22 Solvent Suppression The presence of an intense solvent resonance necessitates an impractical high dynamic range. 110 M vs <1mM (down to 5-10 um) To overcome this problem several methods are currently applied: 1) Presaturation 2) bserving the FID when the water passes a null condition after a 180 degree pulse. 3) Suppression of broad lined based on their T 2 behavior. 4) Selectively excitation, with and without gradients 5a) Use of GRASP to select specific coherences thereby excluding the intense solvent signal. In this case the solvent signal never reaches the ADC. This allows the observation of resonances that are buried under the solvent peak. 5b) Use of GRASP to selectively dephase the solvent resonance (WATERGATE) 5c) Excitation sculpting

(T variation) Labile protons not visible (some GC pairs may be) M y pulse to dephase the water Bsignal. z M =0 Selective rf pulse on solvent resonance followed by a gradient This could be followed by a mild presaturation field. The selective rf pulse (1-2ms, depending on width to be zeroed) is usually of the gauss type. The selective rf pulse z-gradient constructs could be repeated (WET).

31 Sugar puckering The five membered furanose ring is not planar. It can be puckered in an envelope form (E) with 4 atoms in a plane or it can be in a twist form. The geometry is defined by two parameters: the pseudorotation phase angle (P) and the pucker amplitude ( ). In general: RA (A type double helix) C3' endo.

37 Sugar puckering Usually (DA) one observes equilibrium of the S and forms sugar repuckering. Unless one form greatly dominates the local analysis requires quite a few parameters: P, PS,, S, fs Several methods for analysis exist, graphical and the more rigorous simulation. In practice the desired outcome determines the effort to be made. Sums of the coupling constants are often easier to obtain. f S = (Σ 1 9.8)/5.9 See also our pure examples: f S =0 and ~1 respectively Σ 1 = J J 1 2 Σ 2 = J J J 2 2 Σ 2 = J J J 2 2 Σ 3 = J J J 3 4 If fs < 50% J 1 2 < J 1 2 If fs ca 0% J 1 2 very small If fs > 70% J 1 2 > J 1 2
