Small molecule NMR

Small molecule NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) is a technique used by scientists to study the structure and behavior of small chemical compounds at the atomic level. It works by placing molecules in a strong magnetic field and applying radio waves, which cause nuclei (like hydrogen) to emit signals. These signals reveal the environment and connections of atoms within the molecule. This information helps identify and analyze substances, such as drugs, natural products, or chemicals, providing detailed insights into their composition and structure essential for research and development.
