Download or read book Solid State NMR Spectroscopy for Biopolymers written by Hazime Saitô and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-08-05 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘‘Biopolymers’’ are polymeric materials of biological origin, including globular, membrane, and fibrous proteins, polypeptides, nucleic acids, po- saccharides, lipids, etc. and their assembly, although preference to respe- ive subjects may be different among readers who are more interested in their biological significance or industrial and/or medical applications. Nevert- less, characterizing or revealing their secondary structure and dynamics may be an equally very important and useful issue for both kinds of readers. Special interest in revealing the 3D structure of globular proteins, nucleic acids, and peptides was aroused in relation to the currently active Structural Biology. X-ray crystallography and multidimensional solution NMR sp- troscopy have proved to be the standard and indispensable means for this purpose. There remain, however, several limitations to this end, if one intends to expand its scope further. This is because these approaches are not always straightforward to characterize fibrous or membrane proteins owing to extreme difficulty in crystallization in the former, and insufficient spectral resolution due to sparing solubility or increased effective molecular mass in the presence of surrounding lipid bilayers in the latter.

Download or read book Multidimensional Solid State NMR and Polymers written by Klaus Schmidt-Rohr and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NMR spectroscopy is the most valuable and versatile analytical tool in chemistry. While excellent monographs exist on high-resolution NMR in liquids and solids, this is the first book to address multidimensional solid-state NMR. Multidimensional techniques enable researchers to obtain detailed information about the structure, dynamics, orientation, and phase separation of solids, which provides the basis of a better understanding of materials properties on the molecular level.Dramatic progress-much of it pioneered by the authors-has been achieved in this area, especially in synthetic polymers. Solid-state NMR now favorably competes with well-established techniques, such as light, x-ray, or neutron scattering, electron microscopy, and dielectric and mechanical relaxation.The application of multidimensional solid-state NMR inevitably involves use of concepts from different fields of science. This book also provides the first comprehensive treatment of both the new experimental techniques and the theoretical concepts needed in more complex data analysis. The text addresses spectroscopists and polymer scientists by treating the subject on different levels; descriptive, technical, and mathematical approaches are used when appropriate. It presents an overview of new developments with numerous experimental examples and illustrations, which will appeal to readers interested in both the information content as well as the potential of solid-state NMR. The book also contains many previously unpublished details that will be appreciated by those who want to perform the experiments. The techniques described are applicable not only to the study of synthetic polymers but to numerous problems in solid-state physics, chemistry, materials science, and biophysics. - Presents original theories and new perspectives on scattering techniques - Provides a systematic treatment of the whole subject - Gives readers access to previously unpublished material - Includes extensive illustrations

