Boosting the resolution of multidimensional NMR spectra by complete removal of proton spin multiplicities.

ABSTRACT: Over decades multidimensional NMR spectroscopy has become an indispensable tool for structure elucidation of natural products, peptides and medium sized to large proteins. Heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) spectroscopy is one of the work horses in that field often used to map structural connectivity between protons and carbons or other hetero nuclei. In overcrowded HSQC spectra, proton multiplet structures of cross peaks set a limit to the power of resolution and make a straightforward assignment difficult. In this work, we provide a solution to improve these penalties by completely removing the proton spin multiplet structure of HSQC cross peaks. Previously reported sideband artefacts are diminished leading to HSQC spectra with singlet responses for all types of proton multipl
