Abstract

A formal description of zero-quantum (ZQ) NMR processes using multipole-multimode Floquet theory is proposed for studying polarization transfer in magic angle spinning experiments. Specifically, we investigate the factors affecting the accuracy and precision of 13C-13C distance measurements that are based on ZQ-magnetization exchange processes in rotational resonance width experiments. With suitable examples drawn from measurements in N-acetyl-[U-13C,15N]-L-valine-L-leucine, we substantiate our approach and propose methods for improving the accuracy and reliability of such 13C-13C distance measurements in uniformly 13C, 15N-labeled solids. In addition, the theoretical model presented in this article provides a more general framework for describing relaxation phenomena involving multiple decay rate constants in zero-quantum processes.
