Abstract

Summary: Poly[ethylene‐co‐(butyl acrylate)‐co‐(carbon monoxide)] (polyEBC) samples, prepared from ^13^C‐labeled carbon monoxide, were characterized using two dimensional (2D) pulsed field gradient (PFG) 750 MHz NMR spectroscopy. To elucidate the complex mixture of structures present in this terpolymer, 2D ^1^H/^13^C‐heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) experiments were conducted by selectively exciting the enhanced peaks resulting from ^13^C‐labeling. High resolution 2D NMR combined with ^13^C‐labeling of the polymer greatly simplifies the 2D NMR spectra, selectively enhances the weak peaks from low occurrence C‐centered triad structures and aids in their resonance assignments.
