Abstract

An analysis is presented of a new correlation experiment where two self-focusing soft pulses are applied simultaneously to two coupled spins I and S. It is shown that for a certain pulse duration, antiphase dispersion-mode doublets are observed at both sites, although the corresponding single-excitation experiment displays only in-phase absorption. At longer pulse durations appreciable amounts of multiple-quantum coherence are created. Simulations of this behavior are presented in the form of magnetization trajectories during a pair of soft E-BURP-2 pulses, and these predictions are compared with experiments on heteronuclear two-spin systems. The effect (called "TSETSE") shows promise as a one-dimensional correlation experiment and as a practical method of determining scalar coupling constants. An application to the determination of long-range C-H couplings in brucine is reported.
