title: Measurement of the principal values of the chemical-shift tensors of overlapping protonated and unprotonated carbons with the 2D-SUPER technique and dipolar dephasing (DD-SUPER).
abstract: A modified 2D-SUPER technique is demonstrated to allow independent measurement of the principal values of the chemical-shift tensors of overlapping protonated and unprotonated carbons. The insertion of a dipolar-dephasing period into the sequence causes loss of signal from protonated carbons. The spectrum obtained with this modification allows one to determine the principal values of the unprotonated carbons with high precision. Subsequent fitting of the usual 2D-SUPER spectrum, with the chemical-shift parameters of the unprotonated carbons fixed, gives the parameters of the overlapped resonances of the protonated carbons. As an example, we report the determination of the (13)C chemical-shift parameters of the carbons of form II of piroxicam. The experimental results are compared with those obtained from calculations using the DFT/GIAO method. Potential applications of this method are discussed.
