Fully Resolved NMR Correlation Spectroscopy

Abstract

Abstract A new correlation experiment cited as “push‐G‐SERF” is reported. In the resulting phased 2D spectrum, the chemical shift information is selected along the direct dimension, whereas scalar couplings involving a selected proton nucleus are edited in the indirect domain. The robustness of this pulse sequence is demonstrated on compounds with increasing structural and spectral complexity, using state‐of‐the‐art spectrometers. It allows for full resolution of both dimensions of the spectrum, yielding a straightforward assignment and measurement of the coupling network around a given proton in the molecule. This experiment is intended for chemists who want to address efficiently the structural analysis of molecules with an overcrowded spectrum.
