2) Basic Safety
NMR lab consists of 4 major items: Magnet, Console, Workstation, and 5 Gauss line.
See figure 1
NMR Magnets are always live and always at field. Be sure that nothing ferromagnetic is
near them. Nothing within the 5 Gauss line including:
Tools Cell phones
Staples IPods
Metal jewelry USB drives
Metal furniture Credit cards/Student ID cards
Place these items in the basket near the computers.
Figure 1 below shows UMass Lowell NMR lab 0G-8.

Work Station 5 Gauss Line
NMRs are superconducting magnets which are relatively safe and have no known side effects. People
fitted with cardiac pacemakers and metallic implants should not go near the magnet. The magnet is
potentially hazardous due to:
1. The large attractive force it exerts on ferromagnetic objects.
2. The large content of liquid Nitrogen and Helium.
A Magnetic Field surrounds the magnet in all directions. Any ferromagnetic objects will be attracted to
the magnet, be drawn towards the magnet, and could damage the magnet of a person in the way. The
inner zone is within the taped and roped off areas, and the outer zone is safe.
The magnet contains two dewars with one containing liquid helium and one containing liquid nitrogen.
They are used to keep the magnet core at a very low temperature. Helium and nitrogen are non-toxic
gases, however, they can quickly displace breathable air in a closed room. If the magnet quenches, i.e.
gases come from top of magnet, please evacuate the room immediately.
3) NMR Basics and Theory
NMR is a technique used to analyze many compounds.
NMR compliments other structural and analytical techniques.
NMR is non-destructive.
An NMR experiment consists of 3 steps:
a) Place a sample in a static magnetic field.
b) Excite nuclei with a radio frequency pulse.
c) Measure the frequency of signals emitted by sample.
5
These emitted frequencies lead to information about the bonding and arrangement of
atoms in the sample. The NMR active nuclei resonate at diferent frequencies called
“‘resonance frequencies”. The variation in resoannce frequencies is referred to as “chemical
shift”. The resonance frequency is shifted by the effect of neighboring atoms and in
particular the extent of magnetic sheilding from local electrons.
o Nuclei with odd mass or odd atomic number have “nuclear spin”.
i.e. 1
H, 13
C, 31
P, 19
F
o Nucleus is charged particle in motion and behaves like tiny magnet. o In applied magnetic field, the nuclei line up spin aligned or opposed.
4) Magnet Design
Figure 2
6
A sample is placed in a strong magnetic field.
A strong Radio frequency (RF) field is also imposed on the sample to excite the nuclei
spins into their higher energy state.
When this strong RF signal is switched off, the spins return to their lowest state,
producing a small amount of radiation.
This induces a radio frequency signal in the detector coil which is amplified to display
the NMR signal.
Currently, there is an inverse probe in the 500NMR.
A sample is spun to average the magnetic field variations and the NMR tube
imperfections.
Probes contain radio frequency coils, tuned at specific frequencies for specific nuclei in a
given magnetic field.
Probes contain two coils, one inner and one outer.
Inverse probes give highest sensitivity y to 1H nuclei (inner coil).
The NMR spectrum is able to provide details about:
• Types of atoms present in the sample
• Relative amounts of atoms present in the sample
• Specific environments of atoms within the sample
• Purity and composition of sample
• Structural information about molecule
There are a number of important characteristics of the NMR spectrum which allow it to be useful to a
wide array of industrial, commercial, and research applications:
• There are many nuclei which are NMR active. Some of the more common NMR active nuclei are 1H, 13C, 19F, and 31P.
• NMR is usually a non-destructive technique.
• Analysis requires only small amount of material :5-20mg sample sizes.
• Sample preparation is simple and minimal.

