Abstract

Heteronuclear dipolar decoupling is an essential requirement for extracting structural information from the ^13^C NMR spectra of liquid crystals. Efficient schemes for heteronuclear dipolar decoupling in such systems are formulated here by supercycling SW~f~‐TPPM, a sequence introduced recently for this purpose in rotating solids. These sequences are compared with two other commonly used decoupling schemes in liquid‐crystal NMR, SPINAL‐64 and SW~f~‐TPPM, by analyzing the intensities of various resonances in the proton decoupled ^13^C spectrum of the liquid‐crystal 4‐n‐pentyl‐4′‐cyanobiphenyl (5CB). The effectiveness of the decoupling programs with respect to experimental parameters such as RF field strength, decoupler offset frequency and phase angle is also presented.

## Abstract Recently, a pulse scheme for heteronuclear spin decoupling in solid‐state NMR, called swept‐frequency two‐pulse phase modulation (SW~f~‐TPPM), was introduced which outperforms the standard TPPM and small phase incremental alteration (SPINAL) schemes. It has also been shown that the freq

A new PGSE NMR experiment, designed to measure molecular diffusion coefficients in systems with nonvanishing static dipolar coupling, is described. The fast static dipolar dephasing of the single-quantum 13 C coherences is removed by multiple-pulse heteronuclear decoupling. The resulting slow dephas
