Information Available via NMR
There are three types of easily-accessible information available in NMR
spectroscopy:
-
Chemical shift which provides information about the average effective
magnetic field (due to nuclear shielding) present at various locations
within a molecule;
-
Spin-spin coupling (coupling constants and spin multiplicities)
which derives from through-bond interactions between spin-active nuclei;
-
Signal intensity, measured as the integral of the signal, which
derives from the number of equivalent nuclei present in a given environment.
Of course, it is possible to garner additional information via other processes,
such as the nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE). |
