13C NMR with 1H and 31P Decoupling
NMR users are very familiar with the advantages of proton decoupling when observing 13C. The 13C NMR spectra of phosphorus containing compounds can be made simpler by applying 31P decoupling either on its own or in addition to proton decoupling. The figure below shows the 13C NMR spectrum of dimethyl methylphosphonate with all possible combinations of proton and 31P decoupling. The data collection required a triple resonance probe with the appropriate band pass filters.

Hi Glenn,
how did you manage to run a 13C NMR experiment with both, 1H and 31P decoupling? Which pulse programe and which decouple technique did you use?
Cheers
Kai
Hi Kai,
I used a Bruker 3 channel AVANCE 500 with a triple resonance X/31P/1H 5mm probe. The X channel of the probe was tuned to 13C. I used a 202 MHz bandpass filter on the 31P channel, a 125 MHz bandpass filter on the X channel and a 500 MHz bandpass filter on the 1H channel. I bought these filters from a a company called "DCI". I modified a standard Bruker zgpg pulse program to incorporate inverse gated decoupling from the F3 channel. (be below)

Hi Glenn,
after I received the correct low-pass filter (13C pass; 31P stop), the experiment works very well!
Thanks for you help!
Cheers
Kai
