title: Natural abundance 2H NMR spectra of molecules oriented in liquid crystals.
abstract: It has been demonstrated that the natural abundance 2H NMR spectra of molecules dissolved in liquid crystals can be obtained easily with the help of present-day high-resolution FT NMR spectrometers. Such spectra obtained in the case of benzene and chloroform dissolved in liquid crystals are reported. These experiments could serve as valuable aids for the analysis of the complex proton NMR spectra of oriented molecules.
