDC data.
