NMR Spectroscopy: Principles and Applications Nagarajan Murali Exchange, Diffusion Lecture 11

Dynamics We talked about motions introducing a coupling between spins and its surrounding (lattice) leading to relaxation. Such motions are said to be in a time scale comparable to the reciprocal of Larmor frequency time scale. There are other types of motions in different time scales that affect NMR spectrum uniquely and such process can be delineated from the spectrum. The ability to extract motional information from the analysis of NMR spectrum renders this technique its uniqueness and this subject is known as dynamics by NMR.

Motional Time Scale Time scales of typical motional mechanisms relevant in NMR is summarized below:

Exchange, Diffusion In this lecture, we will focus on chemical exchange observed by NMR and effects of molecular diffusion. Exchange Spin Dynamics – Malcolm H.

Exchange If the motional processes involve making and breaking of chemical bonds and or conformational changes, then such processes are called Chemical Exchange.

Translational Motion In a liquid, molecules can undergo translations. Translations that are random and uncoordinated is called diffusion. Translational motion that is concerted and directed is called Flow.

Exchange NMR is capable of detecting Chemical Exchange of reactions in equilibrium and also detect exchange between indistinguishable reactants and products.

Exchange Let us focus on the symmetrical, slow (spectral time scale) two site exchange. A

B

The forward and backward reaction rate constants are equal (k s-1). The probability of making a transition in an interval t is kt. Five representative molecules jumping between the states A and B all starting from state A. k=3x10-3 s-1.

Exchange Let us say the chemical shift of a resonance when the molecule in state A is WA and it is WB in state B. Also define W = WA - WB , then the exchange is termed slow are fast based on the relative magnitude of k with respect to W .

Then the equilibrium constant K=k/k’ is equal to the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations [B]eq/[A]eq. In the fast exchange limit, k>>|(WA-WB)|/2, we get a single peak with position given by the mean of the two chemical shifts weighted by equilibrium concentration.

Diffusion Let us now focus on the translations that are random and un-coordinated called diffusion and the principle behind the measurement by NMR.

Diffusion The mean square root of distance a molecule moves in a given time t along z-direction by diffusion is given as 1 z rms  (2 Dt ) 2

Stokes-Einstein Equation

kB is the Boltzmann constant and  is the viscosity of the liquid. Larger molecule diffuses slowly.

Diffusion by NMR Diffusion can be measured by NMR by the use of pulse sequences that utilize pulsed field gradients.

Echo amplitude is maximum if =0 or no diffusion and when the area of the two gradients are equal.

 ( z )  zG

 ( z )  zG

Diffusion by NMR In the spin echo sequence, diffusion introduces attenuation of the echo signal as molecule randomly moves from one position to another and the net displacement along z during the interval between the gradients. B( z )  Gz

Flow - Convection Fluid flow (concerted motion) in NMR tube is generally an outcome of temperature gradient along the sample and is pronounced in the vertical z- direction.

Flow interferes with the measurement of diffusion as the decay of the signal is accelerated due to the additional translational motion.

Flow - Convection The effect of flow can be compensated under some circumstances, such as flow is laminar and flow is equal in both upward and downward directions.

These conditions are harder to meet with increasing tube diameter or the sample length.

Flow - Convection It can be shown that when the flow is laminar with constant velocity v, the equation of motion for M+ can be solved with the solution: 2   t t ' t t '      (t )  exp  D    g (t" )dt" dt ' exp  iv    g (t" )dt"dt '      0 0 0 0   

In reality, the velocity will not be constant along the tube and the superposition of all velocities will reduce the oscillatory flow integral as an attenuation. Also the imaginary part of the integral vanishes when the flow is equal in upward and downward directions along the tube.

Convection Compensation It should be noted that the attenuation by diffusion depends on the integral of the total gradient area square while the phase dispersion from flow depends just on the integral of the total gradient. Thus if the net phase dispersion from the gradients in the entire pulse sequence goes to zero the attenuation due to flow can be removed to first order. t t '

Here the molecules diffuse during delay T that is split into two equal parts and the coherence transfer pathway selection unwinds the phase due to flow during the second T/2 delay that was wound by the first T/2 delay.
