                                            |  | Two-dimensional Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (2D NMR) is hampered by long acquisition times. Consequently, 2D NMR is ill-suited for the study of short timescale phenomena such as kinetic studies or dynamic processes. Fortunately, ultrafast 2D NMR makes it possible to record a 2D NMR correlation in a single scan, and is therefore adapted to real-time studies of fast occurring processes. Here, we describe the application of heteronuclear ultrafast 2D NMR to the kinetic study of D-glucose mutarotation at natural abundance in non-deuterated water. Mutarotation constants are determined with a 10 % precision. The results presented in this paper are a new illustration of the potentialities of ultrafast 2D NMR for real-time kinetic studies. |
