Three-dimensional solution NMRspectroscopy of complex structures and mixtures

Abstract

This paper reviews the non-biological applications of three dimensional NMR (3D-NMR) spectroscopy methodologies for studying chemical structures in polymer science, dendrimer research, organometallic chemistry, organosilicon chemistry, and mixtures of small organic molecules. Four methodologies for solving chemical structure problems are described, where the appropriate method is determined by the presence or absence of a third X nucleus (in addition to ¹H and ¹³C) with suitable NMR properties.
