Magnetic-Field Dependence of LC-Photo-CIDNP in the Presence of Target Molecules Carrying a Quasi-Isolated Spin Pair.

ABSTRACT: NMR spectroscopy is well known for its superb resolution, especially at high applied magnetic field. However, the sensitivity of this technique is very low. Liquid-state low-concentration photo-chemically-induced dynamic nuclear polarization (LC-photo-CIDNP) is a promising emerging methodology capable of enhancing NMR sensitivity in solution. LC-photo-CIDNP works well on solvent-exposed Trp and Tyr residues, either in isolation or within proteins. This study explores the magnetic-field dependence of the LC-photo-CIDNP experienced by two tryptophan isotopologs in solution upon in situ LED-mediated optical irradiation. Out of the two uniformly ¹³C,¹⁵N-labeled Trp (Trp-U-¹³C,¹⁵N) and Trp-α-¹³C-β,β,2,4,5,6,7-d₇ species em
