Photochemical pump and NMR probe to monitor the formation and kinetics of hyperpolarized metal dihydrides.

ABSTRACT: On reaction of IrI(CO)(PPh₃)₂1 with para-hydrogen (p-H₂), Ir(H)₂I(CO)(PPh₃)₂2 is formed which exhibits strongly enhanced ¹H NMR signals for its hydride resonances. Complex 2 also shows similar enhancement of its NMR spectra when it is irradiated under p-H₂. We report the use of this photochemical reactivity to measure the kinetics of H₂ addition by laser-synchronized reactions in conjunction with NMR. The single laser pulse promotes the reductive elimination of H₂ from Ir(H)₂I(CO)(PPh₃)₂2 in C₆D₆ solution to form the 16-electron precursor 1, back reaction with p-H₂ then reforms 2 in a well-defined nuclear spin-state. The build up of this product can be followed by incrementing a precisely controlled delay (?), in millisecond steps, between the laser and the NMR pulse. The resulting signal vs. time profile shows a dependence on p-H₂ pressure. The plot of k_obs against p-H₂ pressure is linear and yields the second order rate constant, k₂, for H₂ addition to 1 of (3.26 ± 0.42) × 10² M^-1 s^-1. Validation was achieved by transient-UV-vis absorption spectroscopy which gives k₂ of (3.06 ± 0.40) × 10² M^-1 s^-1. Furthermore, irradiation of a C₆D₆ solution of 2 with multiple laser shots, in conjunction with p-H₂ derived hyperpolarization, allows the detection and characterisation of two minor reaction products, 2a and 3, which are produced in such low yields that they are not detected without hyperpolarization. Complex 2a is a configurational isomer of 2, while 3 is formed by substitution of CO by PPh₃.

Exploiting <i>in situ</i> NMR to monitor the formation of a metal-organic framework.

Project description:The formation processes of metal-organic frameworks are becoming more widely researched using in situ techniques, although there remains a scarcity of NMR studies in this field. In this work, the synthesis of framework MFM-500(Ni) has been investigated using an in situ NMR strategy that provides information on the time-evolution of the reaction and crystallization process. In our in situ NMR study of MFM-500(Ni) formation, liquid-phase 1H NMR data recorded as a function of time at fixed temperatures (between 60 and 100 °C) afford qualitative information on the solution-phase processes and quantitative information on the kinetics of crystallization, allowing the activation energies for nucleation (61.4 ± 9.7 kJ mol-1) and growth (72.9 ± 8.6 kJ mol-1) to be determined. Ex situ small-angle X-ray scattering studies (at 80 °C) provide complementary nanoscale information on the rapid self-assembly prior to MOF crystallization and in situ powder X-ray diffraction confirms that the only crystalline phase present during the reaction (at 90 °C) is phase-pure MFM-500(Ni). This work demonstrates that in situ NMR experiments can shed new light on MOF synthesis, opening up the technique to provide better understanding of how MOFs are formed.

Hyperpolarized Xe NMR signal advancement by metal-organic framework entrapment in aqueous solution.

Project description:We report hyperpolarized Xe signal advancement by metal-organic framework (MOF) entrapment (Hyper-SAME) in aqueous solution. The 129Xe NMR signal is drastically promoted by entrapping the Xe into the pores of MOFs. The chemical shift of entrapped 129Xe is clearly distinguishable from that of free 129Xe in water, due to the surface and pore environment of MOFs. The influences from the crystal size of MOFs and their concentration in water are studied. A zinc imidazole MOF, zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8), with particle size of 110 nm at a concentration of 100 mg/mL, was used to give an NMR signal with intensity four times that of free 129Xe in water. Additionally, Hyper-SAME is compatible with hyperpolarized 129Xe chemical exchange saturation transfer. The 129Xe NMR signal can be amplified further by combining the two techniques. More importantly, Hyper-SAME provides a way to make detection of hyperpolarized 129Xe in aqueous solution convenient and broadens the application area of MOFs.

A selective NMR probe to monitor the conformational transition from inactive to active kinase.

Project description:Kinases control many aspects of cellular signaling and are therefore therapeutic targets for numerous disease states. Monitoring the conformational changes that drive activation and inactivation of the catalytic kinase core is a challenging experimental problem due to the dynamic nature of these enzymes. We apply [(13)C] reductive methylation to chemically introduce NMR-active nuclei into unlabeled protein kinases. The results demonstrate that solution NMR spectroscopy can be used to monitor specific changes in the chemical environment of structurally important lysines in a [(13)C]-methylated kinase as it shifts from the inactive to active state. This approach provides a solution based method to complement X-ray crystallographic data and can be applied to nearly any kinase, regardless of size or method of production.

Rapid zero-trans kinetics of Cs+ exchange in human erythrocytes quantified by dissolution hyperpolarized 133Cs+ NMR spectroscopy.