Instructive and practical, this volume provides the basic knowledge needed to access the general literature and the more advanced monographs on this subject. In addition to assisting entrance into the field, Transient Techniques in NMR of Solids will be a useful guide for professionals already working in related areas of chemistry. FROM THE PREFACE: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is truly a remarkable phenomenon. Remarkable can imply different things to different people. From the point of view of a physicist, spin dynamics is an elegant example of the use of time-dependent quantum mechanics, and NMR absorption of energy is a prototype for spectroscopic transitions. From the point of view of the practicing chemist and materials scientist, NMR spectroscopy is an invaluable tool for the identification of chemical species and structures. Had NMR spectroscopic techniques commercially available in the early 1960s been the only result of investigations of this phenomenon, it would have had a major impact on the course of chemical analysis. The study of liquids and solutions for chemical shifts and couplings of protons had produced a rapid means of identifying chemical species nondestructively. The study of dynamical properties also could be addressed by study of temperature dependence of the spectra or of the saturation of the resonance by high-power irradiation. Even at that time, however, studies of the spin dynamics had already begun to indicate that there were many interesting facets of the NMR phenomenon left to exploit. For example, the Fourier-transform relationship of the free-induction decay and the absorption spectrum had been shown and the basis of the cross-polarization experiment was being investigated. A number of chemists had begun to study the spin*b1lattice relaxation times of species by pulse NMR techniques by utilizing methods that were not familiar at that time to the typical chemist but that are now commonly employed in NMR analysis. The principal characteristic of the NMR technique that makes it so useful for chemical analysis of liquids and solutions is the high resolution that allows one to observe very small interactions such as the chemical shift and the spin*b1spin coupling. These weak interactions are quite sensitive to the local environment of the spin and therefore may be used as a diagnostic for the environment. The connectivity of chemical structure is often mimicked closely in the NMR connectivity of the spectrum, and quantitative informaton is relatively easy to obtain. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of solids exhibit such resolution only in special cases. The primary (although not the exclusive) reason for the lack of resolution in the spectrum of a typical solid is the presence of the dipole*b1dipole interaction, which dominates the NMR spectroscopy of solids that have been of interest to chemists. One solution (no pun intended) to the problem of obtaining chemical-shift information about such solids is to dissolve them and to study them in solution. However, if the solid is insoluble or otherwise intractable or if the analysis involves questions about the properties of the substance in the solid state, then there arises a need for techniques to study the weaker interactions in the presence of the dipole*b1dipole interaction or other overwhelming interactions. This volume describes the means dev
Download or read book Solid State NMR Spectroscopy written by Melinda J. Duer and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for those familiar with solution-state NMR who are encountering solid-state NMR for the first time. It presents the current understanding and applications of solid-state NMR with a rigorous but readable approach, making it easy for someone who merely wishes to gain an overall impression of the subject without details. This dual requirement is met through careful construction of the material within each chapter. The book is divided into two parts: "Fundamentals" and "Further Applications." The section on Fundamentals contains relatively long chapters that deal with the basic theory and practice of solid-state NMR. The essential differences and extra scope of solid-state NMR over solution-state is dealt with in an introductory chapter. The basic techniques that all chapters rely on are collected into a second chapter to avoid unnecessary repetition later. Remaining chapters in the "Fundamentals" part deal with the major areas of solid-state NMR which all solid-state NMR spectroscopists should know about. Each begins with an overview of the topic that puts the chapter in context. The basic principles upon which the techniques in the chapter rely are explained in a separate section. Each of these chapters exemplifies the principles and techniques with the applications most commonly found in current practice. The "Further Applications" section contains a series of shorter chapters which describe the NMR techniques used in other, more specific areas. The basic principles upon which these techniques rely will be expounded only if not already in the Fundamentals part.

Download or read book NMR Spectroscopy written by Harald Günther and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-13 with total page 842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful and widely used techniques in chemical research for investigating structures and dynamics of molecules. Advanced methods can even be utilized for structure determinations of biopolymers, for example proteins or nucleic acids. NMR is also used in medicine for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The method is based on spectral lines of different atomic nuclei that are excited when a strong magnetic field and a radiofrequency transmitter are applied. The method is very sensitive to the features of molecular structure because also the neighboring atoms influence the signals from individual nuclei and this is important for determining the 3D-structure of molecules. This new edition of the popular classic has a clear style and a highly practical, mostly non-mathematical approach. Many examples are taken from organic and organometallic chemistry, making this book an invaluable guide to undergraduate and graduate students of organic chemistry, biochemistry, spectroscopy or physical chemistry, and to researchers using this well-established and extremely important technique. Problems and solutions are included.
Download or read book NMR of Quadrupolar Nuclei in Solid Materials written by Roderick E. Wasylishen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-12-19 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NMR OF QUADRUPOLAR NUCLEI IN SOLID MATERIALS Over the past 20 years technical developments in superconducting magnet technology and instrumentation have increased the potential of NMR spectroscopy so that it is now possible to study a wide range of solid materials. In addition, one can probe the nuclear environments of many other additional atoms that possess the property of spin. In particular, it is possible to carry out NMR experiments on isotopes that have nuclear spin greater that 1⁄2 (i.e. quadrupolar nuclei). Since more that two-thirds of all NMR active isotopes are quadrupolar nuclei, applications of NMR spectroscopy with quadrupolar nuclei are increasing rapidly. The purpose of this handbook is to provide under a single cover the fundamental principles, techniques and applications of quadrupolar NMR as it pertains to solid materials. Each chapter has been prepared by an expert who has made significant contributions to out understanding and appreciation of the importance of NMR studies of quadrupolar nuclei in solids. The text is divided into three sections: The first provides the reader with the background necessary to appreciate the challenges in acquiring and interpreting NMR spectra of quadrupolar neclei in solids. The second presents cutting-edge techniques and methodology for employing these techniques to investigate quadrupolar nuclei in solids. The final section explores applications of solid-state NMR studies of solids ranging from investigations of dynamics, characterizations of biological samples, organic and inorganic materials, porous materials, glasses, catalysts, semiconductors and high-temperature superconductors.
