Résumé

The SERF experiment is a variant of the homonuclear J-resolved experiment, in which a single coupling constant is measured. It consists of a single chemical shift selective excitation that is followed by a biselective spin echo. Recent articles mention the existence of artefacts in SERF spectra that are supposedly related to pulse imperfections. This article presents a detailed study of the biselective refocusing pulses. It also reports a method for predicting the position and amplitude of the expected and unexpected 2D spectral peaks in SERF spectra. Artefacts can be partially eliminated by phase cycling or by the introduction of static field gradient pulses in the acquisition sequence. A procedure to obtain of pure absorption peaks in SERF spectra is proposed.
