Reaction Monitoring (R-M)

Many experiments require obtaining a series of FIDs, related to each other through the variation of one or more parameters.

For example, in a kinetics or reaction monitoring (R-M) experiment, a series of spectra are recorded at predetermined time intervals to follow the progress of the reaction.

There are two ways to acquire these kind of experiments:

•Acquiring all spectra at different times and storing those individual spectra

•Instead of acquiring separate data sets, it is very common to keep all acquired spectra into a single NMR experiment, the so-called Arrayed mode

In general, arrayed mode is the most commonly used, although sometimes, acquiring the spectra as individual spectra can offer more flexibility. Of course, Mnova supports both modes.
