Abstract
The proton-carbon correlation spectra, HMBC (heteronuclear multiple bond correlation) and HMQC (heteronuclear multiple quantum correlation), respectively, provide direct and remote connectivity information with high sensitivity. Their combination enables carbon-carbon proximity relationships to be deduced, which are formally identical to those produced by a fictitious INADEQUATE-2D experiment, where correlations would be established exclusively between atoms linked by one or two bonds. The CASA program uses these relationships, as well as DEPT spectra and elementary chemical-shift considerations to assign the 13C spectrum of a compound if its structure is known or assumed. If the structure conflicts with the experimental data, no assignment is produced. The CASA program serves as an aid to either spectral assignment or structural elucidation.
