Among protons

The similarity of the retrieved protons to those of the query structure, and the distribution of chemical shifts among protons with the same HOSE codes, can be used as measures of prediction reliability. When common substructures cannot be found for a given proton (within a predefined number of bond spheres) interpolations are applied to obtain a prediction proprietary methods are often used in commercial programs. 

If any equilibrium constants show this linearity, this behavior is most likely to be found among proton transfers of type (118) and type (120). The expressions for log K given in Table 11 show this linearity they represent, within the experimental error, the accurate data obtained by measurements on three proton transfers in aqueous solution. All three are of the type (120). 

Because of large coupling constants between 13C and H (as compared to the coupling constants between H nuclei), polarization transfer to 13C nuclei is more effective than among protons. It appears that the maximum distance for transfer of polarization between protons (i.e., in 1H-PHIP-NMR) is about three bonds, whereas it is five for 13C-PHIP-NMR. 

As stated in Section II.B of Chapter 2, the actual correlation time for electron-nuclear dipole-dipole relaxation, is dominated by the fastest process among proton exchange, rotation, and electron spin relaxation. It follows that if electron relaxation is the fastest process, the proton correlation time Xc is given by electron-spin relaxation times Tie, and the field dependence of proton relaxation rates allows us to obtain the electron relaxation times and their field dependence, thus providing information on electron relaxation mechanisms. If motions faster than electron relaxation dominate Xc, it is only possible to set lower limits for the electron relaxation time, but we learn about some aspects on the dynamics of the system. In the remainder of this section we will deal with systems where electron relaxation determines the correlation time.

Results similar to those shown in the slice of Fig. 8.22 can be obtained with the so-called NOE-NOESY sequence [36]. Here a hyperfine shifted signal, e.g. I2-CH3 of the above compound, is selectively saturated, and then the NOESY pulse sequence is applied. The NOESY difference spectrum obtained by subtracting a NOESY spectrum without presaturation of the I2-CH3 signal is shown in Fig. 8.23. Here, some more cross peaks are evident with respect to the 3D NOESY-NOESY experiment because secondary NOEs develop much more when the primary NOEs from the I2-CH3 signal evolve in a steady state experiment like the NOE-NOESY rather than in a transient-type experiment like the NOESY-NOESY. In Fig. 8.23, dipolar connectivity patterns are apparent among protons... 

We described the nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) among protons in Section 3.16 we now discuss the het-eronuclear NOE, which results from broadband proton decoupling in 13C NMR spectra (see Figure 4.1b). The net effect of NOE on 13C spectra is the enhancement of peaks whose carbon atoms have attached protons. This enhancement is due to the reversal of spin populations from the predicted Boltzmann distribution. The total amount of enhancement depends on the theoretical maximum and the mode of relaxation. The maximum possible enhancement is equal to one-half the ratio of the nuclei s magnetogyric ratios (y s) while the... 

This is based on a particular model of the interactions among protons and electrons in dense liquid hydrogen, wherein the free energy is minimized to identify the preferred phases. An alternative model that assumes that the PPT is replaced by a continuous transition from molecular to metallic hydrogen can better ht much of the shock data (Ross, 1998). However, this theory is ad hoc and some of the data it does ht have been called into question (Hubbard et al., 1999). 

The methodologies based on H- H COSY and NOESY experiments are the most sensitive, as they rely on detection of high-sensitivity, abundant nuclei. COSY provides correlations among atoms that are /-coupled, while NOESY provides those among protons based on their separation in space. The drawback of using these homonuclear 2D methods is their complexity, as two coupled protons can produce many peaks in the 2D spectrum. 

Calculations at various levels allowed to determine slight variations among proton affinities and bond strengths of C-C bonds in straight-chain alkanes " and isobutane,which are relevant to cracking mechanisms. 

It is desirable to apply fields of strong enough amplitude so that dominates all other interaction Hamiltonians except for the Zeeman interaction. The rf pulses can then be treated as infinitely short delta pulses, and the analysis of the experimental spectra becomes comparatively simple. However, arcing in the probe limits useful amplitudes to the order of 200 kHz, so that in solid-state NMR the delta-pulse approximation must be treated with care for the dipole-dipole interaction among protons, and it breaks down for the quadrupole interaction. 

Applications of NMR imaging outside the medical field have been published in a variety of books and journals [8-13, 21, 86, 108-115]. A rather important subject for applications of NMR imaging is polymer science, as polymers are rich in protons, the most sensitive, stable NMR nucleus, and many polymer materials are often soft, so that the homonuclear dipole-dipole interaetion among protons is partially averaged by molecular motion. Thus, polymers are far more suitable to NMR imaging than for instance ceramic materials. 

Long-range correlations based on the HSQC sequence are generally less effective. Significant evolution of H- H couplings during the A period leads to unwanted COSY-type transfers among protons by the second 90° proton pulse of the INEPT sequence, a problem not foimd with HMBC. 

An atoms nucleus contains positively charged protons and neutral neutrons. Protons and neutrons are referred to as nucleons. Despite the strong electrostatic repulsion forces among protons, all nucleons remain bound in the dense nucleus because of the strong nuclear force. The strong nuclear force acts on subatomic particles that are extremely close together and overcomes the electrostatic repulsion among protons.

The characterization of the segmental motions of polymers is difficult, especially in concentrated solutions. One technique that is well suited to study polymer segmental motions is NMR relaxation measurement.(i, Studies have mostly focussed on the carbon or proton relaxation behavior at lower concentrations. Dipolar interactions among protons, or protons and tie the relaxation phenomena to local motions of polymer segments. Proton and techniques have been of limited use in more concentrated solutions, which to some extent is the most important regime for the development of many polymer properties. In more concentrated solutions, the overlap of spectral features and/or the complexity of the interactions make extracting motional information difficult, even if the relaxation measurements can be made. 

Nuclear forces are able to keep the nuclei in stable, bound states, in spite of the electric repulsion acting among protons. Consequently, the nuclear forces are basically attractive. 

The free-energy profile is calculated by the FEP/US method (see section 16.3.3.3). However, at each step of the molecular dynamics simulation, the vibrational energy and the wave function of the transferred proton are determined from a three-dimensional Schrodinger equation and are included in the FEP/US procedure. In addition, dynamical effects due to transitions among proton vibrational states are calculated with a molecular dynamics with quantum transition (MDQT) procedure in which the proton wave function evolution is determined by a time-dependent Schrodinger equation. This procedure is combined with a reactive flux approach to calculate the transmission... 

Solid-state NMR methods allow the investigation of local orientation, dynamics and conformational order of polymer chain segments. Si chemical shifts contain information about molecular moieties and about the conformation of chain segments. The line width of a wideline spectrum characterizes the strength of the dipolar couplings among protons and, therefore, the molecular mobility. H spin diffusion, mediated by the homonuclear dipolar couplings, is a powerful technique to obtain information about the spatial proximity of molecular moieties. These concepts have recently been combined in a two-dimensional Wideline Separation Experiment (WISE-NMR spectroscopy)...
