Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

NMR spectroscopy is suitable for all stages of pre-clinical research and development of new nucleic acid drugs, and can detect the nature of organic compounds and the interaction of their surrounding chemical environment.

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) can be applied to the following research:

  1. Spatial structure analysis of drug target molecules such as proteins and nucleic acid molecules;
  2. Structure analysis of small molecule lead compounds and natural products;
  3. Research on the molecular mechanism of protein-ligand interaction;
  4. High-throughput screening of small molecules;
  5. Research on drug structure-activity relationship;
  6. Toxicology and safety evaluation of new drugs, etc.

Classification of NMR spectrometers:

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Choose the NMR analyzer suitable for samples:

  Continuous wave NMR spectrometer Pulse Fourier Transform NMR Spectrometer
Principle The RF field is continuously applied to the sample, a single frequency is emitted, and a resonance spectrum line is obtained With a constant magnetic field, a strong and short radio frequency pulse is used to irradiate the sample, and the induced current signal is Fourier transformed to obtain a general nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum.
Features
  • Long time, usually full scan time is 200-300 seconds
  • Low sensitivity
  • The amount of sample required is large
  • For some samples that are difficult to obtain, NMR analysis cannot be performed
  • High sensitivity (100 times)
  • Measurement speed is fast. Generally, 1 h NMR measurement is accumulated 10-20 times, and it takes about 60 s
  • Small sample amount

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

General procedure of NMR spectroscopy analysis:

  • Preparation of NMR tube: Choose a NMR tube of appropriate specifications, and ensure that it is cleaned and dried.
  • Preparation of sample solution: Choose a suitable solvent and control the concentration of the sample solution.
  • Shimming treatment before testing: Load the NMR tube into the instrument, rotate it, and perform shimming.
  • Sample scan: According to the molecular weight of the sample, select the appropriate scan times.
  • Result analysis: save the data and use special software to analyze the spectrum.

Advantages of NMR spectroscopy analysis services:

  • Rapidity.
  • High sensitivity.
  • High sample throughput.
  • Integrity and system: NMR single measurement can simultaneously detect and analyze primary (such as carbohydrates, amino acids) and secondary metabolites.
  • Strong structure derivation and identification capabilities: it can clarify the structure of unknown chemical components.
  • Accurate quantitative analysis can be performed without preparing a standard curve: the peak area of the NMR signal is directly proportional to the number of protons that cause the signal.
  • Sample preparation is simple: the medicinal material samples can be extracted directly with deuterated reagents, and the analysis is fast.
  • Universality: As long as the chemical composition contains protons, it can be detected and analyzed.
