Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (proton NMR, hydrogen-1 NMR, or 1 H NMR) is the application of nuclear magnetic resonance in NMR spectroscopy with respect to hydrogen-1 nuclei within the molecules of a substance, in order to determine the structure of its molecules. [1]
The 1 H nucleus has provided the sole diagnostic signal for clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). 2 H, a spin-1 nucleus, is commonly utilized to provide a signal-free medium in the form of deuterated solvents for proton NMR, to avoid signal interference from hydrogen-containing solvents in measurement of 1 H NMR of solutes.
A 900 MHz NMR instrument with a 21.1 T magnet at HWB-NMR, Birmingham, UK Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, most commonly known as NMR spectroscopy or magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), is a spectroscopic technique based on re-orientation of atomic nuclei with non-zero nuclear spins in an external magnetic field.
19 F NMR is also useful if nonnatural nucleotides such as 2'-fluoro-2'-deoxyadenosine are incorporated into the nucleic acid strand, as natural nucleic acids do not contain any fluorine atoms. [2] [4] 1 H and 31 P have near 100% natural abundance, while 13 C and 15 N have low natural abundances. For these latter two nuclei, there is the ...
A classic example is the 1 H-NMR spectrum of 1,1-difluoroethylene. [5] The single 1 H-NMR signal is made complex by the 2 J H-H and two different 3 J H-F splittings. The 19 F-NMR spectrum will look identical. The other two difluoroethylene isomers give similarly complex spectra. [6]
The spectrum that appears along both the horizontal and vertical axes is a regular one dimensional 1 H NMR spectrum. The bulk of the peaks appear along the diagonal, while cross-peaks appear symmetrically above and below the diagonal. COSY-90 is the most common COSY experiment. In COSY-90, the p1 pulse tilts the nuclear spin by 90°.
Paramagnetism diminishes the resolution of an NMR spectrum to the extent that coupling is rarely resolved. Nonetheless spectra of paramagnetic compounds provide insight into the bonding and structure of the sample. For example, the broadening of signals is compensated in part by the wide chemical shift range (often 200 ppm in 1 H NMR).
With a gyromagnetic ratio 40.5% of that for 1 H, 31 P-NMR signals are observed near 202 MHz on an 11.7-Tesla magnet (used for 500 MHz 1 H-NMR measurements). Chemical shifts are typically referenced to 85% phosphoric acid, which is assigned the chemical shift of 0, and appear at positive values (downfield of the standard). [2]
