Quantitative Low-Field 19F Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Analysis of Carbonyl Groups in Pyrolysis Oils

Invited for this month ' s cover is the collaboration between Dr Rob Evans at Aston University, Birmingham, UK and Prof. Art Ragauskas at University of Tennessee, Knoxville and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, USA. The image illustrates that low-field, or benchtop, NMR spectrometers can be as effective as their higher-field counterparts in the accurate, quantitative analysis of bio-oils. The Research Article itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.202300625.
