Exchange Rates by Nuclear Magnetic Multiple Resonance. III. Exchange Reactions in Systems with Several Nonequivalent Sites

Abstract

Articles you may be interested inFast simulation of dynamic two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectra for systems with many spins or exchange sitesThe nuclear magnetic multiple resonance method for the study of chellical exchange rates has been applied to systems in which a nucleus X is reversibly exchanged between three nonequivalent sites. A procedure is outlined, which is applicable to systems with any number of sites and permits the determination of the lifetime TK at anyone site K. In this procedure the effective "relaxation time" Tur and the equilibrium z magnetization, MoK(TIKITIK), are determined in experiments (Type I) in which the X signals at all other sites are completely saturated. The rate constants ]o..KL and ]o..LK of the individual exchange reactions (KpL) may then be determined in Type II experiments in which the signals of all sites excluding K and L are saturated. In Type II experiments only the equilibrium signal intensities need be measured.The method has been applied to the base-catalyzed proton exchange in the keto-enol system of acetylacetone and it was found that exchange between the olefinic CH and hydroxylic ---OH protons occurs merely as a consequence of the keto-enol transformation. Within the accuracy of the measurements no evidence was found for a proton exchange between the =CR and -OR protons which does not involve the CR, group in the keto form as an intermediate. * The earlier papers in this series are to be found in Refs. 1 and 2.t

The orientation and dynamics of substance P in lipid environments

“…Hydrogen exchange rates were determined by measuring the transfer of saturation of the amide proton signals from the H20 resonance as a function of pH (Forsen & Hoffman, 1963, 1964Krishna et al, 1979). The pH of the sample was adjusted to the desired value with HCl or NaOH and a one-dimensional proton spectrum acquired at 500 MHz with 1.5 s of pre-irradiation of the water resonance, an acquisition time of 1 s, a sweep width of 6,500 Hz, eight steady state pulses and 128 transients co-added.…”

Spin Saturation Transfer Difference NMR (SSTD NMR): A New Tool to Obtain Kinetic Parameters of Chemical Exchange Processes

“…Finally, providing a proper modification of the equations is made, 32 this method could be extended to deal with multi-site exchange and unequal populations, as it has been done in former double resonance experiments, [8][9] increasing the usefulness of this technique for the study of chemical exchange processes in challenging compounds.…”

Density dependence of rotational and translational molecular dynamics in liquids studied by high pressure NMR

“…At pressures p ~< 150 MPa all relaxation rates correspond to the fast motions limit, hence average oricntational correlation times ¢oR can be calculated with eqns (180,131) and eqn (45). A static OH-bond length Ro,=0.098 nm (493) has been used in these calculations, as the effect of the librations is negligible at high temperatures due to strong damping.…”
