This practice elaborates on the different types, definition of basic operational terms, conventions, referencing procedures and substances, and terms and recommended means for signal-to-noise ratio determination and data presentation in the area of high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Some of the basic definitions apply to wide-line NMR or to NMR of metals, but this practice is generally not intended to cover these latter areas of NMR. Also, this version does not include definitions pertaining to double resonance, nor to rotating frame experiments.

This abstract is a brief summary of the referenced standard. It is informational only and not an official part of the standard; the full text of the standard itself must be referred to for its use and application. ASTM does not give any warranty express or implied or make any representation that the contents of this abstract are accurate, complete or up to date.

1. Scope

1.1 This standard contains definitions of basic terms, conventions, and recommended practices for data presentation in the area of high-resolution resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Some of the basic definitions apply to wide-line NMR or to NMR of metals, but in general it is not intended to cover these latter areas of NMR in this standard. This version does not include definitions pertaining to double resonance nor to rotating frame experiments.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
