Saturation factor of nitroxide radicals in liquid DNP by pulsed ELDOR experiments.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose the use of the pulse electron double resonance (ELDOR) method to determine the effective saturation factor of nitroxide radicals for dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) experiments in liquids. The obtained values for the nitroxide radical TEMPONE-D,(15)N at different concentrations are rationalized in terms of spin relaxation and are shown to fulfil the Overhauser theory.

A high saturation factor in Overhauser DNP with nitroxide derivatives: the role of (14)N nuclear spin relaxation.
Overhauser DNP enhancements of toluene were measured at a magnetic field of 0.35 Tesla in a series of chemically functionalized nitroxide radicals. We observe that the enhancements increase systematically with polarizer size and rotational correlation time. Examination of the saturation factor of (14)N nitroxides by pulsed ELDOR spectroscopy led to a quantitative interpretation of the enhanceme...
متن کاملOverhauser DNP with 15N labelled Frémy's salt at 0.35 Tesla.
The effectiveness of dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) as a tool to enhance the sensitivity of liquid state NMR critically depends on the choice of the optimal polarizer molecule. In this study the performance of (15)N labelled Frémy's salt as a polarizing agent in Overhauser DNP is investigated in detail at X-band (0.35 T, 9.7 GHz EPR, 15 MHz (1)H NMR) and compared to that of TEMPONE-D,(15)N ...
متن کاملHigh DNP efficiency of TEMPONE radicals in liquid toluene at low concentrations.
We show that at low concentrations (≤5 mM) TEMPONE radicals in liquid toluene exhibit higher DNP efficiency than in water. In spite of reduced coupling factors, the improved DNP performance in toluene results from favourable saturation and leakage factors, as determined by pulse electron-electron double resonance (ELDOR) and NMR relaxation, respectively. The extracted coupling factors at 0.35 T...

We have performed liquid state ("Overhauser") Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) experiments at high magnetic field (9.2 T, corresponding to 260 GHz EPR and 400 MHz (1)H-NMR resonance frequency) on aqueous solutions of (14)N-TEMPOL nitroxide radicals. Integrated signal enhancements exceeding -80 were observed for the water protons at microwave superheated temperatures (160 °C) and still -14 at ...
متن کاملComparison of Overhauser DNP at 0.34 and 3.4 T with Frémy’s Salt
Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is investigated in the liquid state using a model system of Frémy's salt dissolved in water. Nuclear magnetic resonance signal enhancements at 0.34 and 3.4 T of the bulk water protons are recorded as a function of the irradiation time and the polarizer concentration. The build-up rates are consistent with the T(1n) of the observed water protons at room tempera...
