NMRShiftDB is an open source collection of  chemical structures and their associated NMR shift assignments. The database is generated as a result of contributions by the public and currently contains 19,958 structures with 214,136 assigned carbon chemical shifts. Turns out, it is also a GREAT resource for evaluating the accuracy of NMR predictions. Several weeks...

Whether we are talking about a synthetic chemist in the chemical industry, a grad student who does a ton of reactions, or a medicinal chemist in a pharmaceutical company, all of these individuals are using NMR to confirm structures. My company sells a lot of NMR processing software to groups of chemists. How do these...