Project description:Transmembrane flux of Cs+ (a K+ congener) was measured in human red blood cells (RBCs; erythrocytes) on the 10-s time scale. This is the first report on dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (dDNP) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with this nuclide in mammalian cells. Four technical developments regularized sample delivery and led to high quality NMR spectra. Cation-free media with the Piezo1 (mechanosensitive cation channel) activator yoda1 maximized the extent of membrane transport. First-order rate constants describing the fluxes were estimated using a combination of statistical methods in Mathematica, including the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm. Fluxes were in the range 4-70??mol Cs+ (L RBC)-1?s-1; these are smaller than for urea, but comparable to glucose. Methodology and analytical procedures developed will be applicable to transmembrane cation transport studies in the presence of additional Piezo1 effectors, to other cellular systems, and potentially in vivo.

A Double-Armed, Hydrophilic Transition Metal Complex as a Paramagnetic NMR Probe.

Project description:Synthetic metal complexes can be used as paramagnetic probes for the study of proteins and protein complexes. Herein, two transition metal NMR probes (TraNPs) are reported. TraNPs are attached through two arms to a protein to generate a pseudocontact shift (PCS) using cobalt(II), or paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) with manganese(II). The PCS analysis of TraNPs attached to three different proteins shows that the size of the anisotropic component of the magnetic susceptibility depends on the probe surroundings at the surface of the protein, contrary to what is observed for lanthanoid-based probes. The observed PCS are relatively small, making cobalt-based probes suitable for localized studies, such as of an active site. The obtained PREs are stronger than those obtained with nitroxide spin labels and the possibility to generate both PCS and PRE offers advantages. The properties of TraNPs in comparison with other cobalt-based probes are discussed.

Fluorescence-Detected Pump-Probe Spectroscopy.

Project description:We introduce a new approach to transient spectroscopy, fluorescence-detected pump-probe (F-PP) spectroscopy, that overcomes several limitations of traditional PP. F-PP suppresses excited-state absorption, provides background-free detection, removes artifacts resulting from pump-pulse scattering, from non-resonant solvent response, or from coherent pulse overlap, and allows unique extraction of excited-state dynamics under certain conditions. Despite incoherent detection, time resolution of F-PP is given by the duration of the laser pulses, independent of the fluorescence lifetime. We describe the working principle of F-PP and provide its theoretical description. Then we illustrate specific features of F-PP by direct comparison with PP, theoretically and experimentally. For this purpose, we investigate, with both techniques, a molecular squaraine heterodimer, core-shell CdSe/ZnS quantum dots, and fluorescent protein mCherry. F-PP is broadly applicable to chemical systems in various environments and in different spectral regimes.

NMR chemical exchange as a probe for ligand-binding kinetics in a theophylline-binding RNA aptamer.

Project description:The apparent on and off rate constants for binding of theophylline to its RNA aptamer in the absence of Mg(2+) were determined here by 2D (1)H-(1)H ZZ-exchange NMR spectroscopy. Analysis of the buildup rate of the exchange cross peaks for several base-paired imino protons in the RNA yielded an apparent k(on) of 600 M(-1) s(-1). This small apparent k(on) results because the free RNA exist as a dynamic equilibrium of inactive states rapidly interconverting with a low population of active species. The data found here indicate that the RNA aptamer employs a conformational selection mechanism for binding theophylline in the absence of Mg(2+). The kinetic data found here also explain a very unusual property of this RNA-theophylline system: slow exchange on the NMR chemical shift time scale for a weakly binding complex. To our knowledge, it is unprecedented to have such a weakly binding complex (K(d) approximately 3.0 mM at 15 degrees C) show slow exchange on the NMR chemical shift time scale, but the results clearly demonstrate that slow exchange and weak binding are readily rationalized by a small k(on). Comparisons with other ligand-receptor interactions are presented.

Hyperpolarized 89Y complexes as pH sensitive NMR probes.

Project description:Hyperpolarization can increase the sensitivity of NMR/MRI experiments, but the primary limitation is the T(1) decay of magnetization. Due to its long T(1), the hyperpolarized (89)Y nucleus makes an excellent candidate as an in vivo spectroscopy/imaging probe. Here we report the (89)Y chemical shift dependence upon pH for two hyperpolarized (89)Y(III) complexes and demonstrate how such complexes can be used as sensitive spectroscopy/imaging agents to measure pH.

Liquid metal enabled pump.

Project description:Small-scale pumps will be the heartbeat of many future micro/nanoscale platforms. However, the integration of small-scale pumps is presently hampered by limited flow rate with respect to the input power, and their rather complicated fabrication processes. These issues arise as many conventional pumping effects require intricate moving elements. Here, we demonstrate a system that we call the liquid metal enabled pump, for driving a range of liquids without mechanical moving parts, upon the application of modest electric field. This pump incorporates a droplet of liquid metal, which induces liquid flow at high flow rates, yet with exceptionally low power consumption by electrowetting/deelectrowetting at the metal surface. We present theory explaining this pumping mechanism and show that the operation is fundamentally different from other existing pumps. The presented liquid metal enabled pump is both efficient and simple, and thus has the potential to fundamentally advance the field of microfluidics.
