Differentiation of heterocyclic isomers
by solution 1H, 13C, and 15N NMR
spectroscopy is often challenging
due to similarities in their spectroscopic signatures. Here, 13C{14N} solid-state NMR spectroscopy experiments
are shown to operate as an “attached nitrogen test”,
where heterocyclic isomers are easy to distinguish based on one-dimensional
nitrogen-filtered 13C solid-state NMR. We anticipate that
these NMR experiments will facilitate the assignment of heterocyclic
isomers during synthesis and natural product discovery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
