Abstract

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful analytical tool that can be used in the elucidation of chemical structures and is widely applied both in academia and industry. Despite using computer-assisted structure elucidation systems, interpretation of NMR data is often laborious, requires high levels of expertise and is not immune to ambiguities. In this multi-disciplinary study, we developed a design of a novel system using a Constraint Satisfaction (CS) framework to utilise unannotated NMR spectra. Additionally, our system allows the utilisation of complementary information obtained/known outside the scope of NMR. Herein we describe a prototype implementation and its empirical evaluation on a set of amino acids, which are a diverse class of important biological compounds. We further employ the CS approach to show the principle limits (ambiguity) of the NMR method in molecular structure elucidation.
