A magnetic tunnel to shelter hyperpolarized fluids

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Pascal Miéville, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Roger Mottier

To shield solutions carrying hyperpolarized nuclear magnetization from rapid relaxation during transfer through low fields, the transfer duct can be threaded through an array of permanent magnets. The advantages are illustrated for solutions containing hyp ...

Photo-transformation of pedogenic humic acid and consequences for Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) speciation and bioavailability to green microalga

Pascal Miéville

Humic substances (HS) play key role in toxic metal binding and protecting aquatic microorganisms from metal-induced stress. Any environmental changes that could alter HS concentration and reactivity can be expected to modify metal complexation and thus aff ...

Dynamic aggregation of the mid-sized gadolinium complex {Ph-4[Gd(DTTA)(H2O)(2)](-)(3)}

Lothar Helm, Hugues Jaccard, Pascal Miéville

A compound binding three Gd3+ ions, {Ph-4Gd(DTTA)(H2O)(2) (3)} (where H(5)DTTA is diethylenetriaminetetraacetic acid), has been synthesized around a hydrophobic center made up of four phenyl rings. In aqueous solution the molecules start to self-aggre ...

Enantioselective Synthesis of Polycyclic Carbocycles via an Alkynylation-Allylation-Cyclization Strategy

Jérôme Waser, Pascal Miéville, Maria Victoria Vita

A new general three-stage strategy to access polycyclic ring systems bearing all-carbon quaternary centers with high enantioselectivity is reported. The required starting materials were readily accessed in racemic form through the alpha-alkynylation of ket ...

Surface Functionalisation of Alumina Ceramic Foams with Organic Ligands

Sandrine Gerber, Vincent Laporte, Pascal Miéville, Françoise Borcard, Marc Anthony Caporini

Different anchoring groups have been studied with the aim of covalently binding organic linkers to the surface of alumina ceramic foams. The results suggested that a higher degree of functionalisation was achieved with a pyrogallol derivative - as compared ...

Dynamic Nuclear Polarization and Other Magnetic Ideas at EPFL

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Pascal Miéville, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Diego Carnevale, Simone Ulzega, Marc Anthony Caporini, Nicola Salvi, Daniele Mammoli

Although nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) can provide a wealth of information, it often suffers from a lack of sensitivity. Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) provides a way to increase the polarization and hence the signal intensities in NMR spectra by tr ...

Dynamic nuclear polarization of quadrupolar nuclei using cross polarization from protons: surface-enhanced aluminium-27 NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Pascal Miéville, Aaron James Rossini, Diego Carnevale, Moreno Lelli, Marc Anthony Caporini, David Benjamin Roger Antoine Gajan

The surface of gamma-alumina nanoparticles can be characterized by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) surface-enhanced NMR of Al-27. DNP is combined with cross-polarization and MQ-MAS to determine local symmetries of Al-27 sites at the surface. ...

Synthesis, complexation and NMR relaxation properties of Gd3+ complexes of Mes(DO3A)3

Lothar Helm, Hugues Jaccard, Pascal Miéville

Medium sized molecules endowed with multiple Gd3+ complexes are efficient high magnetic field MRI contrast agents. The novel ligand Mes(DO3A)3, presenting three DO3A (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N′,N′′-triacetatic acid) units grafted on the methyl pos ...

Effect of Humic Substance Photoalteration on Lead Bioavailability to Freshwater Microalgae

Pascal Miéville, Julian Spierings

The present study provides results on the influence of humic substance (HS) photoalteration on lead availability to the freshwater microalga Chlorella kesslerii. The evolution of the free lead-ion concentrations measured by the ion exchange technique [Pb]( ...

Chemical Developments in DNP-NMR

Pascal Miéville

The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is an extraordinary tool to understand molecular structures. Its main limitation resides in its relatively low sensitivity when compared with other physico-chemical methods such as Mass Spectrometry (MS) or Optical Spec ...
