(LLCs) in a pair of coupled protons have
long lifetimes and hence decreased line width and increased spectral
resolution. Fourier transformation of the damped oscillatory decay
of the LLC also provides coupling information on the spin system.
In a three-spin system, unlike in the two-spin case, the peaks in
an LLC spectrum are observed at combinations of the coupling constants.
This attribute is used to determine the relative signs of the coupling
constants in weakly and strongly coupled model systems. In addition,
it is shown that a coupling constant in a three-spin system that is
unobservable in the 1H NMR spectrum, as is the case in
bispidinone, a molecule of significance in peptidomimetics, may be
determined from the LLC spectrum.
