Double-Quantum MAS NMR Spectroscopy

HR-MAS NMR Spectroscopy in Material Science

In the early to mid-90’s, NMR studies were being published that recognized the power of magic angle spinning (MAS) to increase resolution in materials that were not strictly solids by averaging differences in magnetic susceptibility and residual dipolar coupling inherent in these samples. The method of utilizing MAS for non-solid materials to produce liquid-like NMR lines was termed High-Resolu...

Insights into the Acid–Base Properties of PtIV–Diazidodiam(m)inedihyroxido Complexes from Multinuclear NMR Spectroscopy

Platinum(IV) am(m)ine complexes are of interest as potential anticancer pro-drugs, but there are few reports of their acid-base properties. We have studied the acid-base properties of three photoactivatable anticancer platinum(IV)-diazidodiam(m)ine complexes (cis,trans,cis-[Pt(IV)(N(3))(2)(OH)(2)(NH(3))(2)], trans,trans,trans-[Pt(IV)(N(3))(2)(OH)(2)(NH(3))(2)], and cis,trans-[Pt(IV)(N(3))(2)(OH...

Multinuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging and NMR Spectroscopy in Biomedical Investigations

Biomedical investigations with small animals using 0.5-T and 7-T MRI scanners adjusted on the Larmor frequencies of different nuclei 1H, 2H, 11B, 13C, 19F, 23Na, 31P, 35Cl are described. Experiments on registration of signals 19F from the fluorocarbons injected in laboratory animals are discussed. They give presentation on the application of fluorocarbon compounds as blood substitutes and contr...

Time-resolved Spectroscopy Fast Time-resolved Mid-infrared Spectroscopy Using an Interferometer

The development of fast time-resolved mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy since the 1980s has provided an effective tool for the study of transient chemical species in dynamic systems.1,2 Interest in this particular spectroscopy stems from the virtual universality of infrared (IR) absorption, the rich molecular structural information contained in the MIR spectrum, and the fast time scale of vibrati...
