Abstract

Different types of immobilized free radicals as well as immobilized paramagnetic gadolinium(III) complexes were synthesized and used as relaxation agents to shorten the spin−lattice relaxation times T1 of analytes in quantitative continuous-flow 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The immobilized paramagnetic relaxation agents were characterized with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS). With these types of paramagnetic relaxation agents, it was possible to obtain a 4-fold increase in signal-to-noise ratio per unit time, and an almost quantitative NMR spectra in continuous-flow 13C NMR spectroscopy could be acquired with this method.
