= Proton nuclear magnetic resonance
{wiki=Proton_nuclear_magnetic_resonance}
Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) is a powerful analytical technique used in chemistry and biochemistry to determine the structure of organic compounds and the dynamics of molecular systems. It relies on the magnetic properties of certain atomic nuclei, in this case, the hydrogen nucleus (proton). In ¹H NMR, a sample is placed in a strong magnetic field and subjected to radiofrequency radiation. The protons within the sample resonate at specific frequencies that depend on their chemical environment.
