NMR spectrometers are perhaps most commonly used to generate qualitative data – you know – determine relative integrations, elucidate a structure, or even just assess a

2,4-pentanedione (aka acetylacetone, acetylacetonato or acacH) is not only a ubiquitous ligand (AND ligand precursor!) for beautifully coloured organometallic complexes[1-3]

For an example of qNMR, I want to talk about an analytical method – standard addition.  If you’re anything like me, you HATED standard addition in undergraduate analytical chemistry.

Since the early 1960s the efficacy of NMR in quantitative measurements (qNMR) has been explored.  Although not a particularly sensitive technique, NMR (my technique of choice!)

In November 2014 Nanalysis was pleased to announce the expansion of their product line with the NMReady-60PRO.  With this we also extended our experiment library for the NMReady-60e

Sustainability has become a main focus of innovation.  Topics of green chemistry, and renewable feedstocks, are paramount in society today.  Biodiesel is one such example!  Read more.

So now that we have Case 1 (i.e., I = ½, 100% abundant) under our belts, we’re ready to tackle Case 2 (i.e., I = ½, <100% abundance)!

All my previous discussions of coupling have been focused on homonuclear coupling – you know between ‘like’ nuclei – proton-proton, of course, being the most common type.

Welcome back!  If you recall from our last blog, we followed a bench-top NMR electronics blueprint to highlight the technology that allows the generation of an excitation wave and tailors it to nutate our hydrogen nuclei in our sample.  Now, keeping with our goal of demystifying the technology of ...
