Proton NMR relaxation studies on several nitroxyl-water systems

Proton spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation times of several nitroxyl radicals in aqueous solutions have been measured between 10 kHz and 90 MHz. There are two regions where the relaxation times of the solvent water protons are frequency dependent. It is possible to extract from these experimental data structural and dynamical parameters such as the number of solvated water protons and/or their mean lifetime in the first hydration sphere around the paramagnetic center. These results were found to differ considerably from corresponding data reported in the literature which have been deduced mainly from chemical shift measurements.

29Si spin-lattice NMR relaxation in microporous silica-based materials with high Mn2+ concentrations

The 29Si T1 time measurements have been performed under magic angle spinning for supermicroporous Si/Mn materials 1-6 containing Mn2+ in concentrations of 0 (1), 1.2 (2), 2.5 (3), 3.8 (4), 15 (5) and 19.8 wt% (6). It has been found that the central lines, corresponding to isotropic chemical shifts, and their sidebands relax differently in samples 2-4 with relatively small Mn2+ contents. Because the relaxation curves for 1-6 are nonexponential and identical for 6 at spinning rates of 5, 10 and 12 kHz, dipolar relaxation via the paramagnetic centers is dominant. The relaxation data have been interpreted as a function of Mn2+ concentrations in terms of incorporation of the Mn2+ ions into the silica lattice when their concentration is small (相似文献   

Molecular dynamics of hydrophilic poly(propylene imine) dendrimers in aqueous solutions by 1H NMR relaxation

The local dynamics of three poly(propylene imine) dendrimers with hydrophilic triethylenoxy methyl ether terminal groups were studied in D₂O by the measurement of the ¹H NMR relaxation times, which were treated with the Lipari–Szabo model‐free approach. The results showed that the overall mobility increased with temperature and decreased with increasing dendrimer size. An Arrhenius trend was observed for both overall and local motions. The activation energy of overall tumbling increased from 11.3 to 17.5 kJ/mol with the dendrimer size. The local mobility decreased from the outer part to the inner part of the dendrimer and with the dendrimer size. The spatial restriction of local motions decreased with increasing temperature up to 55 °C and remained constant above 55 °C. Local motions were more restricted when the dendrimer size increased. The results showed that the hydrophilic end groups of the dendrimers were located preferentially at the periphery of the molecules and were extended in the aqueous environment. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Local chain motions of poly(β-hydroxyoctanoate) in the bulk. 13C NMR relaxation study

Variable-temperature ¹³C NMR spin-lattice relaxation times (T₁) and Nuclear Overhauser Enhancements (NOE) at two magnetic fields have been used to study the dynamics of the amorphous part of a semicrystalline sample (33% of crystallinity) of poly(β-hydroxyoctanoate) (PHO). The interpretation of the relaxation data of the backbone carbons was made by employing a number of motional models. Among these, the DLM model offered the best interpretation of the relaxation data in terms of conformational transitions and librational motions of the backbone C? H vectors, and proved to be superior to unimodal distribution functions. The interpretation of temperature- and frequency-dependent T₁ and NOE data of the carbon nuclei in the n-pentyl side chain was made by employing a newly developed composite spectral density function for multiple internal C? C bond rotations of restricted amplitude and chain segmental motion. The temperature dependence of the linewidths of the various protonated carbon resonances of PHO has been discussed in terms of the semicrystalline character of this polymer. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthesis and Structure of a New Dimanganese Complex [Mn2(μ-OAc)2(phen)4](ClO4)2

A dinuclear manganese(II) complex, [Mn2(μ-Oac)2(phen)4](ClO4)2 1 (phen = phenanthroline), has been prepared by the reaction of Mn(Oac)2·4H2O, phen, tartaric acid and NaClO4·H2O in MeOH/H2O solution. The crystal structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystal is of monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 9.6052(4), b = 14.2353(7), c = 18.8893(8)(A),β= 96.584(1)°, C52H38Cl2Mn2N8O12, Mr = 1147.68, V = 2565.8(2) (A)3, Dc = 1.486 g/cm3, F(000) = 1172, μ = 0.668 cm-1 and Z = 2. The final refinement gave R = 0.0605 and wR = 0.1619 for 3203 reflections with I > 2σ(I). The complex contains a dinuclear [Mn2(μ-Oac)2(phen)4]]2+ cation located at a centre of symmetry with two syn-anti acetate bridges between the Mn atoms. Each Mn atom is coordinated by four N atoms from two chelating phen ligands and two O atoms from a pair of bridging acetate groups to furnish a distorted octahedral geometry. Two ClO4 anions exist around the cation [Mn2(μ-Oac)2(phen)4]2+as counter ions.

