Abstract

The small chemical shift dispersion and complex multiplicity pattern in proton NMR limit quantifications, for instance the determination of enantiomeric excess (ee) for an enantiomeric mixture. Herein, we present a simple proton-proton correlation experiment with band selective homonuclear (BASH) decoupling in both F1 and F2 dimensions, for the removal of scalar and residual dipolar couplings to provide collapsed singlet for each chemical site. The method has been demonstrated to separate the severely overlapped spectra of enantiomers using both chiral isotropic and anisotropic phases as well as a small biomolecule, particularly for the diastereotopic protons and also for the determination of ee.
