We compare in this communication several heteronuclear dipolar decoupling sequences in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance experiments under a magic-angle spinning frequency of 60 kHz. The decoupling radiofrequency field amplitudes considered are 190 and 10 kHz. No substantial difference was found among the sequences considered here in performance barring the difference in the optimisation protocol of the various schemes, an aspect that favours the use of swept-frequency two pulse phase modulation (SW(f)-TPPM). 相似文献

The performance of two recently developed heteronuclear decoupling schemes designed to quench rotary resonance, phase-inverted supercycled sequence for attenuation of rotary resonance (PISSARRO) and high-phase two-pulse phase modulation (high-phase TPPM), are probed at high spinning frequencies. High-phase TPPM may be useful at the n=1 rotary resonance condition while PISSARRO permits efficient decoupling over a broad commonly used range of rf amplitudes, even at very high spinning frequencies. New insights into the response of spin systems to both decoupling schemes have been gained. High-phase TPPM is sensitive to the offsets of remote protons, their chemical shift anisotropies, and the relative orientations of the heteronuclear dipolar and proton chemical shift tensors. Since PISSARRO is virtually immune against such effects, the method is especially suited for very high magnetic fields. 相似文献

The design of variants of the swept-frequency two-pulse phase modulation sequence for heteronuclear dipolar decoupling in solid-state NMR is reported, their performance evaluated, and compared with other established sequences like TPPM and SPINAL. Simulations performed to probe the role of the homonuclear (1)H-(1)H bath show that the robustness of the decoupling schemes improves with the size of the bath. In addition, these simulations reveal that the homonuclear (1)H-(1)H bath also leads to broad baselines at high MAS rates. Results from a study of the SPINAL decoupling scheme indicate that optimisation of the starting phase and phase increment improves its performance and efficiency at high MAS rates. Additionally, experiments performed on a liquid crystal display the role of the initial phase in SPINAL-64 and sequences in the SW(f)-TPPM family. 相似文献

Achieving high spectral resolution is an important prerequisite for the application of solid-state NMR to biological molecules. Higher spectral resolution allows to resolve a larger number of resonances and leads to higher sensitivity. Among other things, heteronuclear spin decoupling is one of the important factors which determine the resolution of a spectrum. The process of heteronuclear spin decoupling under magic-angle sample spinning is analyzed in detail. Continuous-wave RF irradiation leads only in a zeroth-order approximation to a full decoupling of heteronuclear spin systems in solids under magic-angle spinning (MAS). In a higher-order approximation, a cross-term between the dipolar-coupling tensor and the chemical-shielding tensor is reintroduced, providing a scaled coupling term between the heteronuclear spins. In strongly coupled spin systems this second-order recoupling term is partially averaged out by the proton spin-diffusion process, which leads to exchange-type narrowing of the line by proton spin flips. This process can be described by a spin-diffusion type superoperator, allowing the efficient simulation of strongly coupled spin systems under heteronuclear spin decoupling. Low-power continuous-wave decoupling at fast MAS frequencies offers an alternative to high-power irradiation by reversing the order of the averaging processes. At fast MAS frequencies low-power continuous-wave decoupling leads to significantly narrower lines than high-power continuous-wave decoupling while at the same time reducing the power dissipated in the sample by several orders of magnitude. The best decoupling is achieved by multiple-pulse sequences at high RF fields and under fast MAS. Two such sequences, two-pulse phase-modulated decoupling (TPPM) and X-inverse-X decoupling (XiX), are discussed and their properties analyzed and compared. 相似文献

The intensity of the carbon signal in a CPMAS experiment has been measured for two CH and three CH(2) moieties in four test molecules under different phase-modulated proton decoupling conditions and as a function of the spinning rate. The proton decoupling schemes investigated were the golden standard TPPM and three of the GTn family. Aim of this analysis was to better describe experimentally the impact and limitations of phase-modulated decoupling. Sizeable differences in the response to decoupling were observed in otherwise chemically identical molecular fragments, such as the CHCH(2) found in tyrosine, phenyl-succinic acid or 9-Anthrylmethyl-malonate, probably due to differences in spin-diffusion rates. In keeping with known facts, the efficiency of the decoupling was observed to decrease with the MAS rate, but with somewhat different trends for the tested systems. 相似文献

This paper centers on a theoretical study of amplitude-modulated heteronuclear decoupling in solid-state NMR under magic-angle spinning (MAS). A spin system with a single isolated rare spin coupled to a large number of abundant spins is used in the analysis. The phase-alternating decoupling scheme (XiX decoupling) is analyzed using bimodal Floquet theory and the operator-based perturbation method developed by van Vleck. An effective Hamiltonian correct to second order is calculated for the spin system under XiX decoupling. The results of these calculations indicate that under XiX decoupling the main contribution to the residual line width comes from a cross-term between the heteronuclear and the homonuclear dipolar couplings. This is in contrast to continuous-wave decoupling, where the residual line width is dominated by the cross-term between the heteronuclear dipolar coupling and the chemical-shielding tensor of the irradiated spin. For high-power decoupling the method results in very good decoupling provided that certain unfavorable recoupling conditions, imposed by specific ratios of the amplitude modulation frequency and the MAS frequency, are avoided. For low-power decoupling, the method leads to acceptable decoupling when the pulse length corresponds to an integer multiple of a 2pi rotation and the rf-field amplitude is less than a quarter of the MAS frequency. The performance of the XiX scheme is analyzed over a range of values of the rf power, and numerical results that agree well with the most recent experimental observations are presented. 相似文献

