Graphical Abstract

As a novel approach for studying carbohydrate–lectin interactions spectroscopically, we combine the resolution and specificity of 19F-detected NMR spectroscopy with the sensitivity of the saturation transfer difference (STD) technique. The resulting background-free 19F-STD spectra open a promising perspective for broad application with medical relevance, for example, in drug discovery.
