Rotating-frame Overhauser spectroscopy ROESY

Chiappe et al. reported the use of rotating-frame Overhauser spectroscopy (ROESY) and HOESY to investigate two pyrazolium-based ILs with different anions [83]. Using homo- and heteronuclear NOE, they showed the presence of aggregation, how sensitive the aggregation is to steric hindrance, and the nature of anions. Specifically they found that aggregation motives are in a head-to-tail and head-to-head manner. From the HOESY experiments, the researchers probed the formation of loose ion pairs, which are also sensitive to steric effects. Castner s group has utilized H— F HOESY to probe-specific cation—anion interactions for isoelectronic... 

Multidimensional spectraas well as techniques including DEPT (distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer), COSY (correlated spectroscopy), and ROESY (rotating-frame overhauser enhancement spectroscopy) have been increasingly used.

In order to combat this, the rotating frame Overhauser effect spectroscopy (ROESY) techniques can be employed. An in-depth discussion of how this technique works is outside the remit of this book but suffice to say, in the ROESY methods (1- and 2-D), NOE data is acquired as if in a weak r.f. field rather than in a large, static magnetic field and this assures that all NOEs are present and positive, irrespective of tumbling rate and magnet size. It is possible that some TOCSY correlations can break through in ROESY spectra but these will have opposite phase to the genuine ROESY correlations and so should therefore not be a problem - unless they should overlap accidentally with them. A 2-D ROESY spectrum of the naphthalene compound is shown below (Spectrum 8.6).

Various studies were focusing on the conformational behavior of the cinchonan carbamate selectors in free and complexed form, which could readily be derived from the dihedral coupling constant of the Hs-Hg protons ( /hsh9) and intramolecular NOEs as measured by 2D-NOESY [92,93] or two-dimensional rotating frame Overhauser effect spectroscopy (2D-ROESY) [65] spectra.

In Chapter 3 (Section 3.16), there is a description of the nuclear Overhauser effect difference experiment, an experiment that provides information about H— H through-space proximity. Review of this section is helpful before proceeding here. The ROESY experiment, rotating-frame Overhauser effect spectroscopy, is a useful 2-D analogue of the nuclear Overhauser effect difference experiment. This experiment is useful for molecules of all sizes whereas the related experiment, NOESY (nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy), is not very useful with small molecules. NOESY is used primarily with biological macromolecules. Both NOESY and ROESY experiments correlate protons that are close to each other in space, typically 4.5 A or less. 

ROESY (rotating frame Overhauser effect spectroscopy) is a variant of NOESY, in which the transfer of magnetization occurs on the spin-lock axis in the x-y plane rather than on the z axis (Fig. B.9). A continuous low-power radio frequency pulse provides the mixing by effectively reducing the field strength (Bq in the laboratory frame on the z axis to B in... 

A 2002 review by Reynolds and Enriquez describes the most effective pulse sequences for natural product structure elucidation.86 For natural product chemists, the review recommends HSQC over HMQC, T-ROESY (transverse rotating-frame Overhauser enhancement) in place of NOESY (nuclear Over-hauser enhancement spectroscopy) and CIGAR (constant time inverse-detected gradient accordion rescaled) or constant time HMBC over HMBC. HSQC spectra provide better line shapes than HMQC spectra, but are more demanding on spectrometer hardware. The T-ROESY or transverse ROESY provides better signal to noise for most small molecules compared with a NOESY and limits scalar coupling artefacts. In small-molecule NMR at natural abundance, the 2D HMBC or variants experiment stands out as one of the key NMR experiments for structure elucidation. HMBC spectra provide correlations over multiple bonds and, while this is desirable, it poses the problem of distinguishing between two- and three-bond correlations. 

We described the basic aspects of NOESY in Section 10.1 as an introductory example of a 2D experiment. NOESY is very widely used in measuring macro-molecular conformation, as we see in Chapter 13. However, as shown in Fig. 8.4, the H— H nuclear Overhauser enhancement 17 varies from its value of +0.5 in small molecules to a limiting value of — 1 in large polymers with very long Tc, and at intermediate values of rc the NOE may vanish. An alternative is to use the NOE measured in the rotating frame, as this quantity is always positive. By analogy to NOESY, this technique has the acronym ROESY (rotating frame Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy),... 

A complex, multiply bridged 1,2,3,4-adduct of C60 (168) (Scheme 1.11) including a noninherently chiral addition pattern as well as a multitude of stereogenic centers in the addend moiety was obtained in a tandem reaction between the alkaloid scandine and Ceo-324 The sequence included a photoin-duced addition of the tertiary amine subunit of the alkaloid and a [2 + 2] cycloaddition of its vinyl group to the adjacent intrahexagonal formal double bond of the fullerene. The structural elucidation included 1H-1 H COSY-, HMQC- (heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence), HMBC-, and ROESY-(rotating frame Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy) NMR experiments and...
