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).

In this blog, we highlight the importance choosing the correct NMR solvent and checking the final volume in the NMR tube.

Tautomers are constitutional isomers that interconvert into each other by an exchange reaction, most commonly a proton transfer. Such two isomers can for example be a ketone and an enol. Read More.

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

In this blog post, I will talk about how to select a suitable calibrant as well as the difference between using an internal and external calibrant. When conducting qNMR experiments, one of the first things that needs to be considered is how the calibrant is employed to quantitate your sample. Read more.

Symmetry is beauty. There are countless examples in nature, just think about honeycombs, flowers, starfish or….maleic acid! You probably can guess which of these examples will be the star in this blog post - no, sorry, it is not the starfish…

Over the last few years, more and more analytical and industrial laboratories have started employing quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) spectroscopy as a tool for content assignment (due to its superb structural elucidation abilities) and quantification of purity in a sample.

NMR users can deal with spectrum evaluation in the daily work, but how is the spectrum information stored in the time domain (FID)? Read more.

Fluorine-19 is one of the most popular nuclides in NMR, along with 1H, 13C and 31P. It has a relatively large chemical shift window (-300 to 400 ppm), which minimizes signal overlap even at low fields, is 100% naturally abundant, and its sensitivity is nearly as high as proton. Read more.
