Long-range carbon-carbon connectivity via unsymmetrical indirect covariance processing of HSQC and HMBC NMR data.
It was recently demonstrated that an IDR- (Inverted Direct Response) HSQC-TOCSY data set could be decomposed into a negatively phased direct response spectrum and a positively phased relayed response spectrum that could then be subjected to unsymmetrical indirect covariance processing for the removal of artifacts due to response overlap in the proton NMR spectrum of the molecule. Using experimentally discrete HSQC and HMBC data sets, it is shown that unsymmetrical indirect covariance processing of the pair of NMR spectra affords a presentation containing long-range carbon-carbon connectivity information. The method is demonstrated using strychnine as a model compound. The resulting data are largely free of artifacts although artifacts can arise due to proton response overlap, as previously reported.
