Graphical Interactive Strategy for the Analysis of NMR Spectra in Liquid Crystalline Phases
TLDR
Spectral analysis of lH NMR spectra of molecules dissolved in liquid crystalline phases to obtain spectral parameters (chemical shifts, Jv indirect and Di, direct couplings) is usually a difficult and time-consuming task due to the peculiar characteristic of this kind of spectra. Expand
