High-resolution and high-sensitivity 2D homonuclear J-resolved NMR spectroscopy.

This paper describes the implementation of the pure absorption ALPESTRE processing of 2D homonuclear J-resolved NMR spectra. The method relies on the computation of the missing information at negative evolution times by means of backward linear prediction. The paper also shows that resolution can be improved by application of time-symmetric apodization functions. The resulting spectra clearly display negative peaks at F(2) chemical shifts that correspond to strong coupling artifacts, thus making it possible to identify them as such.
