SOLUTIONS

  • What is needed is a robust easy to use ROYALPROBE HFX and NMR console that can do every routine or sophisticated HFX experiment well!
  • Including all HFX experiments, 1H{19F}, 19F{1H}, 13C{1H,19F} & X{1H,19F}

By utilizing new published and patented probe technologies the powerful general-purpose ROYALPROBE now provides coupled with ECZ consoles unparalleled flexibility as the new JEOL ROYALPROBE HFX.

How does the Technology Work?

  • The ROYALPROBE HFX uses for the first time in any commercial NMR probe magnetic coupling as an efficient purely 'on' or 'off' switch for the associated coil to be dual-tuned to 1H and 19F or single tuned to each. These improvements are related to the use of magnetic coupling in NMR circuits to improve the performance and function of NMR probes. [ref 6 - 8].
  • Magnetic tuning allows the probe to retain the exact same highest performance for either 1H or 19F in single tune mode. In dual tune mode the switch can be tuned to easily balance the relative efficiencies of 19F and 1H. Because of the huge 19F spectral window.
  • JEOL ECZ NMR Spectrometer
  • ECZS routine NMR spectrometers can generate simultaneous 1H and 19F frequencies with no additional hardware.
  • ECZR research NMR spectrometers with an optional 3rd channel can collect 1H and 19F data over wide 19F frequency ranges in all dimensions.
  • JEOL ROYALPROBE HFX
  • Spec's ROYALPROBE = Spec's ROYALPROBE HFX
  • No Loss in RF or S/N performance relative to the standard ROYALPROBE for 1H, 19F, 13C, or X
  • Includes Auto-Tune compatibility to allow easy switching between modes.

OUT OF THE BOX HFX EXPERIMENTS

Most commonly needed 1D and 2D pulse programs are provided for easy use in a fully automated environment. Because of the often dramatic requirement for very wide bandwidths associated with 19F NMR fully optimized combinations of adiabatic decoupling and 180 refocusing/inversion technologies are fully utilized in all dimensions. The Chemist can focus on Chemistry while the console worries about the complex details. Figures 5 - 8 show typical examples and the improvements resulting from HFX techniques for a couple of example molecules.

Full 13C spectrum for the fluoro-ether example showing all possible combinations of 1H and 19F decoupling. Results are shown with identical scaling to accentuate the dramatic improvement to 13C spectra of fluorine containing molecules by dual {1H,19F}.

It is important to remember that the low band channel of the ROYALPROBE HFX retains full broadband capabilities. Figure 9 first illustrates another example of 13C observe with {1H,19F} while figure 10 shows the power of {1H,19F } with a 31P spectrum.

Effects of all combinations of 1H and 19F decoupling for a 31P resonance. In this figure the results for either no decoupling of single nucleus decoupling have the vertical scaling greatly increased relative to the {1H,19F } example.

The simplification of spectral information in multi-dimensional experiments can be just as significant as was just shown for simple decoupling with 1D observe. This is because the J-couplings occur in all dimensions! Often it is desirable to obtain 2D information illustrating 1H/19F connectivity both though bonds (HFCOSY/HFHETCOR) or through space as with the HFHOESY example shown in figure 11.

Having the ability to acquire 1H/13C or 19F/13C, or 1H 19F/X 2D data with decoupling as either 1H or 19F is particularly powerful. The following figure 12 illustrate the effects for decoupling 19F in both the F1 and F2 dimensions in gHMBCAD again using Fluticasone as a simple example molecule. In general 19F can introduce coupling in all dimensions in every heteronuclear 2D NMR experiment reducing sensitivity and increasing complexity.

SUMMARY

It is hoped that this application note provides an informative introduction to the science which is easily done using the ROYALPROBE HFX and a JEOL ECZ series NMR Spectrometer.
