Abstract:

Variants of the HSQC and HMBC experiments are described. They allow the restriction of the heteronuclear chemical shift domain without causing spectral folding. Selectivity is introduced in the HSQC experiment by means of excitation sculpting. The selective element of the pulse sequence is a double pulsed field gradient spin echo. It may be used either split by the t₁ evolution period, or not. The selectivity profile depends on the scheme used as well as on the number of protons attached to the heteronucleus. The selective HMBC experiment requires only a single echo sequence as no strict control of the signal phase is required. A complex glycoconjugate is used as a test compound for the new pulse sequences. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.
