CHEM455 - NMR Assignment

Spectrometer instructions

Part 1: Determination of the proton 90 degree pulse:

Excel spreadsheet for Pulsewidth increment: 2 microseconds

Excel spreadsheet for Pulsewidth increment: 5 microseconds

Formula used in Excel: I = I0 * [sin (PW * pi / PW180) * exp (- PW / Pdecay)]

with:  PW = pulse width (in microseconds)
pi / PW180 = conversion factor: microseconds -> radians
Pdecay = decay of pulse power for long pulses


Part 2: T1 relaxation: Use I = I0 * (A - (2 * exp (- D2 / T1)))

Excel spreadsheet for T1 Calculation


Part 3: T2 relaxation: Use I = I0 * exp (-2 * D2 / T2)                 

Excel spreadsheet for T2 Calculation


Part 4: Nuclear Overhauser Enhancement (NOE / NOESY)