Unexpected proton spin‐lattice relaxation in the solutions of polyolefin and tetrachloroethane

‘Unexpected’ proton spin‐lattice relaxation (T₁) times are reported for the solutions of poly(ethylene‐co‐1‐octene) and tetrachloroethane‐d₂. For the residual protons of the deuterated solvent and the methyl and vinyl protons at the polymer chain ends, their T₁ relaxation times vary significantly with both the polymer concentration and molecular weight over a wide range. The T₁s also decrease with increasing temperature at relative high temperatures. Such behaviors are in contrast to most reported polymer solutions in which the T₁ has nearly no concentration or molecular weight dependence in the dilute and semi‐dilute regime, and normal dependence on temperature. Further investigation revealed that the paramagnetic oxygen effect did shorten the measured proton T₁s, but cannot account for the unexpected T₁ dependences. Spin rotation is proposed to provide a reasonable explanation. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of {[Mn(phen)_2(OAc)(H_2O)]ClO_4}_2H_2O

1 INTRODUCTION Chemistry of manganese cluster has become an attractive research field because of the involvement of manganese in several biological redox-active sys- tems[1,2], especially in the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem Ⅱ (PSⅡ) in green plants[3]. It was thought that the coordination environment of Mn in OEC contains O and N donors, and the bind- ing of aqua to the Mn site may be important to the oxidation of aqua for the evolution of dioxygen[4, 5].

The behavior of ion pairs in high frequency electric fields exemplified by acetonitrile solutions of Bu4NBr

Permittivity data from 0.9 to 40 GHz for acetonitrile and 0.05 to 1.4 molar acetonitrile solutions of Bu₄NBr at 25°C are used to exemplify the behavior of ion pairs in high frequency electric fields. Measurements were excuted by the method of travelling waves with equipment known to produce data of high precision. Data analysis of the acetonitrile spectrum shows a single relaxation process at relaxation time of 3.5 ps for the solvent reorientation; the spectra of the salt solutions reveal two relaxation processes with relaxation times increasing from 3.5 to 6.8 ps for the solvent and decreasing from 120 to 70 ps for the ion pair [Bu₄NBr]^o at increasing salt concentration. The association constant of Bu₄NBr in acetonitrile determined by permittivity measurements agrees well with that from conductance measurements. The concentration-dependence of the ion-pair relaxation times reveals the rate constants of ion-pair formation and decomposition.Presented at the Symposium on Electrochemistry and Spectroscopy of Solutions, Honoring Johannes Coetzee, University of Pittsburgh, November 30, 1989.     

Layered metal(IV) phosphonate materials: Solid‐state 1H, 13C, 31P NMR spectra and NMR relaxation

Multinuclear solid‐state NMR and powder X‐ray diffraction data collected for phosphonate materials Zr(O₃PC₆H₄PO₃) · 3.6H₂O and Sn(O₃PC₆H₄PO₃)_0.85(O₃POH)_0.30 · 3.09H₂O have resulted in the layered structure, where the phosphonic acids cross‐link the layers. The main structural motif (the 111 connectivity in the PO₃ group) has been established by determination of chemical shift anisotropy parameters for phosphorus nuclei in the phosphonate groups. An analysis of the variable‐temperature ³¹P T₁ measurements and the shapes of the phosphorus resonances in the ³¹P static NMR spectra have resulted in the dipolar mechanism of the phosphorus spin‐lattice relaxation, where the rotating phenylene rings reorient dipolar vectors P^…H as a driving force of the relaxation process. It has been found that water protons do not affect the ³¹P T₁ times. The activation energy of the phenylene rotation in both compounds has been determined as low as 12.5 kJ/mol. The interpretation of the phosphorus relaxation data has been independently confirmed by the measurements of ¹H T₁ times for protons of the phenylene rings.     