A. Proton NMR Spectroscopy
Chemical shifts ranges from 1-15ppm
Integration of peaks leads to number of protons
Electronic enviroment leads to different chemical shifts
Spin-spin coupling leads to splitting of NMR signals due to Magnetic interaction of
neighboring protons.
Each proton “senses’ the number of equivalent protons (n) on the carbon atom(s) next to them.
Resonance peak is split into n+1 peaks
8
B. Carbon-13 NMR Spectroscopy
o Carbon-13 has a nuclear spin (I=1/2)
o 13C makes up 1.1% of all naturally occurring carbon
13C NMR spectroscopy provides that following information:
The number of different types of carbon atoms
The electronic environment of different types of carbons.
The number of neighbors a carbon has
Quartet at 4.04ppm
Triplet at 1.17ppm
Singlet at 1.96ppm
2 Protons 3 Protons 3 Protons
9
Differences between 1H and 13C
No integration of carbon spectra.
Wide range (0 to 200ppm) of resonances for common carbon atoms, whereas the typical range
for proton NMR is 1-15ppm.
C-13 NMR spectroscopy is much less sensitive than proton NMR.

C. Pulse Fourier Transform
Excite all proton Nuclei in a molecule at the same time, followed by a mathematical analysis of
the comples radio frequencies emitted as they relax back to the equilibrium state.
I. A sample is palced in a strong magnetic field
II. A strong radio freqeuncy pulse is also imposed on the same to excite some of the
nuclear spins into their higher energy state
III. When this strong radio frequency signal is switched off, the spins tend to return to their
lower state, producing a small amount of radiation
IV. The emission of radiation is associated with the ‘spin relaxation’ of the protons from
their excited state. It induces a radio freqeuncy signal in the detector coil which is
amplified to a FID signal. FID stands for free induction decay and it is based on time.
Using Fourier Transform, this FID signal is changed to a frequency signal .
5) Sample Preparation.
A. Quantity
For a 1H spectra, the quantity of sample needed is 5 to 25mg. 13C spectra are six thousand times less
sensitive than 1H spectra, thus a good rule of thumb is to give as much material as will give a
saturated solution.
B. Clarity
Filter all samples into a NMR tube, so that there are no solid particles. You should filter through a
small plug of glass wool tightly packed into a Pasteur pipette.
C. Deuterated Solvents
Samples must be dissolved using solvents that contain deuterium instead of hydrogen. Using
deuterated solvents helps to prevent unwanted solvent signals. Second, the frequency of the
deuterium (2H) NMR signal “locks” the magnetic field. It ensures that the magnetic field doesn’t
change during an NMR experiment.
11
D. Sample Volume
The amount of volume in the NMR tube should be 4.5cm to 5.5cm (0.5ml to 0.7ml). If you have less
volume in the NMR tube, the sample will be hard to shim. See figure 3 below.
Figure 3
12
E. NMR Tubes
The NMR tubes and caps should be clean, dry, and undamaged. They should be rinsed after each
use with Acetone, at the minimum, and dried with a blast of nitrogen. Do not place your NMR tube
in an oven to dry. I recommend using an NMR tube cleaner and rinsing 3 times each with water,
methanol, chloroform, acetone. The NMR magnet uses 5mm NMR tubes. Do not use any other size.
Using cheaper NMR tubes will affect the quality of your spectrum. Clean tube immediately after use.
F. Label your sample
Be sure each sample is clearly identified, but do not use tape that could leave a flap or fall off inside
the magnet. Labeling the top part of the NMR tube with a Sharpie marker is acceptable or the NMR
tube cap, or try to use different colored NMR tube caps.
6) Spinner and Depth Gauge.
Figure 4
The NMR tube must be positioned properly in the spinner before it can be placed into the NMR
instrument. The spinner has a gripping mechanism to hold the NMR tube securely in place. See
figure 4 above. Before the tube is inserted into the spinner, it should be wiped off with a Kim-
wipe. Grease or dirt will lead to the spinner no longer working effectively. IF the NMR tube
slides easily up and down the spinner, then you should not load your sample using that spinner.
Try another spinner or ask the NMR technician.
NMR tubes must be positioned at the proper depth in the spinner using the depth gauge. This
is done to make sure that your sample is in the detected region of the NMR probe once the
spinner is lowered into the NMR instrument. The tube should never exceed the maximum
sample depth. If you exceed this depth, the sample or the probe or both could break. The depth
gauge should be set for 5mm tube depth.
13
The bottom of the NMR tube and the solution meniscus at the top should be equidistant from
the center of the detected region. It will be difficult to shim if the NMR tube is positioned
improperly.
B. Proton NMR Experiment
1.) Data Set
I. Login to PC Work Station of the 500MHZ NMR Instrument.
a) Enter your user name. It should be your name all in lower case letters.
b) Enter your password. Passwords are case sensitive.
II. Open the TopSpinTM NMR Software.
a) Double click on the icon labeled TopSpin 2.1.
2.) Create a dataset to acquire, process, and save the NMR data.
Before you acquire any new data, you should always create a new data set in which it can be stored. This will prevent overwriting existing data.
i. Click on FILE at tope of screen. Select New from newly opened window. A new window appears for the creation of a new dataset that can be used to acquire, process, and save the NMR data. See figure 5 below.

