This study deals with a spin system constituted of three nonequivalent protons, two of them originating from para-hydrogen (p-H(2)) after a hydrogenation reaction carried out in the earth magnetic field. It is shown that three singlet states are created provided indirect (J) couplings exist between the three spins, implying hyperpolarization transfer toward the third spin. Upon insertion of the sample in the NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) high field magnet, the following events occur: (i) the longitudinal two-spin orders which are parts of the singlet states survive; (ii) the other two terms (of these singlet states) tend to be destroyed by magnetic field gradients but at the same time are partly converted into differences of longitudinal polarizations. Nuclear spin relaxation is studied by appropriate NMR measurements when evolution takes place in the high field magnet or in the earth field. In the former case, relaxation is classical although complicated by numerous relaxation rates associated with both longitudinal two-spin orders and longitudinal polarizations. In the latter case, an equilibration between the singlet states first occur, their disappearance being thereafter driven by relaxation rates which remain very small because of the absence of any dipolar contribution. Thus, even in the case of a three-spin system, long-lived states exist; this unexpected property could be very useful for many applications. 相似文献

Nuclear singlet states may display lifetimes that are an order of magnitude greater than conventional relaxation times. Existing methods for accessing these long-lived states require a resolved chemical shift difference between the nuclei involved. Here, we demonstrate a new method for accessing singlet states that works even when the nuclei are almost magnetically equivalent, such that the chemical shift difference is unresolved. The method involves trains of 180° pulses that are synchronized with the spin-spin coupling between the nuclei. We demonstrate experiments on the terminal glycine resonances of the tripeptide alanylglycylglycine (AGG) in aqueous solution, showing that the nuclear singlet order of this system is long-lived even when no resonant locking field is applied. Variation of the pulse sequence parameters allows the estimation of small chemical shift differences that are normally obscured by larger J-couplings. 相似文献

Nuclear singlet states often display lifetimes that are much longer than conventional nuclear spin relaxation times. Here we investigate the effect of dissolved paramagnetic species on the singlet relaxation of proton pairs in solution. We find a linear correlation between the singlet relaxation rate constant T and the longitudinal relaxation rate constant T. The slope of the correlation depends on the nature of the paramagnetic relaxation agent, but typically, singlet states are between two to three times less sensitive to paramagnetic relaxation than conventional nuclear magnetization. These observations may be interpreted using a model of partially-correlated local fields acting on the nuclear sites. We explore the effect on singlet relaxation of adding a metal-ion-chelating agent to the solution. We also investigate the effect of ascorbate, which reacts with dissolved oxygen. 相似文献

The contribution of scalar coupling relaxation of the second kind on the relaxation behaviour of nuclear spin singlet states has been derived. The analytical equation found for the relaxation rate constant of singlet state has been compared to the equation for the relaxation of longitudinal magnetization in order to find the conditions for which the singlet state remains long-lived even in the presence of this scalar relaxation mechanism. These results are relevant when the singlet state is formed in molecules with more than two interacting spins. 相似文献

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a very powerful tool in physics, chemistry, and life sciences, although limited by low sensitivity. This problem can be overcome by hyperpolarization techniques dramatically enhancing the NMR signal. However, this approach is restricted to relatively short time scales depending on the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time T(1) in the range of seconds. This makes long-lived singlet states very useful as a way to extend the hyperpolarization lifetimes. Para-hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) is particularly suitable, because para-H(2) possesses singlet symmetry. Most PHIP experiments, however, are performed on asymmetric molecules, and the initial singlet state is directly converted to a NMR observable triplet state decaying with T(1), in the order of seconds. We demonstrate that in symmetric molecules, a long-lived singlet state created by PHIP can be stored for several minutes on protons in high magnetic fields. Subsequently, it is converted into observable high nonthermal magnetization by controlled singlet-triplet conversion via level anticrossing. 相似文献

The populations of long-lived spin states, in particular, populations of singlet states that are comprised of antisymmetric combinations of product states, |alpha(I)beta(S)> - |beta(I)alpha(S)>, are characterized by very long lifetimes because the dipole-dipole interaction between the two "active" spins I and S that are involved in such states is inoperative as a relaxation mechanism. The relaxation rate constants of long-lived (singlet) states are therefore determined by the chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) of the active spins and by dipole-dipole interactions with passive spins. For a pair of coupled spins, the singlet-state relaxation rate constants strongly depend on the magnitudes and orientations of the CSA tensors. The relaxation properties of long-lived states therefore reveal new information about molecular symmetry and structure and about spectral density functions that characterize the dynamic behavior. 相似文献

