Techniques for studying high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectra have been considerably broadened in recent years. The most far reaching development—pulse Fourier transform (FT) methods—is discussed in detail. Applications of FT techniques to measurement of relaxation times and to enhancement of weak signals, especially from natural abundance 13C, are reviewed. Double resonance methods, particularly the nuclear Overhauser effect, and the use of lanthanide shift reagents are also covered in this “mini-review.”


Some general properties of ABCX -type spectra are discussed. It is shown that it is possible to deduce from such spectra the relative signs of all inter-nuclear coupling constants. Analyses are presented of the hydrogen (proton) spectra from the vinyl groups of vinyl fluoride and 3-methylbut-l-ene, and of the fluorine spectrum of the former molecule. It is shown that all HF coupling constants in vinyl fluoride are of the same sign as the cis and trans HH coupling constants.