o Change NAME of the file and EXPNO, if needed. Dashes and underlines are acceptable in
file names (No special characters!). Do not change PROCONO or DIR. DIR and USER should
be set to your parameters already. There should be no need to change solvent and type of
experiment. Enter sample name, solvent and date in TITLE. Click on OK when finished.
3.) Loading Sample
Introducing the spinner with the NMR tube into the magnet is done on a cushion of air. This
is called “lift air”. Never drop a sample into the magnet with no lift air flowing. NEVER put
depth gauge in magnet!
4.) Press the LIFT On/Off Key on the top of control board under sample. Hear the sound of air.
(CAUTION: Do not proceed to the next step, if you don’t hear the activation of the air
sound.) Wait for the sample in the magnet to come-up at the top of the magnet. Take it
out. While air is on, drop your sample in the spinner at the top of the magnet.

5.) Press the LIFT On/Off key again on control board and the sample is gently lowered into the
magnet on a cushion of air. Look for Green light to the right of DOWN on BSMS Control
Board.
6.) Locking on the Deuterium Signal of the Solvent of the
o All superconducting magnets run down slowly over time. This is called magnetic drift. The
deuterium (2H) NMR signal is used to ensure the magnetic field doesn’t change during the
NMR experiment. The frequency of the 2H NMR from the solvent deuterium “locks” the
magnetic field. Once locked, the magnetic field cannot drift even for long-term acquisitions.
o The lock-level corresponds to the height of the lock (2H) NMR signal. A narrow (sharp) lock
peak will be taller (i.e. larger lock level) and a broad lock signal will be shorter (i.e. lower lock
level). Therefore, the lock-level is an indicator of how broad or sharp the peal of the 2H
solvent signal is.
1) lockdisp [lockdisp=lock display] A Lock display window opens with the
lock signal visible in the lock display window. See Figure 6 below.
2) Type lock . A new window appears with a list of solvents. Click on the solvent of
your sample, and click on OK in this window. Lock signal will be locked. Wait for lock: finished to appear in the status line at bottom of screen.
Figure 6
The lock-level should be between the 3rd and 4th line of the lock window. If it is not, you should try locking again (type in lock and choose your solvent)
16
7.) Shimming
To achieve good resolution, the magnetic field must be homogeneous. However, the
sample distorts the magnetic field. The “shims” are coils of wire that surround the sample
probe, and they allow one to re-shape the magnetic field. Good shimming means achieving
an optimal, homogeneous magnetic field. Good shimming is the key to getting a good, high-
resolution NMR spectrum.
Increasing lock-level is indicative of a narrower lock peak, so we adjust the shims to achieve
the highest possible lock-level. This will correspond to the best possible line shape.
Common reasons for poor shims are:
o Not loading a good starting shim set
o low quality NMR tube
o Insufficient volume of solution
o Improperly positioned NMR tube
o Unusual nature of the sample (i.e. highly concentrated)
For each sample, you need to optimize shims. Every sample has unique magnetic
susceptibility which is a measure of how well a sample can accommodate magnetic field
lines. Shims compensate for these heterogeneities to make the field as homogeneous as
possible.
Low quality NMR tubes have varying thicknesses, and the tube itself may have a
heterogeneous composition. A good NMR tube will have unvarying chemical composition,
will be perfectly cylindrical, and will have a perfectly rounded bottom.
During shimming, the currents in the shim coils are adjusted so the small magnetic field
gradients produced cancel the inhomogeneity of the main magnetic field.
17
a. Type topshim . This will take a few minutes. Don’t worry about where the lock signal
ends up. If you receive an error message, type topshim again and see if it can shim the second time. If it still fails, your sample may be too concentrated.
b. Manual Shimming a. Shim on ON-AXIS Shims [Axial Shims]. b. Press ON-AXIS key located at lower-left corner of control key board.
c. Press the Z1 button and maximize lock level position by turning the big knob on the
control panel counterclockwise. Use the LOCK GAIN button to lower the lock signal
if the lock signal goes too high off the screen. You can also press the FINE button on the bottom of the control key when you first start to shim. Once your shims are becoming constant, you can re-press the FINE key.
d. Once the Z1 shims are constant, press the Z2 button and maximize lock level. Go
back to Z1 and Z2, if necessary, to attain higher lock level. e. Repeat this procedure until you do not see any changes in the lock signal position.
c. Shim on OFF-AXIS Shims [Radial shims](Only if not spinning) I. Press the X button and then the Z0 button. Maximize the position of the lock signal
using big knob on the control panel. II. Press Y button and then Z0 button. Maximize lock signal position.
d. Press stdby key at bottom of control key board.

