“…As far as the 13 C NMR spectra of pure thermotropic liquid crystals is concerned, the studies have been carried out to explore the best homonuclear and heteronuclear decoupling sequence and their merits and demerits have been discussed [16][17][18][19]. However, there is no such systematic study for the probe molecules aligned in the liquid crystalline media, although in a study on the mono and disubstituted fluorinated benzenes aligned in the liquid crystals a two-dimensional proton-detected local field (PDLF) experiment has been carried out [20], using the PMLG sequence to suppress the proton-proton dipolar couplings in the indirect dimension, allowing the evolution of fluorine and proton dipolar couplings.…”