The performance of a supercycled SW(f)-TPPM sequence for heteronuclear dipolar decoupling in solid-state NMR is analyzed here. The decoupling performance of this sequence with respect to experimental parameters, such as, the phase angle, proton offset and MAS frequency is studied. A comparison is made with two other commonly used decoupling schemes in solid-state NMR namely, SPINAL-64 and SW(f)-TPPM, on a sample of U-13C-labeled tyrosine. Our results show that supercycled SW(f)-TPPM performs better than the former sequences. Also, numerical spin dynamics studies are presented which support the experimentally observed efficiency in the decoupling. 相似文献

The paper describes the multiple rotating frame technique for designing modulated rf fields, that perform broadband heteronuclear decoupling in solution NMR spectroscopy. The decoupling method presented here is understood by performing a sequence of coordinate transformations, each of which demodulates a component of the rf field to a static component, that progressively averages the chemical shift and the dipolar interaction. We show that by increasing the number of modulations in the decoupling field, the ratio of dispersion in the chemical shift to the strength of the static component of the rf field is successively reduced in the progressive frames. The known decoupling methods like continuous wave decoupling, TPPM, etc., can be viewed as special cases of this method and their performance improves by adding additional modulations in the decoupling field. The technique is also expected to find use in design of broadband excitation, inversion and mixing sequences and broadband experiments in solid state NMR. 相似文献

We describe a simple yet highly effective optimization strategy for SPINAL-64 1H decoupling conditions for magic-angle spinning solid-state NMR. With adjustment of the phase angles in a coupled manner, the optimal conditions resulting from three parameter optimizations can be determined with adjustment of a single phase. Notably, echo T? relaxation times for 13C and 1?N show significant enhancement (up to 64%), relative to the previous described SPINAL-64 conditions, under the moderate 1H decoupling levels (60-100 kHz) and MAS rate (13.3 kHz) commonly employed for high-resolution SSNMR spectroscopy of proteins. Additionally, we also investigated the effect at higher spinning rate (33.3 kHz) and compared the results with other 1H decoupling schemes (TPPM, XiX), as well as SPINAL-64 with the originally reported optimal values. 相似文献

We present here a bimodal Floquet theoretical and experimental investigation of the direction of sweep in the swept-frequency two pulse phase modulated (SW(f)-TPPM) scheme used for heteronuclear dipolar decoupling in solid-state NMR. The efficiency of the decoupling turns out to be independent of the sweep direction. 相似文献

Many solid-state NMR experiments are sensitive to inhomogeneity in the radiofrequency field. We propose a method to restrict the sample volume, in magic angle spinning experiments, using a static magnetic field gradient and a selective pulse. The position of the gradient is calculated for our experimental configuration and we have simulated the effects of selective pulses to determine the excited volume. The resulting sequences are applied to a sample of sodium acetate using frequency-switched Lee–Goldburg proton–proton homonuclear dipolar decoupling. A gain of a factor of 2 on the carbon resolution is experimentally observed. 相似文献

We examine the influence of continuous-wave heteronuclear decoupling on symmetry-based double-quantum homonuclear dipolar recoupling, using experimental measurements, numerical simulations, and average Hamiltonian theory. There are two distinct regimes in which the heteronuclear interference effects are minimized. The first regime utilizes a moderate homonuclear recoupling field and a strong heteronuclear decoupling field; the second regime utilizes a strong homonuclear recoupling field and a weak or absent heteronuclear decoupling field. The second regime is experimentally accessible at moderate or high magic-angle-spinning frequencies and is particularly relevant for many realistic applications of solid-state NMR recoupling experiments to organic or biological materials. 相似文献

In solid-state NMR studies of minerals and ion conductors, quadrupolar nuclei like 7Li, 23Na or 133Cs are frequently situated in close proximity to fluorine, so that application of 19F decoupling is beneficial for spectral resolution. Here, we compare the decoupling efficiency of various multi-pulse decoupling sequences by acquiring 19F-decoupled 23Na-NMR spectra of cryolite (Na3AlF6). Whereas the MAS spectrum is only marginally affected by application of 19F decoupling, the 3Q-filtered 23Na signal is very sensitive to it, as the de-phasing caused by the dipolar interaction between sodium and fluorine is three-fold magnified. Experimentally, we find that at moderate MAS speeds, the decoupling efficiencies of the frequency-swept decoupling schemes SWf-TPPM and SWf-SPINAL are significantly better than the conventional TPPM and SPINAL sequences. The frequency-swept sequences are therefore the methods of choice for efficient decoupling of quadrupolar nuclei with half-integer spin from fluorine. 相似文献