8.) Acquiring NMR data
1. Type rpar PROTON all . [rpar: read parameters]. Proton must be
capitalized. Select and read a predefined parameter set.
2. Type getprosol . This command loads probe-specific acquisition parameters
including pulse widths and pulse powers. This gets probehead and solvent
dependent parameters.
3. Type ii . [ii = initialize interfaces] This interfaces PC work station with the NMR
console.
4. Type rga . [rga: automatic receiver gain adjustment] This sets up the pulse
program. A NMR experiment involves exciting the sample with a precisely defined
sequence of radio frequency (rf) pulses. It is a set of pulses interspersed with delays.
5. Type ns . [ns: number of scans]
a) The accumulation of a number of transients (scans) will improve the quality of
the spectrum. The number of acquisitions is specified with the parameter NS.
b) NS should be in multiples of 8 to accommodate standard phase cycling which is
incorporated into pulse programs.
c) A new window appears with NS=16 for a proton NMR. Change value if
necessary.
d) Press return key.
e) Type expt . This estimates the experiment time.
6. Type zg . [zg: zero and go, data acquisition.] This begins the acquisition of
data.
a. Halt = halt current acquisition and save the FIDs till this point
b. Stop = stop current acquisition and do NOT save the FID.
c. Go = add more scans to your current data. If you need more scans than you
have already run, typing in go and return will run the same number of scans
again and add to your FIDs.

lift On/Off button again.
B. Choose file/new and name the new sample.
C. If repeating the same NMR experiment, i.e. proton, you do not need to type rpar
PROTON all, getprosol, or ii, since we have already done that with the first sample.
D. If using the same solvent, the NMR should find the lock again(I.e. same lock level as
previous experiment) without typing in lock. Check the lock display. If not, Type lock
and return. Choose the solvent.
E. Shim the sample using Z1, Z2,(If non-spin: XZ0, YZ0). Each sample will distort the magnetic
field differently depending on concentration, NRM tube quality, amount of solvent, etc.
Therefore, each sample should be shimmed.

1. When the scans finished, you NMR spectrum is complete. It is already saved. You can now
remove your sample from the magnet and replace it with the standard sampleusing Lift
On/Off button.
2. You should lock the signal for the standard sample. Type lock and choose CDCl3. It is very
important that the magnet is left locked. Be sure the Lock On/Off button on the BSMS
control board is lit solid green, not flashing! Shimming the reference would be the optimal
way the leave the NMR. If another user is waiting, they can just load their sample instead of
putting back in the reference standard.
