Definitions:

Proton Decoupled

A technique in NMR spectroscopy where the coupling between nuclear spins is removed, often leading to simpler spectra.

Compounds

Substances formed from two or more elements chemically bonded together in fixed proportions.

Distinction

A differentiation between two or more substances or concepts based on their characteristics or properties.

Proton Spin Decoupled

A nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy technique that simplifies complex spectra by removing interactions between proton spins, aiding in structure determination.
