Applications of nuclear magnetic resonance

Very little in the way of advances has occurred since 1971 in the applications of ultraviolet or infrared spectroscopy to the analysis of fluonnated organic compounds Therefore, only gas-liquid chromatography, liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry, and electron scattering for chemical analysis (ESCA) are discussed The application of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to the analysis of fluonnated organic compounds is the subject of another section of this chapter...

Other methods of identification include the customary preparation of derivatives, comparisons with authentic substances whenever possible, and periodate oxidation. Lately, the application of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has provided an elegant approach to the elucidation of structures and stereochemistry of various deoxy sugars (18). Microcell techniques can provide a spectrum on 5-6 mg. of sample. The practicing chemist is frequently confronted with the problem of having on hand a few milligrams of a product whose structure is unknown. It is especially in such instances that a full appreciation of the functions of mass spectrometry can be developed.

One of the most promising applications of nuclear magnetic resonance to vitamin Bj.2-chemistry is the use of carbon-13 NMR (145). The use of 13C fourier transform NMR has greatly increased the applicability of 13C NMR in that it permits one to obtain high quality spectra with natural abundance 13C.

Five years ago a brief review focused on the applications of nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr) as a method for determining charge density in carbonium ions and pointed out some of the precautions required (Fraenkel and Famum, 1968). Since then, proton nmr (pnmr), which was emphasized in that review, has continued to attract primary attention as a probe into the structure and charge density of organic cations and anions (Olah and Schleyer, 1968,1970, 1972, 1973 Oth ef al., 1972 Takahashi et a/., 1973 van...

The application of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to polymer systems has contributed to significant advances in understanding of their structure and dynamical properties at the molecular level. From the analytical point of view, NMR spectroscopy is particularly suitable for a determination of the polymer structure by direct observation of the protons and carbons in different structural moieties. However, until the mid-1970s the application of this technique was limited to polymer solutions and to some elastomers in the solid state with a relatively high degree of the molecular mobility which allows the observation of the motionally narrowed absorption signals. 

Since the publication of the first application of nuclear magnetic resonance to carbohydrates,848 it has become almost standard practice, in discussing many carbohydrate topics, to include nuclear magnetic resonance data. The subject has been reviewed.348... 

The mechanism for the bond cleavages indicated in figure 10.1b was clarified by Ronald Breslow. In one of the earliest applications of nuclear magnetic resonance to biochemical mechanisms, he demonstrated that the proton bonded to C-2 in the thiazolium ring is readily exchangeable with the protons of H20 and deuterons of D20 in a base-catalyzed reaction... 

The paramagnetic properties of Co(II) have been utilized in some biochemical applications of nuclear magnetic resonance. Cobalt(II)-induced contact shifts were observed in lysozyme (26). A preferential binding of Co2+ to a single site presumably involving two carboxyl groups was deduced. This technique might become very informative in studies of metal ion-dependent enzyme systems.

Before describing the application of Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to potentized homeopathic drugs we would first discuss the basic principles of NMR spectroscopy. This spectroscopy is a powerful tool providing structural information about molecules. Like UV-visible and infra red spectrometry, NMR spectrometry is also a form of absorption spectrometry. Nuclei of some isotopes possess a mechanical spin and the total angular momentum depends on the nuclear spin, or spin number 1. The numerical value of I is related to the mass number and the atomic number and may be 0, Vi, 1 etc. The medium of homeopathic...
