Abstract:Although solid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a versatile analytical tool to study polymorphs and phase transitions of pharmaceutical molecules and products, this work summarizes examples of spontaneous and unexpected (and unwanted) structural rearrangements and phase transitions (amorphous‐to‐crystalline and crystalline‐to‐crystalline) under magic angle spinning (MAS) conditions, some of them clearly being due to the pressure experienced by the samples. It is widely known that such changes can ofte… Show more
“…The spinning induced pressure during MAS has been used, for instance, to study the kinetics of the mechanochemical halogen bond formation involving triphenylphosphine oxide and paradiiodotetrafluorobenzene, [23] to induce polymorphic forms of sodium acetate obtained by solid-state dehydration of sodium acetate trihydrate, [24] and to observe the phase transitions (amorphous-to-crystalline and crystalline-to-crystalline) of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), such as atorvastatin calcium, ezetimibe, and efavirenz. [25] Nonetheless, the mechanistic insights uniquely offered by the NMR analysis of mechanochemically-induced reactions, are required to shed light on the often unprecedented reactivity in ball-milling devices. This study thus aims at systematically investigating the potential of MAS solidstate NMR in characterizing an organic reaction performed in a ball mill by ex-and in situ methods.…”
The mechanochemical bromination of a heterocyclic sulfoximine is studied by ex-and in-situ solid-state NMR spectroscopy. A clean and fast reaction is observed in a mixer mill, which can alternatively be induced either using the centrifugal pressure of magic-angle spinning or by solely magnetic stirring the solid entities.

“…As the actual temperature in the MAS rotor could be up to 30 °C higher than the set value due to the frictional heating upon rotation, [27] we can state that there is no observable shift of the Hbond peaks at the temperature of T actual = 32-78 °C. Similarly, the presence of still associated UPy moieties can be also evidenced by their immobility in their 13 C NMR spectra (see 13 C NMR spectra recorded under cross polarization (CP) and direct excitation (DE) [27] ); b) 1 H MAS NMR spectra of samples cp0, cp25, cp50, and cp75 with different IL content (recorded at 5 °C actual sample temperature and a maximum stable MAS frequency of 15 kHz due to their gel nature under rotation). Though the DADA (donor-acceptor-donoracceptor) H-bonding array of UPy dimers is possible due to the tautomeric exchange, all the UPy dimers in this work are assumed to be in their most stable DDAA array.…”

“…[ 23,33 ] Upon heating from 23 to 53 °C, these peaks do not shift to lower ppm values, forming evidence for still un‐dissociated UPy moieties. As the actual temperature in the MAS rotor could be up to 30 °C higher than the set value due to the frictional heating upon rotation, [ 27 ] we can state that there is no observable shift of the H‐bond peaks at the temperature of T actual = 32–78 °C. Similarly, the presence of still associated UPy moieties can be also evidenced by their immobility in their 13 C NMR spectra (see 13 C NMR spectra recorded under cross polarization (CP) and direct excitation (DE) conditions in the Figure S2, Supporting Information).…”

Hydrogen bonds (H‐bonds) are highly sensitive to the surrounding environments owing to their dipolar nature, with polar solvents kown to significantly weaken H‐bonds. Herein, the stability of the H‐bonding motif ureidopyrimidinone (UPy) is investigated, embedded into a highly polar polymeric ionic liquid (PIL) consisting of pendant pyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (IL) moieties, to study the influence of such ionic environments on the UPy H‐bonds. The content of the surrounding IL is changed by addition of an additional low molecular weight IL to further boost the IL content around the UPy moieties in molar ratios of UPy/IL ranging from 1/4 up to 1/113, thereby promoting the polar microenvironment around the UPy‐H‐bonds. Variable‐temperature solid‐state MAS NMR spectroscopy and FT‐IR spectroscopy demonstrate that the UPy H‐bonds are largely present as (UPy‐) dimers, but sensitive to elevated temperatures (>70 °C). Subsequent rheology and DSC studies reveal that the ILs only solvate the polymeric chains but do not interfere with the UPy‐dimer H‐bonds, thus accounting for their high stability and applicability in many material systems.
“…Da bei der Messung durch die notwendige Probenrotation starke Kräfte auf die teilweise metastabilen (amorphen) Proben wirken, ist immer darauf zu achten, ob es zu Veränderungen, etwa Phasenumwandlungen kommt. 6) Neben der Untersuchung und Verbesserung der Transportmaterialien (Mizellen, Hydrogele) arbeiten wir an der Analyse intermolekularer Wechselwirkungen mit chemischen und biologischen Umgebungen. Simulationen ungeordneter Umgebungen runden die Experimente ab.…”
