Deuterated solvents are solvents that contain deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, instead of the more common hydrogen-1 isotope. These solvents are essential in NMR spectroscopy as they do not produce signals in the proton NMR spectrum, allowing for clearer analysis of the sample being studied. Their use helps in minimizing interference and enhances the quality of the spectral data obtained from both 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy.
congrats on reading the definition of Deuterated Solvents. now let's actually learn it.
