Abstract
The last two decades have seen major new developments in the application of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques applied toward structural organic chemistry and biochemistry problems in general, and structural as well as biosynthetic studies of natural products, in particular. The development of superconducting magnets together with the application of pulse techniques and Fourier transformations by faster and more powerful computers have dramatically increased the versatility of NMR analysis.1–7