We consider a general method of calculating spin-exchange transition probabilities in intermediate magnetic fields comparable to the hyperfine interaction constant for multilevel electronic spin systems. The method is illustrated in the framework of the Kivelson sudden collision model. We calculate the effect of spin exchange on the nuclear dynamical polarization in solutions of nitrogensubstituted nitroxyl radials (a four-level spin system) in the presence of two electronic relaxation mechanisms: spin-rotation and exchange interactions. It is shown that with an increase in the radical concentration (increase in the number of spin-exchange collisions) the dynamical polarization effect increases, and the rate of increase is larger when the magnitude of the constant magnetic field decreases. It is concluded that the solution of the problem of spin exchange in the theory of nuclear dynamical polarization widens the possibilities of the experimental use of the method.Urals Polytechnic Institute, Sverdlovsk.

Recently, Levitt and co-workers demonstrated that conserving the population of long-lasting nuclear singlet states in weak magnetic fields can lead to a preservation of nuclear spin information over times substantially longer than governed by the (high-field) spin-lattice relaxation time T1. Potential benefits of the prolonged spin information for magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy were pointed out, particularly when combined with the parahydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) methodology. In this contribution, we demonstrate that an increase of the effective relaxation time by a factor up to three is achieved experimentally, when molecules hyperpolarized by PHIP are kept in a weak magnetic field instead of the strong field of a typical NMR magnet. This increased lifetime of spin information makes the known PHIP phenomena more compatible with the time scales of biological processes and, thus, more attractive for future investigations. 相似文献

An alternative method of preparing the pseudo-pure state of a spin system for quantum computation in liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is demonstrated experimentally. Applying specific line-selective pulses with appropriately chosen flipping angles simultaneously and then a field gradient pulse we acquire straightforwardly all pseudo-pure states for two qubits in a single experiment quite efficiently. The signal intensity from the pseudo-pure state prepared in this way is the same as that of temporal averaging. As an example of an application, a highly structured search algorithm – Hogg's algorithm – is also performed on the pseudo-pure state |0 0 prepared by the method. 相似文献

The basic principles of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) are presented in an elementary form using classical and elementary quantum mechanics and the experimental technique 1s explained. The motion of the magnetization by r.f. pulses, free induction decay and spectrum, transverse and longitudinal relaxation, local field and spin echo are described and the effects of molecular motion are discussed. The concepts of spin temperature and spin diffusion are presented and the advantage of using quadrupole nuclei is stressed. Finally, the specific problems of NMR in interface studies are considered and a typical example is given. 相似文献

Of the various ways in which nuclear spin systems can relax to their ground states, the processes involving an interference between different relaxation mechanisms, such as dipole-dipole coupling and chemical shift anisotropy, have become of great interest lately. The authors show here that the interference between the quadrupolar coupling and the paramagnetic interaction (cross-correlated relaxation) gives rise to nuclear spin transitions that would remain forbidden otherwise. In addition, frequency shifts arise. These would be reminiscent of residual anisotropic interactions when there are none. While interesting from a fundamental point of view, these processes may become relevant in magnetic resonance imaging experiments which involve quadrupolar spins, such as (23)Na, in the presence of contrast agents. Geometrical constraints in paramagnetic molecule structures may likewise be derived from these interference effects. 相似文献

Bimodal molecular probes combining nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and fluorescence have been widely studied in basic science, as well as clinical research. The investigation of spin phenomena holds promise to broaden the scope of available probes allowing deeper insights into physiological processes. Herein, a class of molecules with a bimodal character with respect to fluorescence and nuclear spin singlet states is introduced. Singlet states are NMR silent but can be probed indirectly. Symmetric, perdeuterated molecules, in which the singlet states can be populated by vanishingly small electron-mediated couplings (below 1 Hz) are reported. The lifetimes of these states are an order of magnitude longer than the longitudinal relaxation times and up to four minutes at 7 T. Moreover, these molecules show either aggregation induced emission (AIE) or aggregation caused quenching (ACQ) with respect to their fluorescence. In the latter case, the existence of excited dimers, which are proposed to use in a switchable manner in combination with the quenching of nuclear spin singlet states, is observed 相似文献

