Mishra SK, Suryaprakash N. Pure shift edited NMR methodologies for the extraction of Homo- and heteronuclear couplings with ultra-high resolution.

Abstract
The scalar couplings that result in the splitting of the signals in the NMR spectrum arise due to the interaction of the nuclear spins, whereby the spin polarization is transmitted through chemical bonds. The interaction strengths depend inter alia on the number of consecutive chemical bonds intervening between the two interacting spins and on the molecular conformation. The pairwise interaction of many spins in a molecule resulting in a complex spectrum poses a severe challenge to analyse the spectrum and hence the determination of magnitudes and signs of homo- and heteronuclear couplings. The problem is more severe in the analysis of 1H spectra than the spectra of most of the other nuclei due to the often very small chemical shift dispersion. As a consequence, the straightforward analysis and the accurate extraction of the coupling constants from the 1H spectrum of a complex spin system continues to remain a challenge, and often may be a formidable task. Over the years, the several pure shift-based one-dimensional and two-dimensional methodologies have been developed by workers in the field, which provide broadband homonuclear decoupling of proton spectra, removing the complexity but at the cost of the very informative scalar couplings. To circumvent this problem, several one-dimensional and two-dimensional NMR experiments have been developed for the determination of homonuclear and heteronuclear couplings (nJHX, where n = 1,2,3) while retaining the high resolution obtained by implementing pure shift strategies. This review attempts to summarize the extensive work reported by a large number of researchers over the years for the accurate determination of homo- and heteronuclear scalar couplings.

Abstract
The original homonuclear decoupled (pure shift) experiments provide ultrahigh-resolution 1H spectra of compounds containing NMR-active heteronuclei of low natural isotopic abundance (e.g., 13C or 15N). In contrast, molecules containing highly abundant heteronuclei (like 31P or 19F) give doublets or a multiple of doublets in their homonuclear decoupled spectra, depending on the number of heteronuclear coupling partners and the magnitude of the respective coupling constants. In these cases, the complex and frequently overlapping signals may hamper the unambiguous assignment of resonances. Here, we present new heteronuclear decoupled (HD) PSYCHE 1H and TOCSY experiments, which result in simplified spectra with significantly increased resolution, allowing the reliable assessment of individual resonances. The utility of the experiments has been demonstrated on a challenging stereoisomeric mixture of a platinum-phosphine complex, where ultrahigh resolution of the obtained HD PSYCHE spectra made the structure elucidation of the chiral products feasible. HD PSYCHE methods can be potentially applied to other important 31P- or 19F-containing compounds in medicinal chemistry and metabolomics.

Abstract
Their emerging nature as multifunctional effectors explains the large interest to monitor glycan binding to galectins and to define bound-state conformer(s) of their ligands in solution. Basically, NMR spectroscopy facilitates respective experiments. Towards developing new and even better approaches for these purposes, extending the range of exploitable isotopes beyond 1H, 13C, and 15N offers promising perspectives. Having therefore prepared selenodigalactoside and revealed its bioactivity as galectin ligand, monitoring of its binding by 77Se NMR spectroscopy at a practical level becomes possible by setting up a 2D 1H, 77Se CPMG-HSQBMC experiment including CPMG-INEPT long-range transfer. This first step into applying 77Se as sensor for galectin binding substantiates its potential for screening relative to inhibitory potencies in compound mixtures and for achieving sophisticated epitope mapping. The documented strategic combination of synthetic carbohydrate chemistry and NMR spectroscopy prompts to envision to work with isotopically pure 77Se-containing β-galactosides and to build on the gained experience with 77Se by adding 19F as second sensor in doubly labeled glycosides.

Abstract
State-of-the-art nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) selective experiments are capable of directly analyzing crude reaction mixtures. A new experiment named HD-HAPPY-FESTA yields ultrahigh-resolution total correlation subspectra, which are suitable for sign-sensitive determination of heteronuclear couplings, as demonstrated here by measuring the sign and magnitude for proton-fluorine couplings (JHF) from major and minor isomer products of a two-step reaction without any purification. Proton-fluorine couplings ranging from 51.5 to -2.6 Hz could be measured using HD-HAPPY-FESTA, with the smallest measured magnitude of 0.8 Hz. Experimental JHF values were used to identify the two fluoroketone intermediates and the four fluoroalcohol products. Results were rationalized and compared with the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Experimental data were further compared with the couplings reported in the literature, where pure samples were analyzed.

Abstract
The fundamental importance of protein-glycan recognition calls for specific and sensitive high-resolution techniques for their detailed analysis. After the introduction of 19 F NMR spectroscopy to study the recognition of fluorinated glycans, a new 77 Se NMR spectroscopy method is presented for complementary studies of selenoglycans with optimised resolution and sensitivity, in which direct NMR spectroscopy detection on 77 Se is replaced by its indirect observation in a 2D 1 H,77 Se HSQMBC spectrum. In contrast to OH/F substitution, O/Se exchange allows the glycosidic bond to be targeted. As an example, selenodigalactoside recognition by three human galectins and a plant toxin is readily indicated by signal attenuation and line broadening in the 2D 1 H,77 Se HSQMBC spectrum, in which CPMG-INEPT long-range transfer ensures maximal detection sensitivity, clean signal phases, and reliable ligand ranking. By monitoring competitive displacement of a selenated spy ligand, the selective 77 Se NMR spectroscopy approach may also be used to screen non-selenated compounds. Finally, 1 H,77 Se CPMG-INEPT transfer allows further NMR sensors of molecular interaction to be combined with the specificity and resolution of 77 Se NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
Sensitivity and resolution are key considerations for NMR applications in general and for metabolomics in particular, where complex mixtures containing hundreds of metabolites over a large range of concentrations are commonly encountered. There is a strong demand for advanced methods that can provide maximal information in the shortest possible time frame. Here, we present the optimization and application of the recently introduced 2D real-time BIRD 1H-13C HSQC experiment for NMR-based metabolomics of aqueous samples at 13C natural abundance. For mouse urine samples, it is demonstrated how this real-time pure shift sensitivity-improved heteronuclear single quantum correlation method provides broadband homonuclear decoupling along the proton detection dimension and thereby significantly improves spectral resolution in regions that are affected by spectral overlap. Moreover, the collapse of the scalar multiplet structure of cross-peaks leads to a sensitivity gain of about 40-50% over a traditional 2D HSQC-SI experiment. The experiment works well over a range of magnetic field strengths and is particularly useful when resonance overlap in crowded regions of the HSQC spectra hampers accurate metabolite identification and quantitation.

Abstract
Scalar couplings provide important information regarding molecular structure and dynamics. The measurement of scalar coupling constants constitutes a topic of interest and significance in NMR spectroscopy. However, the measurement of J values is often not straightforward because of complex signal splitting patterns and signal overlap. Many methods have been proposed for the measurement of scalar coupling constants, both for homonuclear and heteronuclear cases. Different approaches to the measurement of scalar coupling constants are reviewed here with several applications presented. The accurate measurement of scalar coupling constants can greatly facilitate molecular structure elucidation and the study of molecule dynamics.
