Effects of biradical deuteration on the performance of DNP: towards better performing polarizing agents

From The DNP-NMR Blog:

Effects of biradical deuteration on the performance of DNP: towards better performing polarizing agents

Perras, F.A., et al., Effects of biradical deuteration on the performance of DNP: towards better performing polarizing agents. Phys Chem Chem Phys, 2016. 18(1): p. 65-9.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26619055

We study the effects of the deuteration of biradical polarizing agents on the efficiency of dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) via the cross-effect. To this end, we synthesized a series of bTbK and TOTAPol biradicals with systematically increased deuterium substitution. The deuteration increases the radicals' relaxation time, thus contributing to a higher saturation factor and larger DNP enhancement, and reduces the pool of protons within the so-called spin diffusion barrier. Notably, we report that full or partial deuteration leads to improved DNP enhancement factors in standard samples, but also slows down the build-up of hyperpolarization. Improvements in DNP enhancements factors of up to 70% and time savings of up to 38% are obtained upon full deuteration. It is foreseen that this approach may be applied to other DNP polarizing agents thus enabling further sensitivity improvements.

Fractional deuteration applied to biomolecular solid-state NMR spectroscopy Fractional deuteration applied to biomolecular solid-state NMR spectroscopy Abstract Solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance can provide detailed insight into structural and dynamical aspects of complex biomolecules. With increasing molecular size, advanced approaches for spectral simplification and the detection of medium to long-range contacts become of critical relevance. We have analyzed the protonation pattern of a membrane-embedded ion channel that was obtained from bacterial expression using protonated precursors and D2O medium. We find an overall reduction of 50% in protein...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	11-24-2011 12:25 AM
