Three-Dimensional Atomic-Level Structure of an Amorphous Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist

David Lyndon Emsley, Daria Torodii, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Manuel Cordova

Amorphous formulations are increasingly used in the pharmaceutical industry due to their increased solubility, but their structural characterization at atomic-level resolution remains extremely challenging. Here, we characterize the complete atomic-level s ...

Atomic-level structure of the amorphous drug atuliflapon via NMR crystallography

David Lyndon Emsley, Daria Torodii, Pierrick Berruyer, Albert Hofstetter, Manuel Cordova, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Bruno Simões de Almeida, Martins Balodis

We determine the complete atomic-level structure of the amorphous form of the drug atuliflapon, a 5-lipooxygenase activating protein (FLAP) inhibitor, via chemical-shift-driven NMR crystallography. The ensemble of preferred structures allows us to identify ...

Observation of 1H-1H J-couplings in fast magic-angle-spinning solid-state NMR spectroscopy

David Lyndon Emsley, Daria Torodii

While 1H-1H J-couplings are the cornerstone of all spectral assignment methods in solution-state NMR, they are yet to be observed in solids. Here we observe 1H-1H J-couplings in plastic crystals of (1S)-(−)-camphor in solid-state NMR at magic angle spinnin ...

Crystal structure validation of verinurad via proton-detected ultra-fast MAS NMR and machine learning

David Lyndon Emsley, Daria Torodii, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Manuel Cordova

The recent development of ultra-fast magic-angle spinning (MAS) (>100 kHz) provides new opportunities for structural characterization in solids. Here, we use NMR crystallography to validate the structure of verinurad, a microcrystalline active pharmaceutic ...

Barriers to resolution in 1H NMR of rotating solids

David Lyndon Emsley, Daria Torodii, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Bruno Simões de Almeida

The role of 1H solid-state NMR in structure elucidation of solids is becoming more preponderant, particularly as faster magic-angle spinning rates (MAS) become available which improve 1H detected assignment strategies. However, current 1H spectral resoluti ...

Two-dimensional Pure Isotropic Proton Solid State NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Daria Torodii, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Manuel Cordova, Bruno Simões de Almeida

One key bottleneck of solid-state NMR spectroscopy is that H-1 NMR spectra of organic solids are often very broad due to the presence of a strong network of dipolar couplings. We have recently suggested a new approach to tackle this problem. More specifica ...

Pure Isotropic Proton NMR Spectra in Solids using Deep Learning

David Lyndon Emsley, Daria Torodii, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Manuel Cordova, Bruno Simões de Almeida

The resolution of proton solid-state NMR spectra is usually limited by broadening arising from dipolar interactions between spins. Magic-angle spinning alleviates this broadening by inducing coherent averaging. However, even the highest spinning rates expe ...

Pure Isotropic Proton Solid State NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Daria Torodii, Bruno Simões de Almeida

Resolution in proton solid state magic angle sample spinning (MAS) NMR is limited by the intrinsically imperfect nature of coherent averaging induced by either MAS or multiple pulse sequence methods. Here, we suggest that instead of optimizing and perfecti ...