1H and 13C NMR studies of 2-functionalized 5-(methylsulfonyl)-1-phenyl-1H-indoles

The 1H and 13C NMR resonances of thirty 2-functionalized 5-(methylsulfonyl)-1-phenyl-1H-indoles were assigned completely and unequivocally using the concerted application of one- and two-dimensional experiments (DEPT, gs-HMQC and gs-HMBC). Finally, the influence of the 2-substituent of 5-(methylsufonyl)-1-phenyl-1H-indoles on the carbon atoms of the indole moiety was estimated.     

Magic-angle-spinning-induced local ordering in polymer electrolytes and its effects on solid-state diffusion and relaxation NMR measurements

Magic-angle-spinning (MAS) enhances sensitivity and resolution in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements. MAS is obtained by aerodynamic levitation and drive of a rotor, which results in large centrifugal forces that may affect the physical state of soft materials, such as polymers, and subsequent solid-state NMR measurements. Here, we investigate the effects of MAS on the solid-state NMR measurements of a polymer electrolyte for lithium-ion battery applications, poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) doped with the lithium salt LiTFSI. We show that MAS induces local chain ordering, which manifests itself as characteristic lineshapes with doublet-like splittings in subsequent solid-state ¹ H, ⁷ Li, and ¹⁹ F static NMR spectra characterizing the PEO chains and solvated ions. MAS results in distributions of stresses and hence local chain orientations within the rotor, yielding distributions in the local magnetic susceptibility tensor that give rise to the observed NMR anisotropy and lineshapes. The effects of MAS were investigated on solid-state ⁷ Li and ¹⁹ F pulsed-field-gradient (PFG) diffusion and ⁷Li longitudinal relaxation NMR measurements. Activation energies for ion diffusion were affected modestly by MAS. ⁷Li longitudinal relaxation rates, which are sensitive to lithium-ion dynamics in the nanosecond regime, were essentially unchanged by MAS. We recommend that NMR researchers studying soft polymeric materials use only the spin rates necessary to achieve the desired enhancements in sensitivity and resolution, as well as acquire static NMR spectra after MAS experiments to reveal any signs of stress-induced local ordering.     

1H NMR study of the phase behavior of aqueous eutectic solutions using the inverse Laplace transform analysis of T2 relaxation

High‐field ¹H NMR T₂ relaxation studies were used to characterize the changes in the physical phases of water, NaCl, and dextrose solutions over a temperature range of ?65 to 15 °C. The data were analyzed with the inverse Laplace transform and with a linear fit to the logarithm of the time domain signal. Two liquid phases were detected for the NaCl and dextrose solutions at lower temperatures and assigned to low and high concentrated solution domains. The high concentrated solution domain was found to be present between ?30 and ?5 °C in the NaCl solution and between ?55 and ?5 °C in the dextrose solution.

Orientations of the principal components of electric field gradients and internal motions in dihydrogen ligands from the 2H T1 NMR relaxation data in solution

The deuterium spin-lattice relaxation times in (D2) ligands of W, Ru and Os complexes are reviewed and analyzed in terms of the fast internal (D2) motions: free rotation, librations and 180 degrees jumps. The analysis was performed using quadrupolar coupling constant (DQCC) parameters taken from the solid-state 2H NMR spectra and density function theory calculations. It is shown that the calculated DQCC values can be corrected for further use in interpretations of deuterium relaxation times for Ru and Os dihydrogen complexes. The resulting data led to a criterion for using the relaxation data to distinguish fast-spinning dihydrogen ligands. It is shown that the principal components of electric field gradient tensors at D in the dihydrogen ligands are oriented closer to M-D directions.

Apparent molar heat capacities and volumes of aqueous electrolytes at 25°C: Cd(ClO4)2, Ca(ClO4)2, Co(ClO4)2, Mn(ClO4)2, Ni(ClO4)2, and Zn(ClO4)2

We have used a flow calorimeter and a flow densimeter for measurements leading to apparent molar heat capacities and apparent molar volumes of aqueous solutions of Cd(ClO₄)₂, Ca(ClO₄)₂, Co(ClO₄)₂, Mn(ClO₄)₂, Ni(ClO₄)₂, and Zn(ClO₄)₂. The resulting apparent molar quantities have been extrapolated to infinite dilution to obtain the corresponding standardstate apparent and partial molar heat capacities and volumes. These latter values have been used for calculation of conventional ionic heat capacities and volumes.
