High-resolution proton and fluorine magnetic resonance spectra of the two-imino acids, cis-and rz-ons-4-fluoro-L-proline, have been analyzed. The vicinal coupling constants are used in conjunction with a Kar-plus-type equation to ascertain the conformational properties of the prolinering in each system. Both molecules are found to be in envelope conformations; theexistence of a single, stronglydominant conformational isomer with the fluorine atom in an axial orientation is indicated for each compound by the data. he only cyclic-imino acids which commonly appear in protein structures are L-proline (la) and 4-hydroxy-L-proline (Ib), and as a result the conforma-la, R= H b, R= OH c, R= F tional properties of these molecules are of particular interest. Previous studies of the five-memberedproline ring have largely been crystallographic determinations, 1-8 although the cis and trans isomers of 4-hydroxy-L-proline have been examined in solution by pmr spectroscopy. 9 These investigations show the general tendency of the unsubstituted and 4-monosubstituted proline ring to be puckered, with carbon C7 0.4-0.6 Á out of the plane occupied by the Q, N, Ca, and€ ß atoms. This puckered atom may be below the plane, and thereby oriented trans to the carbonyl group, as found in copper prolinedihydrate5 and (rans-hydroxy-L-proline1· 9 or may lie above the plane, cis to the car-boxyl group. Examples of this latter ring conforma-tion are afforded by L-proline1 2 3and c/s-4-hydroxy-L-proline. A number of proline-containing peptides have also been found to be puckered at C710-12 al-though in several substituted prolines andin some pep-