The goal of dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is to enhance NMR signals by transferring electron spin polarization to the nuclei. Although mechanisms such as the solid effect and thermal mixing can be used for DNP in the solid state, currently, the only practical mechanism in solutions is the Overhauser effect (OE), which usually arises due to dipolar relaxation between electrons and the nuclei. At magnetic fields greater than approximately 1 T, dipolar relaxation does not result in a useful enhancement and therefore the conventional wisdom is that DNP should not work in solutions at high magnetic fields. However, scalar relaxation due to time-dependent scalar couplings has a different magnetic field dependence and can lead to substantial OE enhancements. At room temperature and at a magnetic field of 5 T (211 MHz for protons, 140 GHz for electrons), we have observed that scalar relaxation between electrons and nuclei results in NMR signal enhancements of 180, 42, -36, and 8, for 31P, 13C, 15N, and 19F, respectively. 相似文献

The behaviour in a magnetic field of the spin polarisation of triplet excitons in biphenyl-tetracyanobenzene is accounted for by the generation of the triplet state into a superposition of spin states. The molecular conformation in the excited singlet state is discussed. 相似文献

Intracellular enzymatic reactions involving ion-radical states are shown to act as a universal mechanism of magnetically sensitive living organisms. Weak magnetic fields can affect the rate of intracellular enzymatic reactions. The main magnetically sensitive stage is the singlet-triplet conversion of ion-radical pairs in the active sites of enzymes induced by Zeeman and hyperfine interactions of electron and nuclear spins. The participation of a nuclear spin in the ion-radical process results in a strong dependence of the enzymatic reaction rate in weak magnetic fields comparable with the magnetic field of the Earth. 相似文献

Molecular vibration and rotation play a significant role in the intramolecular photoexcitation dynamics of the so-called intermediate-case molecule, and the fluorescence intensity, decay and polarization of s-triazine vapor are shown to depend on the excited rovibronic level of the S1 state. Fluorescence characteristics are interpreted by assuming three zero-order states: (1) a zero-order singlet state that carries the absorption intensity and emits fluorescence with sharp structure; (2) zero-order singlet states that do not carry the absorption intensity but emit broad fluorescence; and (3) zero-order triplet states. The interaction among these states depends not only on the vibrational level but also on the rotational level excited. It is suggested that the number of triplet states coupled to the singlet state increases with increasing excess vibrational energy. It is also suggested that K-scrambling occurs both in the triplet manifold following intersystem crossing (ISC) and in the singlet manifold following intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR). The fluorescence intensity and decay of s-triazine vapor are significantly influenced by a magnetic field, and the field effects are interpreted in terms of the spin decoupling in the triplet manifold following ISC; the role of external magnetic fields is to mix the spin sublevels of different rovibronic levels coupled to the excited singlet state. Magnetic depolarization of fluorescence also occurs because of the efficient interaction between the excited singlet state and the triplet state. 相似文献

Nuclear spin order may be stored in a liquid for a much longer time than the longitudinal relaxation time T1, by using rf fields to isolate states of different symmetry. The method is demonstrated on a sample containing AX spin systems. 相似文献

The contact recombination from both singlet and triplet states of a radical pair is studied assuming that the spin conversion is carried out by the fast transversal relaxation and Delta g mechanism. The alternative HFI mechanism is neglected as being much weaker in rather large magnetic fields. The magnetic-field-dependent quantum yields of the singlet and triplet recombination products, as well as of the free radical production, are calculated for any initial spin state and arbitrary separation of radicals in a pair. The magnetic field effect is traced and its diffusional (viscosity) dependence is specified. 相似文献

The nuclear spin conversion rate depends on the collisions, which break the coherence created by magnetic intramolecular interactions between pairs of quasi degenerate levels belonging to the different spin isomers. The collisions act similarly to break the coherence created by a radiation field between two levels inducing pressure broadening of molecular transitions. Collisional relaxation rates have been extensively studied in this last situation using semi-classical approach and rectilign trajectory for collisional path.Taking advantage of the analogy, the present paper shows that calculations can be efficiently adapted for the collisional relaxation terms present in the ‘quantum relaxation’ model of nuclear spin conversion.For 13CH3F, numerous experimental measurements of spin conversion rates in the presence of an electric field have allowed to derive directly relaxation rates. Our calculation appears to agree satisfactorily with these experimental values. For 12CH3F, calculated relaxations rates are also given for the pairs involved in nuclear spin conversion. 相似文献

We report the results of a detailed study of surface relaxation of 199Hg nuclear spins in paraffin coated cells. From measurements of the magnetic field and temperature dependence of the spin relaxation rates we determine the correlation time for magnetic fluctuations and the surface adsorption energy. The data indicate that surface relaxation is caused by dipolar coupling to paramagnetic sites on the surface. We also observe changes in the spin relaxation rate caused by ultraviolet radiation resonant with the 254 nm transition in Hg. 相似文献
