Abstract

For spin systems with N I and N S interacting nuclei of magnetogyric ratio γI and γS respectively, it is possible to obtain multiple quantum spectra characterized by changes in the magnetic numbers mX by N I, (N I−1)…, 0 with X = I, S. The use of such heteronuclear MQ spectra as an aid in the automatic analysis of NMR spectra of both rigid and flexible molecules dissolved in liquid crystalline phases, is discussed. It has been found that when I = 1H and S = 19F, the decoupling efficiency of the standard multipulse sequences, developed and optimized for heteronuclear decoupling in isotropic liquids, depends on the spin system and also on the overall orientation of the molecule when orienting mesophases are involved. These facts impose limitations on the applicability of a procedure which, when the decoupled heteronuclear MQ spectrum is obtained, significantly reduces the computing requirements of the automated spectral analysis.
