Most users of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instruments tend to dissolve their samples in deuterated analogues of common solvents like chloroform, acetone, or dimethyl sulfoxide. However, there are many applications, like reaction monitoring, where using a deuterated solvent is not actually necessary.
This webinar will review why deuterated solvents are used in NMR applications in the first place, discuss how one can perform the same actions without deuterium, and show practical examples of Non-Deuterated (No-D) NMR.
Presenter: Tim Bergeron, NMR Applications Chemist
Tim joined JEOL USA, Inc. in 2013 in his current role as an NMR Applications Chemist. He is responsible for training and supporting customers using JEOL NMR spectrometers, producing papers on the newest advances in NMR technology, as well as assisting the sales and marketing groups at JEOL USA. He also attends and gives talks at conferences that focus on topics where NMR has an important role, such as structure elucidation, quantitation, and chemical education.
