NMR (PG503) Solid-state NMR: Anisotropic interactions and how we use them Dr Philip Williamson February 2009
Methods for transfer polarization and their application Know how to manipulate anisotropic interactions to gain in resolution and sensitivity These anisotropic interactions contain lots of structural/dynamic information If we can selectively reintroduce these interactions we can obtain the information they encode Need methods that selectively reintroduce these interactions when we perform MAS
Methods for transfer polarization and their application Overview dipolar recoupling under magic angle spinning: • Heteronuclear dipolar couplings: a) Cross Polarization (moving from HX to XY) b) REDOR 2) Homonuclear dipolar recoupling methods a) selective (rotational resonance) b) broadband (proton driven spin diffusion/C7)
“Hahn’s Ingenious Concept1” (1) Normally two heteronuclear spins resonate at wI=gIB0and wS=gSB0 and pulses applied to I or S affect I or S. If we apply resonant fields to I and S they precess with a frequency WI=gIB1Iand WS=gSB1S We can make the precession frequencies match by adjusting the frequency B1 of individual nuclei. When these conditions match we obtain the so called Hartmann-Hahn condition: gIB1I=gSB1S z z y y x x MS MI WI WS BI BS 1) Principles of magnetic resonance, C.P. Slichter p277
“Hahn’s Ingenious Concept1” (2) Fulfilled Hartmann-Hahn condition gIB1I=gSB1S I spin in close proximity to S spin so we have a strong heteronuclear dipolar coupling: Thus we can get resonant transfer of energy from the I to the S spin. z z yI yS xI xS MS MI WI WS BI BS 1) Principles of magnetic resonance, C.P. Slichter p277
Experimentally what is observed(1) • The width of the matching condition is proportional to the strength of the dipolar coupling in both the static and MAS cross-polarisation experiment. 1H-13C 15N-13C
Weaker couplings:Increased problems with relaxation Weaker couplings Slow buildup – transfer quenched Weaker couplings Slow buildup – transfer quenched

Averaging of anisotropic interactions Anisotropic interactions oscillate with a wr and 2wr dependence under MAS e.g. CSA If we want to selectively reintroduce them under MAS we want to find a way of selectively disrupting this averaging.
Spin/Spatial Interactions Anisotropic interactions are time dependent under MAS Can interfere with MAS selectively disturbing averaging process Example apply p pulses during rotor cycle results in non-zero contribution from heteronuclear dipolar coupling wI2DIS(.. . sin(wr) + .. . sin(2wr)) . Ix

Rotation Resonance - Summary • Advantages • Recoupling selective • When sensitivity/analysis allows geometries can be determined with high resolution • Disadvantages • Only one spin pair recoupled at once • Makes analysis of large labelled molecules difficult • On resonance lines are broadened reducing resolution and sensitivity
Proton driven spin diffusion • Interactions between 1H and low g nuclei remain • Transfer driven by: • heteronuclear coupling between 1H and low g nuclei • 1H-1H homonuclear interactions not averaged by MAS
Spin diffusion Assignment and structure determination of SH3
Problems with PDSD • At high fields/MAS frequencies • Chemical increases meaning 1H-1H couplings are no longer homogeneous • MAS more effectively averages 1H-1H couplings • Results in attenuation of PDSD • Requires longer mixing times • Reduced sensitivity due to T1 relaxation
