19 F-detected dual-optimized inverted 1 JCC 1,n-ADEQUATE.

Abstract

Modification of the recently reported 19 F-detected 1,1-ADEQUATE experiment that incorporates dual-optimization to selectively invert a wide range of 1 JCC correlations in a 1,n-ADEQUATE experiment is reported. Parameters for the dual-optimization segment of the pulse sequence were modified to accommodate the increased size of 1 JCC homonuclear coupling constants of poly- and perfluorinated molecules relative to protonated molecules to allow broadband inversion of the 1 JCC correlations. The observation and utility of isotope shifts are reported for the first time for 1,1- and 1,n-ADEQUATE correlations.
