NMR spectroscopy, in structure

The value of nmr spectroscopy in structure determination lies in the fact that chemically different nuclei absorb at different field strengths. In later sections we will be concerned with correlating the chemical shifts with structural features. However, before proceeding further it is extremely important that you be able to identify the number and kind of nonequivalent protons in a given structure, and therefore the number of chemical shifts to expect. This number is not always self-evident, especially when subtle factors of stereochemistry...

In the following we will dwell upon the most essential results achieved by the use of NMR spectroscopy in structural and analytical studies of azole nitro derivatives. 

Abstract New applications of ID and 2D solid state (SS) NMR spectroscopy in structural studies of inclusion complexes (ICs) formed by organic host lattices (cyclodextrins, calixarenes, cyclophosphazenes, and fullerenes) are described. Each section of the review gives short characteristics of host molecules and recent applications of SS NMR. Less common systems, which are interesting as models for SS NMR studies, (bis[6-0,6-0 -(l,2 3,4-diiso-propylidene-a-D-galactopyranosyl) thiophosphoryl] disulfide (DGTD) and 1,2-dichloro-ethane/tris(5-acetyl-3-thienyl) methane (TATM)), are also discussed.

FinaTTy, it is wortTiy of note that several workers have used two-dimensional nmr-spectroscopy in structural studies. Plotting the C-resonances against the H-resonances reveals the connectivities of carbons and their attached hydrogens (see, for example, M. G. Reinecke et al.,...

An extensive review on NMR spectroscopy of RNA in which also homo- and heteronuclear couplings are discussed has been written by Schwalbe and co-workers. A review on the role of NMR spectroscopy in structure-aided drug design, in which a special attention has been paid to dipolar couplings, has been published by Homans. ...

We emphasize that spectroscopic analysis also requires that you carefully interpret the data. Although you may solve some problems quickly and uniquely by modern spectroscopy, you may find that others require the intelligent application of both the modern methods and the classic methods. The remainder of this section illustrates the use of IR and NMR spectroscopy in structure determination.
