Major advances m NMR have been made by using a second rf transmitter to irra diate the sample at some point during the sequence There are several such techniques of which we 11 describe just one called distortionless enhancement of polarization transfer, abbreviated as DEPT...

DEPT (Section 13.18) Abbreviation for distortionless enhancement of polarization transfer. DEPT is an NMR technique that reveals the number of hydrogens directly attached to a carbon responsible for a particular signal. 

Techniques developed in recent years make it possible to obtain large amounts of information from l3C NMR spectra. For example, DEPT-NMR, for distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer, allows us to determine the number of hydrogens attached to each carbon in a molecule. 

Population transfer experiments may be selective or nonselective. Selective population transfer experiments have found only limited use for signal multiplicity assignments (SSrensen et al, 1974) or for determining signs of coupling constants (Chalmers et al., 1974 Pachler and Wessels, 1973), since this is better done by employing distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) or Correlated Spectroscopy (COSY) experiments. However, nonselective population transfer experiments, such as INEPT or DEPT (presented later) have found wide application. 

The most widely used method for determining multiplicities of carbon atoms is DEPT (Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer). This has generally replaced the classical method of recording off-resonance C spectra with reduced CH couplings from which the multiplicity could be read directly. 

DEPT (distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer) A onedimensional C-NMR experiment commonly used for spectral editing that allows us to distinguish between CH, CH2, CH, and quaternary carbons. Detectable magnetization The magnetization processing in the x y -plane induces a signal in the receiver coil that is detected. Only single-quantum coherence is directly detectable. 

Multidimensional spectraas well as techniques including DEPT (distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer), COSY (correlated spectroscopy), and ROESY (rotating-frame overhauser enhancement spectroscopy) have been increasingly used. 

One-dimensional111 and 13C NMR experiments usually provide sufficient information for the assignment and identification of additives. Multidimensional NMR techniques and other multipulse techniques (e.g. distortionless enhancement of polarisation transfer, DEPT) can be used, mainly to analyse complicated structures [186]. 

You may be told that your NMR laboratory does not routinely use APT spectra but provides DEPT spectra (Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer) instead. This is no problem, as DEPT spectra also provide you with the information you need just go back and read what we have said about the relative merits of APT and DEPT. 

The first of these tools is the distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) pulse sequence. There are a number of versions of this experiment which can be very useful for distinguishing the different types of carbons within a molecule. Of these, we have found the DEPT 135 sequence to be the most useful. In this experiment, the quaternary carbons are edited out of the spectrum altogether. 

DEPT Distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer. A useful one-dimensional technique which differentiates methyl and methine carbons from methylene and quaternary carbons. 

The most useful 1-D pulse sequence applied to 13C nuclei is known as distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT). A decoupled... 

Of the multitude of ID 13C NMR experiments that can be performed, the two most common experiments are a simple broadband proton-decoupled 13C reference spectrum, and a distortionless enhancement polarization transfer (DEPT) sequence of experiments [29]. The latter, through addition and subtraction of data subsets, allows the presentation of the data as a series of edited experiments containing only methine, methylene and methyl resonances as separate subspectra. Quaternary carbons are excluded in the DEPT experiment and can only be observed in the 13C reference spectrum or by using another editing sequence such as APT [30]. The individual DEPT subspectra for CH, CH2 and CH3 resonances of santonin (4) are presented in Fig. 10.9. 

The 13C NMR spectrum of 64, an amide of 63, showed sixty-two carbon signals of which partial assignments, shown in Table 16, were made based upon distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer(DEPT), H-13C correlation experiments and literature data describing 13C NMR analysis of polyene macrolides.

The carbon and DEPT (distortionless enhanced polarization transfer) spectra are shown in Figure 10. The HETCOR (heteronuclear two-dimensional proton-carbon correlation) spectrum is shown in Figure 11. The carbon assignments are listed in Table 5. Long-range HETCOR experiments were used to make the assignments for the thiophene carbons. 

Figure 13.6 is the proton-decoupled carbon-13 NMR distortionless enhancement of polarization transfer (DEPT) spectra of poly(methyl-l-pentene) [29]. This experiment, after data manipulation, separates the methine, methylene, and... 

The imaging of conversion within the fixed bed was achieved by using a distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) spectroscopy pulse sequence integrated into an imaging sequence, as shown in Fig. 44. In theory, a signal enhancement of up to a factor of 4 (/hZ/c 7i is the gyromagnetic ratio of nucleus i) can be achieved with DEPT. In this dual resonance experiment, initial excitation is on the H channel. Consequently, the repetition time for the DEPT experiment is constrained by Tih (< T lc) where Tn is the Ty relaxation time of...
