ABSTRACT
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is fundamental in the natural sciences, from chemical analysis and structural biology, to medicine and physics. Despite its enormous achievements, one of its most severe limitations is the low sensitivity, which arises from the small population difference of nuclear spin states. Methods such as dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization and parahydrogen induced hyperpolarization can enhance the NMR signal by several orders of magnitude, however, their intrinsic limitations render multidimensional hyperpolarized liquid-state NMR a challenge. Here, we report an instrumental design for 9.4 Tesla liquid-state dynamic nuclear polarization that enabled enhanced high-resolution NMR spectra in one and two-dimensions for small molecules, including drugs and metabolites. Achieved enhancements of up to two orders of magnitude translate to signal acquisition gains up to a factor of 10,000. We show that hyperpolarization can be transferred between nuclei, allowing DNP-enhanced two-dimensional 13C-13C correlation experiments at 13C natural abundance. The enhanced sensitivity opens up perspectives for structural determination of natural products or characterization of drugs, available in small quantities. The results provide a starting point for a broader implementation of DNP in liquid-state NMR.
