We present a new method for recording broadband proton-decoupled proton spectra with absorption mode lineshapes and substantially correct integrals; in both these respects, the new method has significant advantages over conventional J-spectroscopy. In our approach, the decoupled spectrum is simply obtained from the 45 degrees projection of the diagonal-peak multiplets of an anti z-COSY spectrum. This method is straightforward to apply, and does not require any unusual data processing. However, there is a significant reduction in sensitivity when compared to a conventional proton spectrum. The method is demonstrated for typical medium-sized molecules, and it is also shown how such a decoupled spectrum can be used to advantage in measurements of diffusion constants (DOSY), the measurement of relaxation parameters, and the analysis of complex mixtures.

D011522	Protons	Stable elementary particles having the smallest known positive charge, found in the nuclei of all elements. The proton mass is less than that of a neutron. A proton is the nucleus of the light hydrogen atom, i.e., the hydrogen ion.	Hydrogen Ions,Hydrogen Ion,Ion, Hydrogen,Ions, Hydrogen,Proton
D002164	Camphor	A bicyclic monoterpene ketone found widely in plants, especially CINNAMOMUM CAMPHORA. It is used topically as a skin antipruritic and as an anti-infective agent.	Camphor, (+-)-Isomer,Camphor, (1R)-Isomer,Camphor, (1S)-Isomer
D012680	Sensitivity and Specificity	Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed)	Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity
D045424	Complex Mixtures	Mixtures of many components in inexact proportions, usually natural, such as PLANT EXTRACTS; VENOMS; and MANURE. These are distinguished from DRUG COMBINATIONS which have only a few components in definite proportions.
