چکیده

The free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-pycrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was tested as a polarising agent for fast dissolution dynamic nuclear polarisation (DNP) NMR spectroscopy. DPPH was found to be reasonably soluble in sulfolane and the optimum concentration for DNP is 20-40 mM depending upon whether short polarisation times or the maximum signal intensity is needed. W-band ESR measurements revealed that the ESR linewidth D of DPPH is intermediate between that of BDPA and 4-oxo-TEMPO. Several thousand-fold NMR signal enhancements in the liquid-state were achieved for (13)C, (15)N, (89)Y, and (109)Ag compounds, demonstrating that DPPH can be added to the list of polarising agents for DNP-NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore, the hydrophobic DPPH free radical can be easily filtered out from the dissolution liquid when water is used as the dissolution solvent.

Influence of deuteration in the glassing matrix on 13C dynamic nuclear polarization.

Replacement of protons by deuterons in the glassing solvents led to 2-3-fold improvement of the (13)C dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) solid-state NMR signal for samples doped with large electron spin resonance (ESR) linewidth free radicals galvinoxyl, DPPH, and 4-oxo-TEMPO. Meanwhile, the reverse effect is observed for (13)C DNP using small ESR linewidth free radicals BDPA and trityl OX063.

Dynamic nuclear polarization with photoexcited triplet electrons in a glassy matrix.

In this decade, dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) using equilibrated electron spin has attracted considerable attention in the fields of NMR spectroscopy and MRI as a method to enhance sensitivity. The intensity of a signal from nuclear spins is proportional to the spin polarization. DNP is a means of transferring spin polarization from electrons to nuclei, and the equilibrated polarization of...
