We present a simple framework for determining the parameters for efficient adiabatic pulses in solids with very large shift anisotropies under very fast MAS. We introduce the notion of the effective adiabatic quality factor to describe the spin dynamics. W ...
Numerical simulations and experiments are used to show that the spin dynamics of the dipolar-coupled networks in solids is often strongly dependent on crystallite orientation. In particular, different rates of dephasing of the magnetisation mean that NMR s ...
The measurement of scalar (J) couplings by solid-state NMR is a field of great interest, since this interaction is a rich source of local structural information, complementary to dipolar and chemical shift interactions. Here, we first demonstrate that J-co ...
NMR of paramagnetic systems in solution is hampered by relaxation enhancement (PRE). Here we present a method to access paramagnetic line widths in microcrystalline samples under magic angle spinning. We demonstrate that a CPMG technique may advantageously ...
The triple-chlorido-bridged heterodimetallic dinuclear complex [(dibenzo-18-crown-6)K(m-Cl)3Ru(h6-p-cymene)] contg. an (h6-arene)RuII fragment and a Group 1 metal crown ether fragment was synthesized and characterized by spectroscopy and X-ray crystallog. ...
The effect of nitrogen-15 proton-driven spin diffusion on quantitative N-15 T-1 measurements in solid proteins is investigated, and the impact on the measurement of dynamic parameters is assessed. A simple model of exchange between neighboring nitrogens is ...
Images directly visualizing the spatial spin-diffusion process are reported. The measurements were performed using a magnetic resonance force microscope. The field gradient associated with the forcedetection experiment is large enough to affect the spin dy ...
The influence of the N-15 CSA on N-15 longitudinal relaxation is investigated for an amide group in solid proteins in powder form under MAS. This contribution is determined to be typically 20-33%, of the overall longitudinal relaxation rate, at 11.74 and 1 ...
Self-diffusion NMR spectroscopy and relaxometry have been employed to study fragrance encapsulation in water-soluble, amphiphilic star block copolymers. Diffusion coefficients of four different fragrance molecules in the free form and in the presence of th ...
Scalar (J) couplings in solid-state NMR spectroscopy are sensitive to covalent through-bond interactions that make them informative structural probes for a wide range of complex materials. Until now, however, they have been generally unsuitable for use in ...
