PEHSQC: A simple experiment for simultaneous and sign-sensitive measurement of ((1)J(CH)+D-CH) and ((2)J(HH)+D-HH) couplings

摘要

The angular information content of residual dipolar couplings between nuclei of fixed distance makes the accurate and sign-sensitive measurement of ((1)J(CH) + D-CH) and ((2)J(HH) + D-HH) couplings highly desirable. Experiments published so far are typically highly specialized for the effective measurement of a subset of couplings. The P.E.HSQC presented here, is an E.COSY based experiment which allows the simultaneous measurement of all heteronuclear and homonuclear couplings within CH, CH2, and CH3 groups in a single spectrum with the necessary precision and sign information. The simplicity of the approach and the absence of artefacts like phase distortions due to antiphase evolution make it ideally suited for coupling determination of organic molecules at natural abundance.
