Long-lived nuclear spin states in rapidly rotating CH 2 D groups
Résumé
Although monodeuterated methyl groups support proton long-lived states, hindering of the methyl rotation limits the singlet relaxation time. We demonstrate an experimental case in which the rapid rotation of the CH 2 D group extends the singlet lifetime but does not quench the chemical shift difference between the CH 2 D protons, induced by the chiral environment. Proton singlet order is accessed using Spin-Lock Induced Crossing (SLIC) experiments, showing that the singlet relaxation time T S is over 2 minutes, exceeding the longitudinal relaxation time T 1 by a factor of more than 10. This result shows that proton singlet states may be accessible and long-lived in rapidly rotating CH 2 D groups.
