NMR. Obtaining a 13 C NMR Spectrum. 1 H Broadband decoupling Gives singlet 13 C peaks, provided no F, P, or D present in the molecule) Continuous sequence of pulses at the 1 H frequency causes a rapid reversal of spin orientation relative to the B 0 , causing coupling to 13 C to disappear.

Obtaining a 13C NMR Spectrum • 1H Broadband decoupling • Gives singlet 13C peaks, provided no F, P, or D present in the molecule) • Continuous sequence of pulses at the 1H frequency causes a rapid reversal of spin orientation relative to the B0, causing coupling to 13C to disappear

13C Chemical Shifts • Reference is TMS, sets 0 ppm • A range of 200 ppm • Chemical shifts can be predicted • Empirical correlations • Ex. Alkanes di = -2.3 + 9.1na + 9.4nb – 2.5ng + 0.3nd + 0.1ne + Sij 2-methylbutane di = -2.3 + 9.1*1 + 9.4*2 – 2.5*1 - 1.1 = 22.0 (22.3)
Signal averaging • 13C experiment generally take longer than 1H experiments because many more FIDs need to be acquired and averaged to obtain adequate sensitivity. • NOE effect (enhancement/reduction in signal as a result of decoupling) N4 N4 13C 1H W2 1H 13C N2 N2 N3 N3 W1 13C 1H 1H 13C N1 N1
NOE effect • W2 (Enhancement) dominates in small molecules • Relevant for all decoupling experiments
Other more complex 1D Experiments • 1H NOE experiment • Inversion Recovery Experiment; Determination of T1 • J modulated Spin Echo • INEPT Experiment • DEPT Experiment
Targeted 1H Spin Decoupling • Continuous irradiation at a frequency (n2) that corresponds to a specific proton in the molecule during the 1H NMR experiment • All coupling associated with the protons corresponding to n2 disappears from the spectrum
