How to copy NMR data as journal text

In the Predicted NMR window, press Copy as journal text. The data is copied as one line in journal style, for example "¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, predicted) δ 4.11 (q, J = 7.0 Hz, 2H), ...". Paste it with Ctrl+V.

Steps

  1. Open the prediction: select the structure and choose Object › Chemistry › Predict 1H NMR (or 13C).

  2. Press Copy as journal text under the table.

  3. Paste it where you need it with Ctrl+V.

For ethyl acetate the ¹H line reads:

¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, predicted) δ 4.11 (q, J = 7.0 Hz, 2H), 2.04 (s, 3H), 1.24 (t, J = 7.0 Hz, 3H).

The line names the field and the solvent, lists each signal from high to low shift with its multiplicity, J and integral, and says predicted.

Warning

Keep the word "predicted" when you paste this into a manuscript. Measured data from your own spectrum belongs in the experimental section; predicted data does not replace it.
