Using NMR to observe the restricted rotation in amide bonds

NMR is a great tool for the analysis of molecular properties such as the amide bond, which has a restricted rotation around the C–N bond. In Biochemistry, the amide bond is referred to as the peptide bond. This bond is formed by the union of a carboxyl group of one amino acid with the amino group of another amino acid. Read more.

What to expect: Chemical Shifts & Coupling Constants in Low-field NMR Spectroscopy

One of the questions that we always get at tradeshows and conferences is how our instrument compares to high-field data. There are significant inherent differences between low-field and high-field instruments, but the most important from a chemistry point of view are sensitivity (S/N) and resonance dispersion (signal separation).

Unsymmetric Carbon Satellites in Fluorine-19 NMR

In the 19F NMR spectrum of DCBTF, we can observe the singlet resonance of the trifluoromethyl fragment at δ = −63.07 ppm. While it might not jump into your eye at first glance, please note that the carbon satellites are not centered at the "main signal", which is what we are used to from 1H NMR spectra. Read more
