RT Journal Article T1 J‐filter: An experiment to simplify and isolate specific signals in 1H NMR spectra of complex mixtures based on scalar coupling constants A1 Vilela Góñez, Karen A1 Suárez García, Juan A1 Sardina López, Francisco Javier A1 Pazos, Yolanda A1 Saá, Ángela A1 Martín Pastor, Manuel K1 NMR of mixtures K1 NMR scalar coupling filter K1 Selective experiment K1 Signal edition and filtering AB One-dimensional selective NMR experiments relying on a J-filter element are proposed to isolate specific signals in crowded 1H spectral regions. The J-filter allows the edition or filtering of signals in a region of interest of the spectrum by exploiting the specific values of their 1H-1H coupling constants and certain parameters of protons coupled to them that appear in less congested parts of the spectrum (chemical shifts and coupling constants). The new experiments permitted the isolation of specific peaks of phytosterol components in a sample obtained from a liquid nutraceutical recommended for lowering blood cholesterol levels in regions with complete overlap in the 1H spectrum.
