The Lipari-Szabo Model-Free Analysis as a Method for Study of Molecular Motion in Solid State Heteronuclear Systems Using NMR Off-Resonance.

In the present work, a new method for measuring motional parameters using the off-resonance technique was described. The Lipari-Szabo model-free formalism was used to analyze molecular dynamics in a heteronuclear system [1, 2]. Cross-relaxation solid state nuclear magnetic resonance off-resonance experiments were performed on a homebuilt pulse spectrometer operating at the frequency of 30.2 MHz for protons at temperature 173 K. The proton spins were spin-locked in the effective field [Formula: see text] while (19)F spins were continuously saturated for a long time. It was possible to carry out these experiments because a uniquely designed probe was able to produce three slightly differing frequencies on and off-resonance for protons and the frequency of 28.411 MHz for fluorine [3-6]. The off-resonance frequencies can be changed within the range of 30.2-30.6 MHz.
