Fluorine-19 nuclear magnetic resonance constants

The section on Spectroscopy has been retained but with some revisions and expansion. The section includes ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence, infrared and Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray spectrometry. Detection limits are listed for the elements when using flame emission, flame atomic absorption, electrothermal atomic absorption, argon induction coupled plasma, and flame atomic fluorescence. Nuclear magnetic resonance embraces tables for the nuclear properties of the elements, proton chemical shifts and coupling constants, and similar material for carbon-13, boron-11, nitrogen-15, fluorine-19, silicon-19, and phosphoms-31. 

If one wishes to obtain a fluorine NMR spectrum, one must of course first have access to a spectrometer with a probe that will allow observation of fluorine nuclei. Fortunately, most modern high field NMR spectrometers that are available in industrial and academic research laboratories today have this capability. Probably the most common NMR spectrometers in use today for taking routine NMR spectra are 300 MHz instruments, which measure proton spectra at 300 MHz, carbon spectra at 75.5 MHz and fluorine spectra at 282 MHz. Before obtaining and attempting to interpret fluorine NMR spectra, it would be advisable to become familiar with some of the fundamental concepts related to fluorine chemical shifts and spin-spin coupling constants that are presented in this book. There is also a very nice introduction to fluorine NMR by W. S. and M. L. Brey in the Encyclopedia of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.1... 

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectra were obtained for S02C1F solutions at -80 °C. b The symbols, FA and FB, denote axial and equatorial fluorine atoms, respectively. c The anion parameters apply to all carbocation salts and to the Br(OTeF5)2+ salt of Sb(OTeF5)6" also see ref 73. d Predicted from pairwise additivity parameters as described in the Chemical Shifts and Coupling Constant Trends section.f See ref 84 and 85.e The l23Te satellites were not observed. 

The magnetic resonance spectrum of HF was studied some nine years earlier than the electric resonance spectrum by Baker, Nelson, Leavitt and Ramsey [93] in this case the transitions studied were magnetic dipole, corresponding to reorientation of the proton and fluorine nuclear spins. Values of the nuclear spin rotation and dipolar constants were essentially confirmed by the later electric resonance measurements. We now describe measurements of the electric resonance spectrum in the additional presence of a strong magnetic field, carried out by de Leeuw and Dymanus [89].
