The 2H field/frequency lock commonly found on F.T.n.m.r. spectrometers provides a simple but precise method for the measurement of deuterium chemical shifts relative to the corresponding proton shifts; results are reported for a number of systems, and appreciable isotope effects are observed with non-hydrogen bonded protons.
