Term | Definition |
---|---|
Chemical Shift | Difference (ppm) between the resonance frequency of the proton being absorbed and that of TMS |
Down Field | Lower value of the applied magnetic field, toward the left on the NMR spectrum, the more DESHEILDED a nucleus is, the farther down field it absorbs |
Upfield | Higher value, toward the right, more sheiled a nucleus is, the farther upfield it absorbs |
Complex splitting | Splitting by 2 or more different kinds of protons w/ different coupling constants |
Integration | measurement of the area under a peak, proportional to the # of protons giving rise to that peak |
Multiplet | group of peaks resulting from the spin-spin splitting of the signal from a single type of nucleus |
Desheilded | Bonded to a group that withdraws part of the electron density from around the nucleus |
Sheilded | Surrounded by electrons whose induced magnetic field opposes the externally applied magnetic field |
TMS | Tetramethylsaline, an NMR standard absorption...0.00 |
MRI | Medical term for NMR, avoiding the term nuclear. Use of field gradients in a large bore magnet to scan 2-D slices of the patient's body |
