High-resolution NMR spectroscopy is the most versatile, reliable, and generally acceptable technique for the determination of the microstructure of polymers. 2D NMR techniques, along with 1D NMR, have more potential to study absolute configurational assignments and sequence distribution of copolymers. Physical and chemical properties of polymers are influenced fundamentally by their microstructure. We discuss the detailed microstructure analysis of a large number of homopolymers, copolymers, and terpolymers. 2D NMR study of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA), and poly(methacrylonitrile) (PMAN) is discussed in this article. In addition to homopolymers, 2D heteronuclear single-quantum coherence (HSQC), total correlation spectroscopy (TOCSY), and heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation (HMBC) study of different copolymers such as poly(methyl methacrylate-co-methyl acrylate), poly(styrene-co-methyl methacrylate), and poly(methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylonitrile) have also been reported here. This in turn helps in microstructural analysis of terpolymers such as poly(methacrylonitrile-co-styrene-co-methyl methacrylate), poly(acrylonitrile-co-methyl methacrylate-co-methyl acrylate), and poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate-co-carbon monoxide).
