A07 - Switchable field multidimensional NMR
since 07/2026
Residual anisotropic NMR parameters like RCSAs, RDCs, and RQCs provide highly valuable structural information. Three complementary approaches will be developed to measure these parameters accurately by rapidly switching alignment during individual scans of multidimensional experiments: i) application of strong electric fields, ii) mechanical gel stretching, and iii) application of shear forces. Corresponding devices will be designed, spin dynamcs under changing alignment conditions will be studied, and a variety of experiments will be developed and applied in molecular structure determination.
