Pulse Programme Considerations for Quantitative NOE Analysis
Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry, EarlyView.NOESY and ROESY spectra are frequently used to obtain interatomic distances in solution. Here, the performance of six routinely used pulse programmes is evaluated, with the number of quantified correlations and the accuracy of the NOE‐based distances being used as the main assessment criteria. ABSTRACT Accurate NOE/ROE‐based distance determination is a
