(16) Because of the large difference in abundance of the trans-syn
conformer relative to the cis-syn conformer, and therefore the relatively
high rate constant for the conformational change from cis-syn to trans-
syn, our data are on the limit of what can be processed using the
EXSYCalc algorithm. Thus, conducting the EXSY experiment at 40 °C
generated data that could not be processed, presumably because the
rate of conformational change is now outside the limits of the
algorithm.
