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).

Origin of Chemical Shifts

It is common to mention the frequency of an NMR instrument instead of its field. When someone says: I have in my laboratory a 100 MHz instrument, it means that a spectrometer where the protons precess with a frequency of 100 MHz (Lamour frequency) is available in the lab…

How does the lock work?

Magnets used to manufacture low-field and high-field NMR spectrometers are not perfect and the magnetic field that they generate is prone to drift for a variety of reasons. However, during an NMR experiment it is important to keep the magnetic field as stable as possible to prevent the signals from drifting. This is taken care of by the lock system.
