It has been a continuous interest in measurement of homonuclear scalar coupling constants using two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy because large chemical shift dispersions can efficiently increase spectral resolution. Numerous methods have been developed using homo- and hetero-nuclear correlation and successfully used for a variety of samples. Here we demonstrate an alternative approach based on maximum-quantum correlation NMR spectroscopy (MAXY NMR). The new method combines the advantages of two-dimensional chemical shift dispersion and the spectral editing feature of the MAXY approach and results in separated correlations of CH, CH2, and CH3 groups in a single experiment with enhanced chemical shift resolution. The method had been tested on a middle-sized molecule, dexamethasone, and a tridecapeptide, neurotensin.%偶合常数是一个重要的NMR参数,其数值与分子中化学键的二面角有关,可以为分子结构研究提供很重要的信息.多维NMR谱由于具有较大的化学位移分辨率,因此常常被用来测定同核或异核自旋-自旋偶合常数.本文介绍了利用最高量子相关技术(MAXY)测定同核偶合常数的方法.MAXY是最近发展的一种多维NMR谱编辑技术,可以使不同官能团(CH, CH2, CH3)的相关峰分布于不同的图谱区域,因此比常规的二维谱具有更高的化学位移分辨率.而且被分离开来的NMR相关峰呈吸收性线型,能清楚地展示各自的偶合分裂特征,可以直接用于测定偶合常数.
