    Abstract:

    Using a novel scheme of polarization-dependent excitation and detection, the molecular orientation of hemicyanine monolayers has been studied. Wavelength-dependent measurements of the average tilt angle of molecules within the monolayer reveal details of aggregate formation and mobilization of these aggregates by addition of diluting agents such as arachidic acid.

    2D NMR: Heteronuclear Single-Quantum Correlation Spectroscopy (HSQC)

    Heteronuclear single-quantum correlation spectroscopy (HSQC) is a 2D NMR technique that reveals one-bond correlations between hydrogen and a heteronucleus. The HSQC experiment is similar to the heteronuclear correlation experiment (HETCOR) but is more sensitive. In the HSQC spectrum, the proton chemical shift is plotted on the horizontal F2 axis, while the 13C chemical shift is plotted on the vertical F1 axis. The corresponding proton and 13C spectra are also shown. The HSQC contour plot does...

    2D NMR: Homonuclear Correlation Spectroscopy (COSY)

    Homonuclear correlation spectroscopy, or COSY, is a 2-dimensional NMR technique that provides information about coupled protons. Typically, the geminal and vicinal coupling are observed. For example, consider the COSY spectrum of ethyl acetate, where its 1D proton NMR spectrum is plotted along the vertical and horizontal axes with their corresponding chemical shift scale. Three spots on the diagonal corresponding to the three peaks in the 1D proton spectrum are called diagonal peaks. The COSY...