Certain magic-angle spinning heteronuclear dipolar recoupling experiments using rotor-synchronized pulse trains require very precise control of the sample-spinning rate. An inexpensive spinning speed controller for use in magic-angle solid-state NMR experiments is described which can control the spinning rate to within +/- 0.2 Hz. The apparatus is based on a simple micro-controller and is self-contained. Experimental results are presented that show the importance of good spinning speed control. 相似文献

A multiple-pulse technique for complete dipolar decoupling of directly bonded13C-labeled sites is described. It achieves significant spectral simplifications in a recently introduced two-dimensional double-quantum solid-state NMR experiment for determining torsion angles. Both homonuclear and heteronuclear dipolar couplings are removed by combining a13C multiple-pulse sequence with continuous-wave irradiation on the protons. The13C sequence has a fundamental 10-pulse cycle which is a significantly modified magic-sandwich-echo sequence. The crucial heteronuclear decoupling is achieved by breaking the 360° “inner” pulses in the magic sandwich into 90° pulses and spacing them by1H 360° pulse lengths. Spectral artifacts typical of multiple-pulse sequences are eliminated by phase shifts between cycles. In contrast to many other multiple-pulse decoupling sequences, the long window in the cycle is the dwell time and can be longer than the inverse dipolar coupling, which makes the sequence practical for direct detection even with long pulse ring-down times. A modification of the sequence to scale the chemical shift and increase the effective spectral width is also presented. The 1D and double-quantum 2D experiments are demonstrated on polyethylene with 4%13C–13C spin pairs. The potential of this approach for distinguishing segmental conformations is illustrated by spectral simulations of the two-dimensional ridge patterns that correlate double-quantum and single-quantum chemical-shift anisotropies. 相似文献

Many heteronuclear NMR experiments employ decoupling to collapse the heteronuclear multiplet, using decoupling schemes with a periodic phase modulation like WALTZ, MLEV, or GARP. Because of the periodic nature of these schemes, cycling sidebands are generated, whose intensity can be strongly reduced by decoupling asynchronously. We show that the most common implementation of asynchronous decoupling on modern spectrometers is such that the cycling sidebands are subjected to a periodic modulation. For multidimensional experiments, this results in ridges that can seriously compromise the quality of the spectrum. Based on our model, the artifact in a 2D [(1)H]-(15)N NOE equilibrium experiment is simulated and it is shown that the artifact can be prevented by using synchronous decoupling. 相似文献

Efficient broadband decoupling of heteronuclear spin systems is accomplished by a modulation method which successively phase-modulates the irradiating radiofrequency field with two square-wave frequencies that have a frequency ratio of four to one. Experimental observations show this efficient utilization of decoupler power can increase the signal heights by reducing residual splittings which broaden spectral lines. Compared to random-noise decoupling, line narrowing and signal-to-noise improvements of a factor of 3 are observed for proton-decoupled carbon-13 and phosphorus-31 NMR spectra. Efficient spin decoupling with only 1.5 W of decoupling power is demonstrated using this new modulation method. 相似文献

Many solid-state spectra have been shown to have problems related to the poor proton decoupling of carbon nuclei in methylene groups under conditions of slow magic-angle turning. Two-pulse phase-modulation (TPPM) decoupling during the 2D PHORMAT chemical shift separation experiment is shown to be more effective in comparison to that obtainable at much higher spin rates using conventional CW decoupling. TPPM decoupling can also alleviate similar inadequacies when observing the 15N nucleus, particularly with NH2 groups. This is demonstrated in the 15N resonances of fully labeled l-arginine hydrochloride, where a line narrowing of about a factor of two was observed at moderate rotation rates. This significant advantage was also obtained at turning frequencies as low as 500 Hz. 相似文献

High resolution 2D NMR MAS spectra of liposomes, in particular 1H-13C chemical shifts correlations have been obtained on fluid lipid bilayers made of pure phospholipids for several years. We have investigated herein the possibility to obtain high resolution 2D MAS spectra of cholesterol embedded in membranes, i.e. on a rigid molecule whose dynamics is characterized mainly by axial diffusion without internal segmental mobility. The efficiency of various pulse sequences for heteronuclear HETCOR has been compared in terms of resolution, sensitivity and selectivity, using either cross polarization or INEPT for coherence transfer, and with or without MREV-8 homonuclear decoupling during t1. At moderately high spinning speed (9 kHz), a similar resolution is obtained in all cases (0.2 ppm for 1H(3,4), 0.15 ppm for 13C(3,4) cholesterol resonances), while sensitivity increases in the order: INEPT < CP(x4) < CP + MREV. At reduced spinning speed (5 kHz), the homonuclear dipolar coupling between the two geminal protons attached to C(4) gives rise to spinning sidebands from which one can estimate a H-H dipolar coupling of 10 kHz which is in good agreement with the known dynamics of cholesterol in membranes. 相似文献
