  • Zusammenfassung: <jats:title>SUMMARY</jats:title><jats:p>Since the concentration of free radicals in humic subtances increases at high pH the use of basic solutions for <jats:sup>13</jats:sup>C NMR spectroscopy may cause broadening and loss of aromatic signals, with distortion of intensity distributions. No such effects were found in <jats:sup>13</jats:sup>C spectra of soil humic and fulvic acid, an aquatic fulvic acid, and two phenolic polymers run in aqueous solutions at different pH values, and in dimethylsulphoxide. With increasing pH, the peak in the carboxyl region shifted in a manner consistent with greater dissociation of carboxyl and phenolic groups, and also certain features in the aliphatic and carboxyl regions were enhanced under some solution conditions. Elevated solution temperature (70°C) caused only slight improvement in the resolution of some lines. Chemical shifts were determined for some known phenolic and benzenecarboxylic acid compounds in DMSO and NaOD. The range for phenolic carbons extended to 173 ppm in NaOD, while some aromatic carbons occurred around 105 ppm, in the same region as anomeric carbons. Thus, even under quantitative acquisition conditions, relative areas may be used only to estimate proportions of different types of carbons and functional groups.</jats:p>
