ga
to acquire the spectrum.
6.
Plot the spectrum using
wp=50
and use
dres
to determine the linewidth at 50% of
the decoupled peak.
7.
Do the following if decoupling is not complete:
a.
Obtain a proton spectrum in a different experiment.
b.
Set the cursor at the center of the single peak
c.
Enter

e.
Record the value.
8.
Enter
jexp
n, where n is the experiment number of the carbon experiment
(e.g.,
jexp2
